Excerpt from Titled Corruption: The Sordid Origin of Some Irish Peerages

Your Grace may be surprised to see the name of Sir John Henniker, who is not an Irishman, in my list for new [irish] peerages, but as his son General Henniker came into Parliament here at his own expense and has been a steady supporter of the Union and assiduous in his attendance, and as it will a little suit my provincial politics in England to do a kindness to Sir John, I trust this promotion will not be disapproved.
