Countersigner The individual who countersigned the Warrant. David Maxwell-Fyfe (Secretary of State for the Home Department) Seal Affixed Some Warrants bear a seal. Second Seal (Black) Ornamentation Describe any ornamentation. Document is typewritten. Capitalized incipits. Bound in black ribbon. Special Features This is a place to enter any distinguishing features. The wording of this instrument is essentially the same as the Royal Warrant issued to new Lord Chancellors (cf. the <a href="https://cbaionline.org/corpus/items/show/38" title="Royal Warrant issued to Shabana Mahmood">Royal Warrant issued to Shabana Mahmood</a>). The only difference is that the first paragraph refers to "things directed to you Our Chancellor of Great Britain before the demise of Our Royal Father King George the Sixth and since Our succession to the Throne instead of "things directed to Our late Lord Chancellor of Great Britain". This document also a reference to "Injunctions, Decrees, and Dismissions" which also appears in the Royal Warrant issued to new Lord Chancellors. However, these documents do not require the Monarch's personal authorization to pass the Great Seal so it's not clear why the new Monarch has to re-authorize their sealing. It could be an example of formalism trumping logic. Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Transcript A transcript of the document. HOUSE OF LORDS, S.W.1. 10th February, 1950. Dear Helsby The Office of Lord Great Chamberlain, the Great Officer of State who has charge of the Palace of Westminster, is hereditary, being descendible in “tail general”. This means (among other things) that when a holder dies leaving no son and more than one daughter, the right to the office is vested in two or more persons as co-heirs. The duties then have to be performed by deputy. The duties have now been performed by deputy for very many years. The procedure is for the co-heirs to consent by unanimous consent a person to act as their Deputy to execute the duties of the office, and for that Deputy Nominate to petition The King for His Majesty’s approval of his nomination. The present Deputy is Lord Ancaster, and he wishes to relinquish this office owing to age and infirmity. The present co-heirs are the Marquess of Cholmondeley, the Earl of Ancaster and the issue of the late Marquess of Lincolnshire, and they have agreed to nominate Lord Willoughby de Eresby (Lord Ancaster’s son) as their Deputy, and for that purpose have completed Deeds of Nomination. In accordance with usual practice Lord Willoughby de Eresby has sent his Petition and the supporting Deeds of Nomination to this Office. They are in order, and accordingly I forward them herewith. The next step is for the Prime Minister, if he thinks fit, to put forward Lord Willoughby de Eresby’s name to The King for His Majesty’s approval and, when His Majesty has signified His pleasure, for you to instruct the Home Office to prepare a Warrant signifying the King’s approval of the selection of Lord Willoughby de Eresby for the office of Deputy Lord Great Chamberlain. When the Home Office receive your instructions, they will need the enclosed documents for the preparation of the Warrant. I am sending a copy of this letter to Strutt at the Home Office. (Sgd.)

My dear Lascelles, As you know, the duties of the office of Lord Great Chamberlain are at the moment performed by deputy and it is understood that Lord Ancaster, the present deputy, wishes to relinquish his office owing to age and infirmity.
