Was a devoted Roman Catholic, was appointed Warden of the East and
Middle Marches by Mary, and General Warden by Queen Elizabeth. He and
his brother Henry were for some years constantly engaged in Scottish
expeditions. His Catholic sympathies, however, rendered him an object
of suspicion to Elizabeth, and the treatment he received compelled him
in 1560 to resign the office of Lord Warden. In 1561 Lord Grey of
Wilton was appointed to that office. He complained that the Earl would
not allow him to occupy Alnwick Castle, and had, in order to prevent
him doing so, removed "most part of the stuff there". In 1562 the Earl
writes that he cannot entertain the Scottish Queen at Alnwick because
the Castle is "utterly unfurnished and not so much as one bed in it",
and he states that he is in such need of money that he has not £40 in
the world. It is probable that he had deliberately dismantled the
Castle to some extent in order that it should not be used as a
residence for the Government’s officials. Having gained this object he
would seem to have refurbished it, for a survey of 1567 shows that it
was provided with everything required for his own residence at that
date. At length the slights put upon him, and his co-religionists
desire to restore the Catholic faith and to place Mary Queen of Scots
on the throne, led him into the disastrous Rising of the North. In 1568
while the Earl was mustering his forces in Yorkshire his retainers at
his order garrisoned Alnwick Castle, but Sir John Forster, Warden of
the Middle Marches, promptly advanced against it, and resistance being
hopeless, the garrison surrendered.
The Earl kept the field till December 1568, while his forces dwindled
away from desertion. At length the approach of the royal army compelled
him to seek refuge in Liddesdale, then regarded as a sanctuary for
outlawed men. He was, however, betrayed to the Earl of Moray, Regent of
Scotland, and remained a prisoner in that country until 1572, when he
was sold for a large sum to Queen Elizabeth and handed over to Hunsdon,
Governor of Berwick. He was taken to Alnwick, where he was placed in
charge of Sir John Forster, who conveyed him to York, guarded by a
large escort throughout the journey, as, owing to his great popularity
in the North, an attempt at rescue was feared. He was beheaded at York
on August 22nd, 1572, declaring the realm to be in schism and his own
adherence to the Church of Rome, which has numbered him among her
martyrs and has beatified him.
He carried out considerable restorations at the Castle, which was
evidently in a bad state of repair at this da
