Letter to Lord North on Regulating Royal Marriages
A London Evening Post letter to Lord North argues against the proposed Bill to regulate future marriages of the Royal Family. It rebuts 1717 judicial reasoning, warns of royal power and parliamentary limits, and critiques historical precedents cited to justify state control over dynastic matchups. The writer condemns the bill as dangerous to liberty and constitutional order.
