Epithetof Hinchingbrooke House
ActivityJohn Montagu, 5th Earl of Sandwich (1744-1814) was not a leading statesman in the same way as his famous father, but he also devoted most of his adult life to politics. He first entered the House of Commons when he was only 21 years old and remained there until he ascended to the House of Lords. He appears to have been a natural follower in this time, adhering loyally to the agenda firstly of his father and latterly of Pitt the Younger, while not being a sufficiently impressive figure to be entrusted with high office in the same way his father was. Before entering politics he had spent a decade in the military and appears to have seen at least some active duty in this time. Sir Nathaniel William Wraxall, 1st Baronet (1751-1831) wrote of the 5th Earl that ‘If he fell far below his father in ability, application, and talents for public business, he possessed greater private virtues.’ What these 'private virtues' may have been is not known.
