Hi! I'll review this article for GA status, and should have a full review up shortly. Dana boomer ( talk) 16:44, 20 January 2013 (UTC)
"Whatever the reason, the Board of Trade engaged in a reshuffling of colonial positions after King George II died, and Pownall was given the governorship of South Carolina, and permission to first take leave in England. His departure from Boston was delayed by militia recruiting issues and the need to deal with the aftermath of a major fire in the city, and he did not leave until June 1760." George II did not die until October 1760, so it cannot be, as this sentence suggests, that he received leave to return to England sometime prior to June as a consequence of the King's death.
