<i>The Trumpet-Major</i> novel by Thomas Hardy

Loveday, 1458 Arbitration event during the Wars of the Roses

The Loveday of 1458 took place at St Paul's Cathedral on the 25th of March that year. It was the culmination of weeks of negotiations initiated by King Henry VI in an attempt to resolve the differences within his nobility. English politics had become increasingly factional during Henry's reign, and this had been exacerbated a few years previously when he had suddenly become mentally incapacitated. This had effectively left the government leaderless, and eventually the King's cousin—and at the time, heir to the throne—was appointed Protector during the course of the King's illness. Alongside York were his allies from the politically and militarily important Neville family. When the King returned to health a year later, the protectorship ended but the partisanship within government did not; the Duke of York felt increasingly excluded from government, and, in May 1455—possibly fearing an ambush—York led an army against the King at the First Battle of St Albans. There, in what has been assessed at more of a series of assassinations than a battle, the personal enemies of York and the Nevilles—the Duke of Somerset, the Earl of Northumberland, and Lord Clifford—perished.
