Archibald Horatio Horniman, Edward "Eddie" Horniman and others in “Refined Aggression”

[on death bed to Eddie] Of course, by that time, he’s three sheets to the wind, stark-bollock naked. He’d just forgotten he was in the Upper Chamber. The first Duke of Halstead was tough was tough as iron. Built this place himself. Every stone of it. Single-handed...

Dad...

[Eddie holds his hand] Pinched the stone from the old monastery.

It's me, Edward.

Why'd you turn back on us, my boy? DO you think it's brave to go swanning off playing tough-tough with your friends? It's not. The estate is not to be carved upǃ Is that clear?

Don't worry about that. Just get some rest.

And look after your brotherǃ He won't survive without youǃ You understand?

I understand, Dad.

The third duke, mean old bastard, killed 15 Frenchman before lunch. He was getting himself ready to fight a duel. He shot his own foot offǃ Haǃ Silly cuntǃ [coughs and chokes]
