Her Grace then styled Countess of Norfolk claimed the office of Marshal at the Coronation of that Monarch and prayed that she might execute the same by her deputy ; but her claim was not allowed owing to the want of time to investigate its merits and the prior appointment for the occasion of Henry Lord Percy.
