Osbert Molyneux, 6th Earl of Sefton
Resigning from the regular army, he was appointed a supernumerary captain in the Lancashire Hussars Imperial Yeomanry on 4 June 1902.[3] When the Liberals came to power under Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman in December 1905, Sefton was appointed Master of the Horse[4] and sworn of the Privy Council in January 1906.The wife of King George V's son Prince Henry, Duke of Gloucester wrote of her aunt Helena: "Long before the First War, she shocked her relations by wearing trousers and going off big-game shooting with a boyfriend--needless to say, it was the trousers that caused the worst scandal.I was very impressed when she once took me down to the canteen in the docks where she often helped cook breakfast for the merchant seamen who had come in the night before or at break of dawn."[7] Lord Sefton died in June 1930, aged 59, and was succeeded in the earldom by his eldest and only surviving son, Hugh.
