Autograph – Mary Eleanor Bowes, Countess of Strathmore – ‘The Unhappy Countess’ autograph letter signed dated March 26th 1785 to her attorney Charles Wren referring to the unbelievable ordeal she suffered at the hands of her husband. This remarkable and extremely rare letter refers to a scandal of the highest magnitude involving members of the Bowes family – who were ancestors of the family to which the Queen Mother belonged. Eleanor, Countess of Strathmore had married as her third husband (the other two having died), a young adventurer named Andrew Stoney – one of the more remarkable fraudsters of all time. Stoney contrived with the Editor of the Morning Post to publish defamatory articles about the Countess written by himself. With mock outrage at the ‘libels’, Stoney then challenged the Editor to a ‘duel’ (which was a total sham), but his ‘gallantry’ in the affair made the Countess fall head over heels in love with him and she married him four days later. Stoney then proceeded to virtually bankrupt the Countess with his riotous living and began to treat the Countess as he had treated his former wife. He used to lock her up in a closet and feed her only an egg and a biscuit a day. The following year, 1785, the Countess fled from his custody, and began divorce proceedings, the divorce was finalised in 1789 The case showed that shortly after her marriage she had been deprived of her liberty in every respect. While the divorce suit was pending, Stoney carried her off and tried to persuade her to be reconciled to him. Being pursued from London, Bowes hastily made his escape carrying her with him. He was overtaken at Darlington, and the Countess was freed. Proceedings were immediately instituted against him and he was bound over to keep the peace in sureties of himself for 10,000 pounds and two sureties of 5,000 pounds each. His trial took place on Wednesday, 10th May 1787; the trial was for a conspiracy against Lady Strathmore to assault and imprison her. Various evidence of ill-usage were given, and the result was that he had to pay a fine of 300 pounds, to be imprisoned for three years and to keep the peace for fourteen years. At the same time a trial against him took place, brought on by Lady Strathmore, to set aside the deed by transferred rents and other property to Bowes. This was successful, and he was deprived of all the property, and the whole of the rents which he had received. He was cast into prison, where he died on the 16th June 1810
