(>') This is in accordance with the practise generally prevailing in the uaa of Courtesy tides ; which practise, tho' somewhat uncertain, appears to be as inder. (1) The style of the heir ap. (tho' his rank is always that of the next lowest grade in the Peerage to that enjoyed by the actual Peer) is, in no ease, higher than that uf the secondary Peerage vested in such Peer ; e.g. the style of the h. ap. of the Duke of Grafton, is (tho' ranking as a Marquess) Sari of Euston ; that of the h. ap. of the Marquess of Bath, is (tho' ranking as an Earl) Viscount Weymouth ; that of the h. ap. of the Earl of Derby, is (tho' ranking as a Viscount) Lord Stanley ; there being no Marquessate vested in that Duke ; no Earldom in that Marquess, and no Viscountcy in that Earl. A still stronger instance in point is that of the Dukedom of Somerset, of which the h. ap. (there being no secondary title of higher grade than a Jluromj vested in that Dukedom) is, (tho' ranking as Marquess) styled (merely) 'Lord Seymour." (2) When the designation of the secondary Peerage vested in the actual Peer is the same as that of his principal title, the rani of the secondary title is, in many cases, prefixed to the family surname, thus forming the style of the h. ap. ; e.g. the Earl of Belmore, being a Viscount (Viscount Belmore) of the same designation as his Earldom, his h. ap. is styled " Viscount," not (indeed) "Viscount Belmore" (which would lead to confusion) but " Viscount Corry." (3) Where no secondary Peerage is vested in any Earl, Marquess or Duke, the h. ap. is styled "Lord" before the family surname e.g. in the case of the Earls of Huntingdon, of Devon and of Lindsey (who are all so situated) the h. ap. of each is respectively styled " Lord Hastings," " Lord Courtonay " and " Lord Bertie." (4) When, in addition to a secondary Peerage of a lever grade, but of the same denomination as the Principal title, there exists another l'eenige of a different denomination, tho' of a still lower grade, this last is generally (as being an available Peerage title) made use of as the Courtesy title ; e.g. in the case of the Duke of Manchester (Earl of Manchester and Viscount Mandevillo) the h. ap. styled (not " Earl of Manchester " or even Earl Montagu, but) Viscount Mandeville,
