Cornwallis returned to England on leave, only to find his wife Jemima gravely ill. This distracted him from military affairs for several weeks, but when she died early in 1779 he found that life held little else for him.

If some of the earls, notably Arundel and Huntingdon, were directly involved in only one of the early French campaigns (in their case, the battle of Sluys), it cannot be doubted that they supported the king's war in a variety of other ways.

 LESMAHAGOW - The Annals of Lesmahagow - With information on history and events dating from as early as 1179AD
In 1315, these alienations were found by Robert, Bishop of Glasgow, to be null and void, the said English Prior being an usurper and dilapidator of the revenues of the Abbey of Kelso.
John, Bishop of Glasgow, by request of Robert I., and with consent of his chapter, conveyed to the Abbey of Kelso, the church and teinds of Eglismalescok, or Carluke, the management of which was assigned to Lesmahagow by that monastery.
Chalmers ("Caledonia"), with critical acumen, remarks that John Eltham died at Perth on the 5th of October 1336, while his brother Edward returned to England the end of September fo the same year; so that if he died of a wound from his brother's hamd he must have survived for sometime after it was inflicted.
