SIR ROGER NEWDIGATE was born May 20, 1719. He was the seventh son and youngest child of Sir Richard Newdigate, third baronet, by his second wife, Elizabeth, daughter of Sir Roger Twisden, Bart. Sir Richard died in 1727, and was succeeded by his eldest surviving son, Sir Edward, a boy of twelve, who died under age in 1734. At his death the only surviving and youngest brother, Roger, then a King's Scholar at Westminster School, succeeded as fifth baronet, but leaving no issue the baronetcy became extinct in 1806. Sir Soger's three sisters, who all predeceased him, married respectively the Honourable John Chichester, Mr. Palmer, and Mr. Ludford.

' The incomparable baronet of Arbury,' as his biographer styles him, ' was a lover of virtu and an excellent classic from his early days, and made two lengthy tours on the Continent, where he accumulated many objects of art, which now adorn his Warwickshire home. . . . The best classics, and Homer in particular, seemed as familiar to him when he was on the other side of fourscore as if he was just come from Oxford or Westminster. . . .

Conclusion.........The story of the Newdigates is represented in George Eliot's Cheverels of Cheveral Manor. Lady Cheverel is intended to be an accurate reproduction of Hester Lady Newdigate, we may justly think it is an unappreciative portrait and even less than kind. Hester's frank outpourings in her letters reveal a warmer hearted and more affectionate disposition than we should have divined from our authoress's description of the stately lady with the ' expression of hauteur' uncontradicted by 'the cold grey eye.' Probably Hester's many illnesses and a natural dignity of manner and deportment may have prevented her character being rightly read and duly appreciated by her subordinates.
