Old version of Esquire

The Esquire rank is a title of a gentleman of the rank immediately below a knight.

Besides those Esquires who are personal attendants of Knights of Orders of Knighthood, this title is held by all attendants on the person of the Sovereign, and all persons holding the Sovereign's commission being of military rank not below Captain; also, by general concession, by Barristers at Law, Masters of Arts and Bachelors of Law and Physic.

Esquires use the Style of Mister (or Miss/Misses) with the addition of the suffix "Esq.".
