Peter King, 1st Baron King
Peter King, 1st Baron King (c. 1669–22 July 1734) was an English lawyer and politician, who became Lord Chancellor of England.
==Life==
He was born in Exeter in 1669, and educated at Exeter Grammar School.〔〕
In his youth he was interested in early church history, and published anonymously in 1691 ''An Enquiry into the Constitution, Discipline, Unity and Worship of the Primitive Church that flourished within the first Three Hundred Years after Christ''. This treatise engaged the interest of his cousin, John Locke, the philosopher, by whose advice his father sent him to the university of Leiden, where he stayed for nearly three years. He entered the Middle Temple in 1694 and was called to the bar in 1698.
In 1700 he was returned to parliament for Bere Alston in Devon; he was appointed recorder of Glastonbury in 1705 and recorder of London in 1708. He was chief justice of the common pleas from 1714 to 1725, when he was appointed speaker of the House of Lords and was raised to the peerage. In June of the same year he was made lord chancellor, holding office until compelled by a paralytic stroke to resign in 1733. He was admitted a Fellow of the Royal Society on 14 November 1728.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Lists of Royal Society Fellows )〕 He died at Ockham, Surrey, on 22 July 1734.
