 Phipps' Defence of Francis V, Duke of Modena
The Duke was only directing the application to those persons of a law which existed before the offences were committed, and was ordering that a measure should be applied to them individually, to which all persons in their case were liable by the law as it had already stood for twenty years.
Gladstone seems to conceive that it was particularly harsh that the Duke should complain of the carelessness of his judges in giving a couple of malefactors the benefit of a law which was never intended to apply to their case.
The convictions of the Duke upon these points were shared by the Modenese public, who were incessantly complaining of the impunity of crime, of the inertness, the slowness, and the inefficiency of the judges, and of the evil influence of their laxity upon public morality.

From the start they were never able to get along due to the intellectual whims of the infante who boasted revolutionary and voltairian ideas at the rigid court of Modena.
He shared the same teachers, education, ups and downs and exile with his brother but never showed much interest for matters concerning the fatherland so that many contest his inclusion in the list of Carlist Kings of Spain.
