At the end of the century, his associated £20,000 alleged lunacy principally for a left-handed marriage and being profligate caused the property to be sold in 1900 to Joseph Gurney Barclay for his third son, Army officer Henry Barclay, aide-de-camp to Edward VII of the United Kingdom (1906–10) and George V (1910-25).
