Happy Birthday, George III
(King 1760-1820)

born June 4th, 1738
(died insane 1/29/1820)

The Antelope sailed on this day in 1738.  We know that from:

    Oh the year was seventeen seventy eight
        I wish I was in Sherbrooke now!
    A letter of marque came from the King
    To the scummiest vessel I've ever seen.
               ----------------------------
    On the King's birthday we put to sea.
        I wish I was in Sherbrooke now!
    Etc.
