.*Modern transcriptions, from the digitised type-written copy, have this name as Edward Bryn Tallyho Howard, though contemporary newspaper articles record Edward Byng Tally-ho Forward.
The use of Glencora is most likely inspired by the character Lady Glencora Palliser in Anthony Trollope's novel Can You Forgive Her? which was published as a series in 1864 and 1865.
