[Burke's Peerage]r Henry de Percy, "Harry Hotspur", b. 20 May 1364, dvp, slain at Shrewsbury 21 July 1403; m. before 10 Dec 1379 Elizabeth Mortimer. [Magna Charta Sureties]------here. Henry IV and his army met Harry Hotspur before the seige could be established., a major town of Northumberland/Scotland. The night before the Battle of Shrewsbury, Harry and his army camped in a little hamlet outside Shrewsbury. It was not until the next morning that Harry found out that the Hamlet's name was Berwick. Harry died that day in the battle.R (b. May 20, 1364--d. July 21, 1403, near Shrewsbury, Shropshire, Eng.), English rebel who led the most serious of the uprisings against King Henry IV (reigned 1399-1413). His fame rests to a large extent on his inclusion as a major character in William Shakespeare's Henry IV.tion of the diligence with which he patrolled the border between England and Scotland. He was captured and held for ransom by Scottish invaders in 1388-89, and in 1399 he and his father played a crucial part in helping Henry Bolingbroke (afterward King Henry IV) overthrow King Richard II. Henry IV rewarded Hotspur with lands and offices in northern England and Wales, but the Percys would not be content until they dominated the king. Their stunning victory over the Scots at Homildon (Humbledon) Hill in Durham, in September 1402, contrasted with Henry's fruitless attempts to suppress the Welsh rebel Owen Glendower. Nevertheless, Henry refused to allow Hotspur to ransom the Scottish captives, and he delayed in paying the expenses of Hotspur's border warfare. Hence in 1403 Hotspur and Northumberland decided to depose the king. Hotspur raised a rebellion in Cheshire in July, but Henry intercepted him near Shrewsbury before he could join forces with his father. In the ensuing battle Hotspur was killed. [Encyclopædia Britannica CD '97, Encyclopædia Britannica, Inc., © 1996]_1_Son of Henry Percy, 1st earl of Northumberland. Hotspur won fame on the Scottish border, where he took a lead in the defence of the north. In 1388 he killed James, 2nd earl of Douglas, at the battle of Otterburn, and although he was captured his fame increased. He aided his father at the battle of Homildon Hill in 1402, this time capturing Archibald, 4th earl of Douglas. However, the Percys quickly fell out with Henry IV, and both rebelled against the King, joining with Owen Glyn Dwr. Hotspur was killed at the battle of Shrewsbury on 21 July 1403, although his fame outlived him. _1_
