Often riding into the most dangerous areas himself at the head of a delegation of his Ministers, he subsequently set up an enormous rebuilding programme for the city and a large relief fund for all those who had been made homeless or unemployed by the disaster.
Previously dismissed by the British public as a lazy playboy, it was his brave and excellent handling of the Great Fire disaster that won him respect and admiration from his subjects.
