John Stuart, 3rd Earl of Bute - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (690 words)
A close relative of the Campbell clan (his mother was a daughter of the First Duke of Argyll), Bute succeeded to the earldom upon his father's death in 1723.
Bute arranged for Prince George and his brother Edward to follow a course of lectures on natural philosophy by the itinerant lecturer Stephen Demainbray.
This led to an increased interest in natural philosophy on the part of the young prince and was one in a series of events that led to the establishment of the George III Collection of natural philosophical instruments.
