     Cockayne quotes from the Annual Register, "Of the miseries which followed this marriage [to Catherine Tylney-Long], and of the subsequent scandals of the deceased's career, it is better to say nothing. The vast property he had acquired by marriage and all that came from his own family, was squandered; and, after many years of poverty and profligacy, he subsisted on a weekly pension from his relatives, the late and present Dukes of Wellington", written in 1857. Cockayne then adds "among other estates thus sold was Wanstead House, Essx, the erection of which had cost more than £360,000, but (in 1823) fetched only £10,000, the materials being cleared by Lady Day in 1825; also Tylney Park, near Rotherfield, Hampshire."⁵ His obituary in the Morning Chronicle read "Redeemed by no single virtue, adorned by no single grace, his life has gone out without even a flicker of repentance; his 'retirement' was that of one who was deservedly avoided by all men."⁵
