Abstract
AbstractThis essay examines what happened in August and September 1714, from the death of Queen Anne on 1 August to the swearing‐in of the new privy council on 1 October, specifically from the perspective of the membership of the house of lords. It confirms that most members were present in London during this period and active in parliament, the privy council, the regency, and politics generally. Very few were absent without a good reason.
