Your humble servant
Sir: Nigel Nicolson rightly refers to Knole (A challenge to the continent', 19 Novem- ber), then adds that Kent's 'social aspira- tions were at baronet level, not ducal'. Must a Davies remind a Sackville of Knole's great proprietors, the Dukes of Dorset? They were after all his ancestors, not mine, I assure you.
