's fourth son was RICHARD LE SCROPE (c. 1350-1405), archbishop of York , who took part with the Percies in opposition to Henry IV., and was beheaded for treason in June 1405. HENRY LE SCROPE, 3rd Baron Scrope of Masham (c. 13761415), was a favourite of Henry V., by whom he was made treasurer in 1410 and employed on diplomatic missions abroad. But in 1415 he was concerned in a conspiracy to de-throne Henry and was executed at Southampton, when his title was forfeited. It was, however, restored to his brother John in 1455; and it fell into abeyance on the death, in 1517, of Geoffrey, filth Baron Scrope of Masham, without male heirs.
