He held the office of Vice-Admiral of Lincolnshire from 1705 and the stewardship of the honor of Tickhill from 1708, retaining both for the rest of his life. At the 1708 British general election, he was again returned unopposed. He voted for the impeachment of Dr Sacheverell in 1710 and lost his seat again in the 1710 British general election.
