Official Announcement from the Royal Court
It is with the deepest concern and solemn duty that we inform the public of His Majesty King George IIIâs present condition. His Majesty, owing to a severe and continued indisposition of mind, has been placed in careful seclusion under the constant attention of his physicians.
For the stability of the realm and the welfare of the people, it has been resolved that His Royal Highness George IV, Prince of Wales, shall assume the duties of Regent. His Royal Highness will act in His Majestyâs stead, governing with all the authority vested in the Crown, until such time as His Majesty may, by Godâs mercy, be restored to health.
We ask that all subjects of the Crown continue to hold His Majesty in their loyal prayers, trusting in Providence that his strength and soundness may be restored.
God Save the King.
