ADAM CLARKE B.A. Anne was a kind-hearted and well- meaning woman, rather slow of under- standing and obstinate, though usually the allowing her-elf to be led by those whom to she liked. From girlhood she had been libe ruled by the handsome, yet domineering, luti ‘Sarah Jennings, wife ef John Churchill. pre afterwards Duke of Marlborough. for \V.;Liu a week of Anne's accession 88!: ‘ Marlborough was made Captain-General ing of the forces; he was the ablest man of rec the time as a general and statesman. rig though he owed his favor with Anne qn chiefly to his wife’s influence. He was In brave, gentle, 3f nnmoveable serenity of Wt temper, and noted for the care and ed 1 humanity which he showed toward prison- oil ers of war, yet he was not free from the to political faithlessness of the age. After of having, at the Revolution. deserted bl James for William, he had been disgraced tc for treasonable intrigues with James ;§yet (11 William foreseeing that he would be the. t( \‘ moving spirit in his snccessor's reign, had i; afterwards given him high command, and ti employed him in negiotating foreign v alliances. Though his wife now sided s with the Whigs, who supported the late I 8 King’s war policy. Marlborough himself ,_ passed for a Tory, and therety gained greater influence with the queen, who i l‘ loved the church and the Tories, whom l 5| she called “The Church Party.” But it ‘, " may he said he belonged to no party, his main objects being that war should be ms declared, and that he should command me the English forces. Thus his policy ran 5;: contrary to that of the Tories, who thought that England ought, as much as possible. to confine herself to naval warfare, and not to undertake great military operations on the continent. A dislike of armed lup interference in continental politics, in- herited from the time of William, con- g3: tinned to be a mark ofa Tog-y, until the , French Revolution at the close of 1331-, century, when the course of European politics was changed, and the Tories be- ban’t they, Bobs?

In 1710 Godol phin was dismissed and a Tory ministry came into office. The new ministers, Earl of Oxford and Viscount Bolingbroke, set themselves to put an end to the war; and this they brought about in an under- hand manner, keeping Marlborough the allies in the dark. At last he was charged by the House of Commons with peculatlon, and was dismissed by the Queen from all his employments.

Intending to keep out of office all who were not really members of the establish- ed church, the Act of 1711 forbade any officer, civil or military. or any magistrate ‘ to be present at a conventicle, under pain ' of fine and loss of office.
