John Montagu, 4th Earl of Sandwich (3 November 1718 3 April 1792) succeeded his grandfather, Edward, the 3rd Earl, in the earldom in 1729.
In August 1753 Sandwich became one of the principal secretaries of state, and while filling this office he took a leading part in the prosecution of John Wilkes.
The murder of Miss Ray by a rejected suitor in April 1779 increased the earl's unpopularity, which was already great, and the stigmas of the prosecution of Wilkes and the corrupt administration of the navy clung to him to the last.
