[MR] No Marquis??

[E L Wimett]

Hi, Cathal!!!

(For those who do not know, Cathal was Seneschal of Meridies early in its
history as a kingdom.  And bought the game of Corpora at the First Meridian
Coronation which was only appropriate.)

And I never said that it was bestowed, Cathal, simply trying to make a
distinction to note that it was NOT used as a count or earl equivalent.  In
point of fact, I had originally typed "reignes twice as prince" and
apparently accidentally deleted the adverb when trying to change the "s" to
a "d".  Oh well. . .

Close but no cigar.  It was listed in Principality Law; however it was never
bestowed.  It was for a second reign as a Territorial Prince and that did
not occur.

It was also initially considered as the title for a Companion to the Order
of the Pelican.

Cathal.
