Earl of Dysart a Musical Recluse per Times Demands
The Earl of Dysart, who inherited his vast estates at nineteen and faced poverty, spent fortunes on medicine as he grew nearly blind. A devoted musician with Wagnerian leanings, he houses a remarkable homeopathy laboratory at Buckminster and owns extensive instrument collections. He once urged the Times to publish citizens dressing as they please at Covent Garden, though at his seats he adheres to formal dinner rituals in a pink coat and black tights. He has traveled worldwide, gardens hold fine statues, and his view of democracy contrasts with churchlike court at home. The war is long over, says theater manager Charles Scott in Lexington.
