Of course, the battle of the fees is an old story. There has been struggle many times over the Garter fees. When Lord Palmer ton got his K.G. he refused in his downright way to pay anything: and when he way solemnly threatened that his banner would not be hung in St. George's Chapel, he replied that he never went to St. George's or any other chapel, and thus in any event he would never see it. Lord Roberts also refuged to pay the Garter fees, and his banner was witheld from the chapel for twelve months.
