◆ ATTRIBUTED TO THOMAS POOLEY (IRISH 1646-1723) HALF LENGTH PORTRAIT OF JONATHAN SWIFT AS A STUDENT With later inscription, feigned oval, oil on canvas (71cm x 58cm (28in x 22.75in))Provenance (supporting documents sold with the lot):1) Thomas Percy (1729-1811), Bishop of Dromore; acquired by him in 1801 from Anthony Trail or Traill (1755-1831) of Mount Druid, Ballycastle, later Archdeacon of Connor, who in two letters to Percy (27 April and 5 May 1801) describes his own acquisition of the work c.1790 from 'Gonne, a carver and gilder in Abbey Street', evidently the Henry Gonne (fl.1765-99) who is recorded as a carver and looking-glass seller at 26 Abbey Street, Dublin (Glin & Peill, Irish Furniture, 2007, p. 293):‘An old family mansion house in the Co of Louth was about to be pull’d down, previous to the erection of a new one, and all the pictures in it were sent up to Dublin to be sold, as the proprietor did not chuse to be at the expence of new frames for them, and thought they would be unsuitable ornaments for a new house in their old black ones. Not chusing to sell them separately, I was oblig’d to purchase the whole in order to get three or four of them that I lik’d. The account given me of the Dean’s picture was as follows – He had been while at college an intimate companion of the young gentlemen of the above family, and frequently spent his vacations with them in the country. During one of these visits a painter was employed to paint some portraits in the family, and the Dean’s was painted along the rest, and had remain’d in the house ever since. As no particular value was set upon the picture, and as I had express’d no particular desire of purchasing it, it is improbable that such a story should have been told me, if it had not been true. I am sorry however that I have forgot the name of the family, but it has escap’d my memory.'Thence by descent to:2) Mr Edward Richard Meade (1805-1890) of 5 Gloucester Place, Portman Square, London, the picture with him by 1867, when exhibited at South Kensington (see below). Meade was the grandson of Thomas Percy by the marriage of Percy’s daughter Elizabeth to Pierce Meade (1776-?), Archdeacon of Dromore (John Sharpe, Peerage of the British Empire, [1833], volume I, f. 2A6 v.).3) Miss Constance Meade (1852-1941), of 15 Eaton Terrace, Knightsbridge, London, daughter of Edward Richard Meade.4) Mr Kenneth George Francis Balfour (1909-1998), of Quoitings, Marlow, Buckinghamshire, nephew of Constance Meade.5) Mrs Virginia Cardwell Moore, of Coupar Angus, Perthshire.Exhibited:1) South Kensington Museum, Second Special Exhibition of National Portraits commencing with the Reign of William and Mary and ending the Year 1800, 1867.

RARE IRISH MILITIA FIELD OFFICER'S RED CLOTH UNIFORM COATEE, THE ROYAL QUEEN'S COUNTY MILITIA CIRCA with bullion shoulder epaulettes, black facings with hook and eye front fasteners with silver buttons pressed with GR in the centre and Queens County Regiment and seems ,the two tails with concealed pockets and terminating in a decorative silver wire knotProvenance: Likely to have belonged to Major Jonathan Cope Chetwode (b. 31 May 1757, d. 11 May 1839) traced from an internal label inscribed Woodbrook (the family seat in Ireland) The Estate of the late J. E. AdamNote: The militia regiment of Queen's County (now Co. Laois), the Royal Queen's County Militia, was originally raised in 1793 as the 25th Militia Battalion, one of only six Irish militia regiments allowed to bear the title ''Royal''. Re-designated the 104th Battalion following the militia reforms of 1833, it became the 4th Battalion Leinster Regiment (Queen's County Militia) following the army reforms of 1881. When initially raised, the Queen's County Militia was apparently a fine unit. A commentator of the time (December 1793), who had been expecting to see an ''undisciplined rabble'', in fact found the Queen's County Militia to be by ''no means inferior (in appearance) to that of any veteran regulars I ever met with, in point of personal consequence and acquired uniformity''. They took to the life of soldiering, and in 1796 they and the Dublin City Militia became the first two militia regiments to volunteer to serve outside Ireland. Major Jonathan Cope Chetwode (b. 31 May 1757, d. 11 May 1839), was the son of Valentine Knightley Chetwode and Henrietta Maria Cope. His estate was Woodbrook, near Portarlington, and Burke's Landed Gentry of Ireland (1958) and Lewis's Topographical Dictionary of Ireland (1837) acknowledge him as a Major in the Militia. Edith Mary Johnston-Liik (History of the Irish Parliament, (6 vols., Belfast, 2002) iii, 409) has him in his youth as a (?) Cornet in the Arlington Light Cavalry. Strickland (viz., Walter G. Strickland, ‘The Chetwoods of Woodbrook in the Queen's County. With a portrait and book plate of Knightley Chetwood, d. 1752 and a portrait of Hester Brooking his wife’, in Journal of the County Kildare Archaeological Society, Vol. IX, pp. 205-26, 273-6, 381-6, 410-15, 1918-22; Vol. X, pp. 32-6, 100-6, 150-3, 195-6, 1922-8) mentions service as Ensign in the 102nd and 14th Regiments. In 1781 he was High Sheriff of Queen's County, and from 1790 to 1797 M.P. for Downpatrick. He was twice married, but had no issue.
