THE PERCY PLOT THICKENS
The Duke played a considerable part in public affairs, and was one of those largely responsible for the Revolution of 1688 and for the accession of the Hanoverian dynasty in 1714.
The title of Earl of Northumberland had been conferred upon the 7th Duke of Somerset, with remainder to his son-in-law, Sir Hugh Smithson and his heirs, and accordingly on the death of the Duke Sir Hugh became Earl of Northumberland, and through his wife owner of the Northumbrian estates.
His public benefactions, especially in Northumberland, were very numerous, and included among others the provision of up-to-date lifeboats on the coast, and endowment of charitable institutions for sailors and seamen, in whom he took great interest, and the building of schools and churches.
