These illustrations are taken from book The Right Hon. Benjamin Disraeli, Earl of Beaconsfield, K.K., And His Times. 1883. Dudley Francis Stuart Ryder, 3rd Earl of Harrowby PC, DL, JP (16 January 1831 – 26 March 1900), known as Viscount Sandon from 1847 to 1882, was a British peer and politician. Harrowby was Member of Parliament (MP) for Lichfield from 1856 to 1859 and for Liverpool from 1868 until he succeeded to the peerage in 1882. He was Vice-President of the Committee on Education from 1874 to 1878 and President of the Board of Trade (with a seat in the cabinet) from 1878 to 1880 in Benjamin Disraeli's second administration and was sworn of the Privy Council in 1874. Between 1885 and 1886 he served as Lord Privy Seal in Lord Salisbury's first government. Apart from his career in national politics he was also Chairman of the Staffordshire county council and a Deputy Lieutenant and Justice of the Peace for that county. Lord Harrowby married Lady Mary, daughter of Brownlow Cecil, 2nd Marquess of Exeter, in 1861. The marriage was childless. Harrowby died in March 1900, aged 69, and was succeeded by his younger brother, Henry. Lady Harrowby died in July 1917.
