	Lord High Steward - LoveToKnow 1911
		The Lord High Steward of England, who must not be confused with the Lord Steward, ranks as the first of the great officers of state.
		The household of the Norman and Angevin kings of England included certain persons of secondary rank, styled dapifers, seneschals or stewards (the prototypes of the lord steward), who were entrusted with domestic and state duties; the former duties were those of purveyors and sewers to the king, the latter were undefined.
		In Danby's case a commission under the great seal issued in the common form adopted for the court of the steward; this was recalled, and the rule agreed to by a joint committee of both houses that a steward for trials of peers upon impeachments was unnecessary.

		But the duties which in theory belong to the lord steward, treasurer and comptroller of the household are in practice performed by the master of the household, who is a permanent officer and resides in the palace.
		In the lord steward's department are the officials of the Board of Green Cloth, the coroner ("coroner of the verge"), and paymaster of the household, and the officers of the almonry (see Almoner).
		In certain cases (messages from the sovereign under the sign-manual) "the lords with white staves" are the proper persons to bear communications between the sovereign and the houses of parliament.

	Steward origins (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		As discussed earlier Robert was obsessed with the idea that the Steward family descended from the Scottish royal family of Stewart and he incorporated a copy of the family history with the continuation of the Historia Eliensis, the history of the see, abbey, and priory of Ely, which he undertook as prior and dean.
		Steward, who obligingly amended his religious opinions on the accession of Queen Mary, ensured that his family did well out of the Dissolution: they had a grant of former monastic lands and Robert's elder brother became hereditary steward of the cathedral's remaining properties.
		Steward, Sir Simeon (1579/80?-1629?), poet, was the surviving son of Mark Steward (c.1525—1604) of Stuntney, Cambridgeshire, and his wife, Anne, daughter of the royal physician Robert Huicke.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Attainder
		After the impeachment of Lord Stanley in 1459, for not sending his troops to the battle of Bloreheath, there was not another impeachment until that of Sir Giles Mompesson and Sir Francis Mitchell in 1621.
		In the reign of Henry VIII Bills of attainder were often used instead of impeachments, as in the cases of Wolsey, Thomas Cromwell, Queen Katherine Howard, the Duke of Norfolk, and the Earl of Surrey.
		Even Froude admits that they were "gallant men, whose high forms, in the sunset of the old faith, stand transfigured on the horizon, tinged with the light of its dying glory".
