Son of a Rake.- Pole-Tylney-Long-Wellesley (William Richard Arthur, fifth earl of Mornington, 1813-63) Approximately 28 Autograph Letters signed to Captain Arthur Palliser. 8vo and smaller, c. 78pp., Paris and addresses in London, 9th July 1857 - 27th July 1863, a sad correspondence, mostly concerning the earl's poor health, in the initial letter the earl is introduced into the House of Lords, and thereafter much of the content concerns his life in Paris and his growing illness, he talks of operations, goes to the consulate to sign a new will, and discusses selling bonds and property. The earl died unmarried, in Paris, in July 1863, still a rich man, folds; and 2 others, a draft letter by Mornington to his sister Victoria (1819-97), referring to a painful decision she has taken concerning a gentleman identified only by his initials, and a copy of the 1812 marriage settlement which prevented Long-Wellesley from completely devastating the family fortune, v.s., v.d. (c. 28).⁂ The fifth earl of Mornington was the son of a notorious rake. The fourth earl, William Long-Wellesley (1788-1857), married Catherine, the sister and coheir of Sir James Tylney-Long, of Draycot, Wiltshire. On her marriage her estates were said to beworth over £1 million a year. In 1823 Long-Wellesley abandoned his wife, who died two years later, and eloped with Helena Patterson Bligh. Spending as much as he could from his wife's estate, he was prevented by only having a life interest and the estate's devolvement on his eldest son William. When he sought to gain control of his children and their money, he was met with a furious defensive action by his uncle, the Duke of Wellington. Eventually he would be committed to the Fleet prison for contempt of court. His later years were spent in dissipation. He was financially supported to some extent by the Duke, "who suffered fools only when they came from the family." - Oxford DNB. On his mother's death in 1825 William inherited property which included what was left of the family's Wanstead Park estate in Essex laid waste by his father during his parents' brief marriage.

THE PERSONAL FIELD BINOCULARS OF COLONEL PATRICK ANTHONY PORTEOUS, V.C. (1918-2000) Awarded the Victoria Cross, Operation Cauldron, Dieppe, August 26th 1942 whilst attached to Lord Lovett's No.4 Commando, the French & Sons brown leather case, stamped 'P.A. Porteous', containing a pair of American Bausch & Lomb 6 x 30 field glasses, bearing War Department arrow devices, thought to have been carried by Major Porteous on the raid, together with related family photographs, newspaper cuttings and ephemera.Provenance: Gifted to Patrick Porteous's close friend Flying Officer Peter Duncan Morris, Patrick being the best man at Peter's wedding in London during the Second World War, thence by descent, written clarification provided.London Gazette 2nd October 1942War Office, 2nd October 1942.The KING has been graciously pleased to approve the award of The VICTORIA CROSS to: -Captain (temporary Major) Patrick Anthony Porteous (73033), Royal Regiment of Artillery (Fleet, Hants.).At Dieppe on the 19th August 1942, Major Porteous was detailed to act as Liaison Officer between the two detachments whose task was to assault the heavy coast defence guns.In the initial assault Major Porteous, working with the smaller of the two detachments, was shot at close range through the hand, the bullet passing through his palm and entering his upper arm. Undaunted, Major Porteous closed with his assailant, succeeded in disarming him and killed him with his own bayonet thereby saving the life of a British Sergeant on whom the German had turned his aim.In the meantime, the larger detachment was held up, and the officer leading this detachment was killed and the Troop Sergeant-Major fell seriously wounded. Almost immediately afterwards the only other officer of the detachment was also killed.Major Porteous, without hesitation and in the face of a withering fire, dashed across the open ground to take over the command of this detachment. Rallying them, he led them in a charge which carried the German position at the point of the bayonet and was severely wounded for the second time. Though shot through the thigh he continued to the final objective where he eventually collapsed from loss of blood after the last of the guns had been destroyed.Major Porteous's most gallant conduct, his brilliant leadership and tenacious devotion to a duty which was supplementary to the role originally assigned to him, was an inspiration to the whole detachment.Operation Cauldron as the assault on Dieppe was code-named, was the biggest raid of the Second World War; the attacking force of nearly 6,000 men was drawn from the 2nd Canadian Division and three British Commandos. The aim was to see if it was possible to capture a port on the French coast prior to a full-scale invasion. In the event, the raid proved such a disaster that on D-Day two years later landings on the open beaches were preferred. No 4 Commando, in which Porteous was serving, was the only unit to capture its objective. The Canadians, in the centre of the assault, had never been in action before, and to their dismay found that their tanks were unable to negotiate the stony beach; they were cut to pieces by fire from carefully sited strongpoints that had been tunnelled out of the cliff.When the landing force withdrew, it had suffered 3,670 casualties, lost 29 tanks, 106 aircraft and a destroyer. The Germans had lost 591 men. No 4 Commando, commanded by the intrepid Lord Lovat, numbered 252 soldiers. It landed three and a half miles west of the main attack and advanced in two sections.One was to make its way up a river valley, then climb a slope, push on through a wood, overcome defended positions and demolish the six-gun German battery which had been sited at Varengeville. The other section of the Commandos was to make a slightly more direct approach on the target. Porteous, then a temporary Captain, was liaison officer between the two groups.The Commandos crept forward in the dark and destroyed barbed wire, telephone lines and some German defences, and succeeded in crossing a minefield. When daylight came they were confronted by 35 German assault troops, whom they killed, but others soon took their place and the Commandos began to lose men too.During the initial assault on the battery, Porteous found himself with the smaller of the two detachments. He was shot at close range by a German, the bullet passing through his hand and his arm. Undaunted, Porteous, using the other hand, shot his assailant dead.Next, Porteous saved the life of a sergeant by disarming his attacker and dispatching the German with his own bayonet. In the meantime, the larger detachment had been held up, its two officers killed, and the troop sergeant seriously wounded.Without hesitating, and in the face of withering fire, Porteous dashed across open ground to take charge of this section. He rallied them, and then led a bayonet charge which carried the battery. Porteous was the first to reach the guns, and as he did so was severely wounded for a second time, being shot through the thigh.He fell, but carried on to the final objective, only losing consciousness from loss of blood once he had organised the successful demolition of the battery. An elderly Frenchwoman who had witnessed part of the action presented each of the surviving Commandos with a newly laid egg, a much-appreciated gift, eggs being scarce in England at that time.If the battery at Varengeville had not been destroyed, casualties among shipping and the main attacking force would have been even greater than they were. The battery was stubbornly defended by 250 Germans, behind concrete, wire, landmines, mortars and concealed machine gun posts. One hundred and fifty Germans were killed.Luck played its part. As the Commandos secured their objective, a squadron of Messerschmitt's swept in low overhead - but took the Commandos for Germans. The British waved cheerfully at them and were relieved to receive a wave back from the squadron leader. Porteous received news of his award from his mother while in hospital.The citation for Porteous's VC stated: "Captain Porteous's most gallant conduct, his brilliant leadership and tenacious devotion to duty . . . was an inspiration to the whole detachment." He was invested with his Victoria Cross by King George VI on October 28, 1942. £400-500 (Plus 23.4% Buyer’s Premium inc. VAT)

* VICE ADMIRAL SIR RODERICK MACDONALD KBE (SCOTTISH 1921 - 2001),SOUTH CHINA SEA oil on canvas,40cm x 51cmFramedNote: Malcolm Innes Gallery label verso.Note: Roderick Douglas Macdonald, always known as Roddy, was born in Java on February 25 1921. He went to Fettes, where in 1938 he captained the Scottish Schoolboys' rugby team. He joined the training ship Frobisher as a Special Entry Cadet in 1939. He retired from the Navy in 1979 as Chief of Staff to the Nato Commander, Allied Naval Forces Southern Europe.He was appointed KBE in 1978. Roddy Macdonald loved his painting almost as much as he loved the Navy. He took his brushes and paint with him in all his appointments. "I like to paint rapidly," he said. "It's much the same as naval action; lots of thinking and planning and then quick execution." His talent was soon widely recognised. His work now hangs in the Fleet Air Arm, Royal Signals and Submarine Museums. He had exhibitions in Naples and Edinburgh and in 2000 had a retrospective in London at which more than 100 drawings and paintings were shown. He loved Scotland and everything Scottish. On his retirement, he assimilated himself effortlessly into the community of the Isle of Skye. He illustrated a book of Gaelic poems by the local Catholic priest, Father Calum McNeill, became chieftain of the Isle of Skye Highland Games and was a trustee of the Clan Donald Lands Trust. Roddy Macdonald was a large man, with a personality and sense of humour to match. The cottage at Braes (Isle of Skye), which overlooks the sea, is where he spent many happy years during retirement. It was gifted by his estate to "Wasps" and now has three studios used by artists including the one the Admiral used himself.
