He d. at Drmnsheugb, 2S Aug. 1S10, aged 73, and was bur. at Duuibirsel. ( :l ) "Mr. Charles Steuart, second son to the F.arle of Murray." ( b ) He obtained under the act (1747) for abolishing heritable jurisdiction £3,000 for the Sheriffship of Moray or Elgin, and £1,200 for the Stewartry of Mciiteith ; in all £4.200 in full of his claim of £1 1,000. ( K ) He was one of the few English at Turin in 1759 who " were remarkable for their diligent attention to their studies," having " masters for dancing, music, Italian, French, and for the Civil law." [Wood's " Dow/las.] C) His vote was objected to at the Gen. Election of Rep. Peers [S.J in 1790 on the ground that the dignity was one to the heir general and as such would be in the descendants of the da. of James Stuart, styled Lord Doune, eldest son of Alexander, 5th Earl of Moray. The House of Lords, however, on 6 June 1793. came to the resolution " that the votes given by the Earl of Moray at the said election were good." This, says the article in " the Genealogist," (vol. iii, N.S., pp. 1-24) above alluded to "is absolutely all we learn on the subject from the proper official source — the House of Lords journals." See, however, p. 302, note " c," as to how Lord Lough- borough's notes thereon have been wrongfully construed to indicate the declaration of their Lordships of a new creation in 15S1 or 1584, with, consequently, no earlier precedency than that date. In " Riddell " (p. 934) the finality of the resolution of 1793 is questioned as having been made in the absence of (the opposing party) the heir general.
