Macky. Was warm against King William's reign, and doth not make any great figure in this; but, his son, Mr. Brydges[3] does, being a member of the House of Commons, one of the counsellors to the prince, and a very worthy gentleman.—Swift. But a great compiler with every court.
[Footnote 3: Afterwards Duke of Chandos.]
FRANCIS, LORD GUILFORD.
Macky. Is son to the lord-keeper North, hath been abroad, does not want sense nor application to business, and his genius leads him that way.—Swift. A mighty silly fellow.
EDWARD, LORD GRIFFIN.
Macky. Having-followed King James's fortunes, is now in France. He was always a great sportsman, and brave; a good companion, turned of 60 years old.—Swift. His son was a plain drunken fellow.
HUGH, LORD CHOLMONDELEY [AFTERWARDS EARL OF CHOLMONDELEY].
Macky. This lord is a great lover of country sports; is handsome in his person, and turned of 40 years old.—Swift. Good for nothing, as far as ever I knew.
CHARLES, LORD BUTLER OF WESTON.
Macky. Earl of Arran in Ireland, and brother to the Duke of Ormonde;... of very good sense, though seldom shows it.—Swift. This is right; but he is the most negligent of his own affairs.
