The lion is one of the most common and noble charges in heraldry, symbolizing deathless courage and valour. This specific lion is distinguished by \"crosses moline\" on its body and on the shield (escutcheon) it rests its paw upon. The cross moline, shaped like a mill-rind, is often associated with the eighth son in a lineage (cadency), but broadly symbolizes mutual converse and the reciprocal relationship between the bearer and their faith or duties. The act of the lion resting its paw on the escutcheon signifies defense, protection, and guardianship of the family honour or specific branch represented by the cross moline.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e(\"Plate 4 and Crest 10\" Fairbairn, J.
