More to the point why didn't his niece or Stillington, knowing how little he liked his cousin's eventual choice of wife tell him about it? With Warwick still the Big Cheese what had either to fear or lose?trish wilsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01292123010612021866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21031350.post-49067012229943781802010-01-19T06:14:30.519-05:002010-01-19T06:14:30.519-05:00Eleanor certainly had a very eventful life!
