The Tenantry Assembling at the Lodge, (funeral of Sir Robert Peel), 1850. 'At the lodge-gate 50 of the principal tenantry of the estate, bearing crape scarves and hat-bands, and well mounted, joined and headed the procession, moving two and two. After seeing the cortege start from Drayton, a considerable portion of the crowd made for the church by the short cut, and augmented the numbers who filled the quiet churchyard, clambering upon wall and tombstone, and forming a double line from the wicket-gate to the church porch'. From "Illustrated London News", 1850.
