GEORGE SHOLTO GORDON DOUGLAS-PENNANT PENRHYN, 2nd Baron (1836-1907), was the son of Colonel Edward Gordon Douglas (1800-1886), brother of the 19th earl of Morton, who, through his wife, Juliana, elder daughter and coheir of George Hay Dawkins-Pennant, of Penrhyn Castle, Carnarvon, had large estates in Wales and elsewhere, and was created BaronPenrhyn in 1866.
benevolent landlord, a kind and considerate employer, Lord Penrhyn came of a proud race, and was himself of an imperious disposition.
The new men and new methods were, however, not to the taste of the trade unionist leaders of the quarrymen, and in 1897, when the "new unionism" was rampant in labour questions throughout England, a strike was deliberately fomented.
