George III. (I). 1738, (I. 1320), King of

England, son of Frederick, Prince of Wales,
who died in 1751; took an active part
in affairs until incapacitated by illness.
Having ascended the throne in 1760, he
married Charlotte of Mccklcnburg-Stre-
litz; obtained the resignation of Pitt
and Newcastle, and appointed Lord Bate,
who had been his governor, minister,
but was again for a time oblihil to
submit to the “’11 . was strongly in
favour of the prose tiou of “fillies, and
against any concessions to the nerican
colonies; obtained a minister to carry out
his wishes in Lord North, who held ol‘iice
from 1770 to 1783; by unconstitutional in-
fluence obtained the overthrow of the coali-
tion ministry, but submitted almost entirely
to the influence of the younger Pitt, until
he proposed a measure for the relief of the
Roman Catholics. In 1772 he obtained the
passing of a stringent Act regulating mar-
riages in the royal family. In 1786 his life
was attempted by Margaret Nicholson, and
in 1788 his first illness withdrew him from
affairs for several months. In 1800 his life
was again attempted, and from the year
1810, when he again became insane, his
reign was practically at an end. Although
not a man of education, he became patron
of the Royal Academy when it was founded
in 1786, and of the Royal Institution in
1799. He was very painstaking in business,
but narrow in his views, and not invariably
scrupulous as to the methods by which he
got rid of ministers Who refused to act as
his clerks. 2 5 , . :.'
