About the Book

Excerpt from Middlesex: Biographical and Pictorial As Lord Lieutenant of Middlesex the Duke of Bedford holds a post which was filled by one of his ancestors, Lord Edward Russell, in 1700. The office is one which is hoary with age and venerable in its antiquity. The appointment is made by the Sovereign by Patent under the Great Seal. It is interesting to note that the Office had its origin in the occasional Commissions of Array issued by the Crown in times of danger, requiring experienced persons to muster the inhabitants Of the Counties to which the Commissions were sent and organise them on military lines. The historical student will remember that the Long Parliament denied the right of the Crown to issue such Commissions, and it was this very question which proved the immediate cause of the breach between Charles I. And his subjects. The legality Of the Commissions was vindicated by a declaratory Act passed at the time of the Restoration. The Duke of Bedford by virtue of his position as Lord Lieutenant of Middlesex, an Office which he has held Since 1898, is the permanent local representative of the Crown and is at the head of the Magistracy and Auxiliary Forces. He is the official channel Of communication between the Government and the Magistracy, and in an emergency would be responsible for the preservation of public tranquillity in the County.
