Frederick III John Otto Francis Christian Philip, prince of Salm-Kyrburg, Hornes and Overijse, Gemen and Count of Solre-le-Château. Frederick was the eldest son of Philip Joseph, Prince of Salm-Kyrburg and Princess Maria Theresa of Hornes. He grew up at the French court. Through his mother, the eldest daughter of Maximilian, Prince of Hornes, he inherited all the possessions of the Hornes family. He held the title from 1779 to 1794. ==Dutch Patriots== (詳細はDutch Republic during the era of the Patriots as a negotiator with the Austrian emperor Joseph II, to dismantle the Barrier treaties 1709-1715. As commander of the Legion of the Rhine (Legioen van de Rijngraaf van Salm), formed by Count of Salm during the Kettle War in 1784, his troops were responsible for the defense of the republic. The troops included eight companies of Hussars, two companies of Jaegers, and six companies of Foot, including sharpshooters. In 1786, Holland employed him to maintain an army, but six months later dismissed his regiment to save money. In Amsterdam a fund was set up to support his troops so that Von Salm, eager to replace the Stadtholder, could remain.〔 Christiaens, W. & M. Evers (2002) ''Patriotse illusies in Amsterdam en Harderwijk'', p. 106〕 On May 12, 1787 Frederick led the army to Utrecht, to protect the Patriot occupation of the "democratic Eldorado". On the 28 June, he marched to Woerden to capture princess Wilhelmina of Prussia, the wife of the Prince of Orange.〔 Knoops, W.A. & F.Ch. Meijer (1987) Goejanverwellesluis. De aanhouding van de prinses van Oranje op 28 juni 1787 door het vrijkorps van Gouda, p. 30, 63.〕 Early September 1787, the Gelderse Hunters corps occupied Makkum on the initiative of Court Lambertus van Beyma. When Frederick William II of Prussia invaded the Dutch Republic, Frederick left Utrecht three days later, without giving battle.〔S. Schama, ''Patriots and Liberators, Revolution in the Netherland 1780-1813'', p. 129-30〕 His regiment retreated through Amsterdam to Weesp, and Frederick endured heavy criticism. There are different versions of what happened next. He may have remained hidden for a few months in the house of Henry Hope. Possibly he secretly left the city of Amsterdam within a week and stopped in Jever, but as East-Frisia was Prussian, not very likely. He may have fled to his brother at Grumbach in the Rhineland-Palatinate〔 Nieuwe Nederlandse Jaarboeken 1787, 5386.〕 In the summer of 1788 one of the leading patriots Pieter Paulus refused to admit him on a visit to Paris.〔 Vles, E.J. (2004) Pieter Paulus (1753–1796) Patriot en Staatsman, p. 84.〕 In 1791 Quint Ondaatje, his personal assistant, wrote him an apology. In 1794 Von Salm was guillotined together with Alexandre de Beauharnais, the lover of Amalie Zephyrine van Salm-Kyrburg, for their ties with the "Ancien Régime". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Frederick III, Prince of Salm-Kyrburg」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
