Not illustrated. 1904 Excerpt: ...that of his father. In the other group, the Marks ot Cadency are permanent, and consequently they become integral elements ol the heraldic composition in which they appear: thus, the mark of Cadency which distinguishes any particular branch of a family, is borne alike by all the members of that branch, and in that branch it is transmitted from generation to generation. More than one Mark of Cadency may be introduced into the same Coat of Arms; and, for the purpose of some form of secondary distinction, it is good Heraldry to mark Marks of Cadency--to charge one variety of mark, that is, upon another.

Labels are of various tinctures. Edward I., Edward II., and Edward III., each one during the lifetime of his father, bore the Shield of England, No. 187, differenced with an azure label, sometimes of three points, as in No. 336, and sometimes having five points. Edward the Black Prince marked the Royal Shield of Edward III. with a label argent, as in No. 337; and a silver label has since been the Mark of Cadency of every succeeding Prince Of Wales. The Label has been used in this manner by personages of all ranks who have borne arms, from the time of Henry II...
