On the Prince Regent taking over for his father, King George III...
Item # 713639
April 27, 1811
THE LONDON GAZETTE, England, April 27, 1811 During the latter years of his reign, King George III was declared mentally incapable of carrying on his duties. Thus, the "Care of the King During his Illness Act" of 1811 came into play, giving his son, the Prince Regent and the future King George IV, the authority to act in his father's behalf.
All of pages 1-6 are taken up with various letters "To the Prince Regent" from legislative bodies & other groups offering their acknowledgement of his taking over the Royal authority for his incapacitated father.
Complete in 28 pages, 7 1/2 by 11 3/4 inches, very nice condition.
