The Ascot Races of 1832 were remembered for many years, not for the quality of the racing, which was variable, but for the assault on King William IV that took place on Tuesday 19 June. 'A ruffian, in the garb of a sailor, of most wretched appearance, suddenly flung a large flint stone directly at the king' The Morning Chronicle, 22 June 1832, p. 4. It hit the king on his forehand but he was saved from serious injury by his hat back. The ruffian threw a second stone but this hit the window frame.
