Abstract
We prove the lattice freely generated by three distributive elements and the lattice freely generated by two distributive elements and one dually distributive element contain the free lattice of rank 3 as sublattice. We describe the lattice freely generated by two distributive elements and one both distributive and dually distributive element. It is infinite, but does not contain the free lattice of rank 3 as a sublattice.
