The article reads, "Lord Derby was a man of deep religious feeling and of great nobility of character". Says who? This either needs to be backed up by a relevant citation, or removed. Whether someone is noble or not is a matter of opinion, so it should either be changed to read along the lines of "(relevant source) describes him as having great nobility of character" or removed.

Was he really tried by court martial? If so, why? Biographies of Humphrey Mackworth (Parliamentarian), then deputy chief justice of the Chester circuit, make him the presiding judge, which suggests a normal judicial process. Sjwells53 (talk) 16:39, 31 May 2015 (UTC)Reply
I've found out. He was, according to House of Commons Journal, so I obviously don't understand how 17th century courts martial worked. Anyway, the reference may be useful. Sjwells53 (talk) 21:22, 3 June 2015 (UTC)Reply
