The Trial Of Queen Caroline 1820 By Sir George Hayter
''The'' () is a grammatical article in English, denoting persons or things already mentioned, under discussion, implied or otherwise presumed familiar to listeners, readers, or speakers. It is the definite article in English. ''The'' is the most frequently used word in the English language; studies and analyses of texts have found it to account for seven percent of all printed English-language words. It is derived from gendered articles in Old English which combined in Middle English and now has a single form used with pronouns of any gender. The word can be used with both singular and plural nouns, and with a noun that starts with any letter. This is different from many other languages, which have different forms of the definite article for different genders or numbers. Pronunciation In most dialects, "the" is pronounced as (with the voiced dental fricative followed by a schwa) when followed by a consonant sound, and as (homophone of pronoun ''thee'') when followed by ...

Robert Stubber
The name Robert is an ancient Germanic given name, from Proto-Germanic "fame" and "bright" (''Hrōþiberhtaz''). Compare Old Dutch ''Robrecht'' and Old High German ''Hrodebert'' (a compound of '' Hruod'' ( non, Hróðr) "fame, glory, honour, praise, renown" and ''berht'' "bright, light, shining"). It is the second most frequently used given name of ancient Germanic origin. It is also in use as a surname. Another commonly used form of the name is Rupert. After becoming widely used in Continental Europe it entered England in its Old French form ''Robert'', where an Old English cognate form (''Hrēodbēorht'', ''Hrodberht'', ''Hrēodbēorð'', ''Hrœdbœrð'', ''Hrœdberð'', ''Hrōðberχtŕ'') had existed before the Norman Conquest. The feminine version is Roberta. The Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish form is Roberto.

Dudley Hussey
Dudley Hussey (-17 November 1785) was an Irish politician and judge. He sat in the Irish House of Commons for Taghmon and served briefly as Recorder of Dublin. His promising career was cut short by his early death, which was probably due to gaol fever. He was born in Dublin, the eldest son of Miles Hussey of Abbey Street (died 1771), a teacher of mathematics. He entered the Middle Temple and was called to the Bar in 1766. He became MP for Taghmon in 1783. Taghmon was a rotten borough and he is said to have paid a considerable sum to secure his election. In 1784 he was elected Recorder of Dublin, beating three other candidates for the office (the Recorder was not a Crown appointment but was elected by Dublin Corporation). However, he died in November of the following year, reportedly from gaol fever caught while inspecting a prison. He married in 1775 Susanna Darragh, only daughter of John Darragh, a wealthy merchant who sold glass and china at Lower Ormond Quay, Dublin: he was ...

William Ormsby
William Matthew Ormsby (1814 – May 12, 1860) was an early settler of Nevada who was instrumental in the establishment of Carson City and the Nevada Territory. Major Ormsby was killed leading a Militia force against Paiute Indians in what was called the Pyramid Lake War. Early life William Ormsby was born in Greenville, Pennsylvania in 1814. His title of "Major" may reflect service in the state militia. With thousands of other men, Ormsby moved to California in 1849 during the California Gold Rush.

John FitzGibbon, 1st Earl Of Clare
John FitzGibbon, 1st Earl of Clare PC (Ire) (1748 – 28 January 1802) was Attorney-General for Ireland from 1783 to 1789 and Lord Chancellor of Ireland from 1789 to 1802.
