"In private life he was good-natured, chearful, social;……" — Philip Dormer Stanhope

"In private life he was good-natured, chearful, social; inelegant in his manners, loose in his morals. He had a coarse, strong wit, which he was too free of for aman in his station, as it is always inconsistent with dignity. He was very able as aminister, but without a certain elevation of mind necessary for great good, or great mischief."
