I once had a little book about weird and wonderful laws (many still active) in the UK. I remember there was one story in it about I think his name was Earl Ferrers - he was mad, shot his steward and was tried before his Peers. His peers being peers they were the House of Lords. I think he was hung in the end.

No... he was wasn't, meat gets hung, those executed by hanging get hanged. Subtle difference I know, but a fairly important one nevertheless.
