Page "Timeline of the history of Gibraltar" Paragraph 76

* 1711-The British government, then in the hands of the Tories, covertly ordered the British Gibraltar governor, Thomas Stanwix, to expel any foreign ( not British ) troops ( to foster Great Britain's sole right to Gibraltar in the negotiations running up between Britain and France ).

Although he answered positively, he allowed a Dutch regiment to stay.

It remained there until March 1713.
