Speech on Civil List and prerogative in Queen Anne era
The author compares current civil list costs to the queen's time, noting alleged savings in beef pudding candles and coal and claiming 118,000 pounds of the late King's civil list received after the crown's demise. He argues against speedy parliamentary measures, cites corruption, recalls Earl Mortimer’s allegiance shifts, and ends with a remark on stock market reaction after Queen Anne's death.
