		Granville became Lord Landsdowne, Baron Biddeford, by a promotion justly remarked to be not invidious, because he was the heir of a family in which two peerages, that of the earl of Bathe and lord Granville of Potheridge, had lately become extinct.
		Granville was a man illustrious by his birth, and therefore attracted notice; since he is by Pope styled the polite, he must be supposed elegant in his manners, and generally loved; he was in times of contest and turbulence steady to his party, and obtained that esteem which is always conferred upon firmness and consistency.
