Euan began flirting with other women, maybe a little more than flirting. The women were young – and single, which made them dangerous. One of these was Dickie (Morvyth) Ward, the Earl of Dudley’s daughter. Dickie was very fond of Euan, she took him to Witley Court, her father’s house in the country.
