(2) Charles Edward Stuart (the Young Pretender) was Catholic, the eldest son of James Francis Stuart (the Old Pretender) and grandson of James II of England (1633-1701) who succeeded to the throne upon the death of his brother Charles II in 1685. In the Glorious Revolution of 1688, the Protestant William III and Mary took the crown of Britain, leaving James II to escape to France. On 1st January 1766 James Francis Stuart died, leaving Charles Edward Stuart to claim the British crown as Charles III in exile, as part of the Jacobite succession.

1763 CIDER ACT A creamware teapot and cover, c.1763-66, the ovoid body painted in black with the inscription 'No Cyder Act', the reverse with 'Apples at Liberty' within red scrolling cartouches, incised with a trellis band, set with crabstock spout and double strap handle, the cover with a floral knop, 16.6cm across. (2) To pay for the ever-mounting cost of the Seven Years War, Lord Bute introduced the Cider Bill in 1763. Such was its unpopularity, especially in the West Country, that he was forced to resign later that same year in favour George Grenville. Grenville was successful in defeating an opposition motion to repeal the bill the following year, however it was finally repealed in 1766. This style of painting is often associated with the workshops of Robinson and Rhodes of Leeds but recent excavations in Staffordshire have produced similar styles of painting to that of the Leeds workshop. Provenance: with Sampson & Horne, March 2007, item 07/36 in their catalogue.

(2) John Wilkes (1725-1797) was a radical English politician who represented the seat of Aylesbury. Also a journalist, his criticism of the King's opening of Parliament speech in issue 45 of his magazine 'The North Briton' earned him a warrant for his arrest for libel in 1763. Citing parliamentary privilege, he was cleared of the charge and went on to become Lord Mayor of London in 1774. Provenance: with Sampson & Horne, June 2007.
