The Audacious Intruder



Or the Agony and the Ecstasy, for Lord Gage. He must be blissfully happy with the new Lady Gage who is 38 years younger than the 75 year-old Gage himself; however Lord Gage, along with his household and guests (including a judge), suffered a daring burglary to the tune of more than one million pounds at his stately home in East Sussex, Firle Place.

The Right Honourable (Henry) Nicolas Viscount Gage is the 8th viscount; and the viscountcy was created in 1720.

Sounds like his lordship is rather an audacious 'intruder' himself, given the age of his wife. ;-)
