Excerpt: ... III. MARRIAGE WITH MARY SCURLOCK. I 707-I 708. ^T. 35-36. In the summer of 1707 Steele was courting Miss, or Mrs. Scurlock--to use the term given in those days to all grown-up ladies1--who was, as we have seen, a friend of his former wife. Miss Mary Scurlock was sole heiress to Jonathan Scurlock, of Carmarthenshire, who died in 1682. Jonathan Scurlock was descended from an ancient and honourable Irish family, and after studying at Trinity College, Cambridge, turned his attention to the law, and became a justice of the peace, an alderman, and, in 1678, sheriff for the borough of Carmarthen. Miss Scurlock''s mother, Mrs. Elisabeth Scurlock, was still living at Carmarthen. The estate was worth PS400 a year, but as there was a demand of PS1400 upon it,2 the net amount derived from it would be be about PS330 a year. The following inscription to Jonathan Scurlock is on a tablet high on the chancel wall in St. Peter''s Church, Carmarthen :3-- P.S.
