Earl of Erne, 1876. Engraving from a photograph by Barraud and Jerrard. 'The Right Hon. John Crichton, third Earl of Erne, Viscount Erne and Baron Erne in the Peerage of Ireland, K.P., has just been added to the Peerage of the United Kingdom by the dignity and title of Baron Fermanagh; and he will he an example of a Parliamentary anomaly, inasmuch as he will still sit in the House of Lords as a representative peer for Ireland, as he has hitherto done, it being impossible to displace from the House a representative peer for Ireland, who can only depart from that assembly by death...The uninitiated, perhaps, do not perceive the immediate reason for the advancement of the present peer; but it may be guessed to be a crafty device to give a glaring example of the anomalous state of the representative Peerage of Ireland'. From "Illustrated London News", 1876.
