Stutevill Latton & Dalham link

S. I. remarks: " In your January Number, Hkraldicvs Oxoniensis expresses a wish to know the mottos of several families. The family of Latton, North Wilts, derive themselves from the noble race of Stuteville, who were barons of Lyddesdale Castle, in Cumberland, and a branch of which settled at Dalham, in Suffolk, in the time of King John, where they remained till in 1701 the male line became extinct (see Gent.'s Mag. January, 1833). Thomas Stuteville was High Sheriff of Suffolk, 44 Eliz. and Sir Martin filled the same office, 10 James I. The seal of William Latton affixed to a deed, dated 19th April, 2 Eliz. bears the Stuteville arms, which the family retained ; viz. Per pale ermine and ermines, a saltier engrailed counterchanged. The crest and motto are, however, different j viz. a cross bow or. Motto, Mors potior macula.—William Clayton, Baron Sundon of Ardagh, 1735. Probitatem quam divitias, on an original portrait by Kneller.—Clayton, Sir W. of Morden. Virtus in actione consistit.— Leake.Gloriam Deo in excelsts.— Whichcote, Sir C. Juste et droit.— Houghton, Sir H. Malgre le tort.— Folkes, Sir M. To this family I find three mottos indiscriminately appropriated. 1. Servare modum. 2. Principiis obsta.

3. Che sara sara.—Wheler. Facie tenens —Sanderson. Opera mundi.—Dudley. Galea spes salutis.
