Sir John Perring, 1st Baronet

Sir John Perring, 1st Baronet (26 April 1765 – 30 January 1831) was a British Member of Parliament who also served as Lord Mayor of London in 1803.〔 Professionally, he was a banker and a commissioner for exchequer bills.〔 On 3 October 1808 he was created a baronet, first of the Perring baronets of Membland, Devon.〔
==Civic career==
He was created an alderman in the City of London's Broad Street ward on 13 January 1798 as a clothworker.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 British History – Aldermen – Broad Street )〕 He was subsequently elected one of the Sheriffs of the City of London in 1800.〔
On 9 November 1803, Perring was proclaimed Lord Mayor of London. John Scott, 1st Earl of Eldon, in his capacity as Lord Chancellor informed King George III of Perring's appointment, privately describing Perring as "in private life a person of worth, and, in public, of sound and loyal principles".
John Silvester, the Recorder of London referenced the spectre of Napoleon Bonaparte and the burgeoning Napoleonic Wars in his announcement of Perring's appointment, stating that "At a time so awful as the present, when the country is threatened by an implacable and unprincipled enemy, it is of the last importance that the civic chair should be filled by a person in whom the greatest confidence can be placed".〔 Silvester ominously warned Perring that "The keys of the Metropolis are placed in your hands, at the moment when the enemy are at the gates".〔 The ball held later that day at Guildhall was opened with a minuet danced by Perring's eldest daughter and the Spanish Ambassador.〔 The Napoleonic wars and the threat of a French invasion had led to coastal batteries being built as fortifications along the south coast of England in the summer of 1803. Perring was furious to find that a battery had been built on land that he owned at the mouth of the River Yealm in Devon, and wrote to the Secretary of War, Lord Hobart. Perring was eventually pacified by many letters from John Graves Simcoe, who was in charge of the construction of the defences. With the threat of invasion by the French still present, Perring presented the colours of the Corporation of London to the ten regiments of the London Loyal Infantry who assembled at Blackheath on 18 May 1804. Perring was accompanied on the grand procession to Blackheath by the Earl of Harrington, Earl Amherst and Prince Frederick, Duke of York.
