He was rewarded with an earldom by William III. He was appointed Commander-in Chief of the allied forces in the War of the Spanish Succession by Queene Anne. For this resounding victories over the French (Blenheim, 1704, Ramillies, 1706, Oudenarde, 1708 and Malplaquet, 1709) he was rewarded with wealth and honours, but the increasing unpopularity of the war and his personal arrogance contributed to his dismissal by Queen Anne in 1711.
