To the memory of Adm. Sir Richard Goodwin Keats, G.C.B., Governor of this Hospital, who was his Majesty's shipmate and watchmate on board the Prince George, of 110 guns, in which this Admiral served as Lieutenant, and the King as Midship. man, from June 1779 to November 1781. In commemoration of this early period of their respective careers, the King desires also to record his esteem for the exemplary character of a friend, and his grateful sense of the valuable services rendered to his country by a highly distinguished and gallant officer.

This tablet is erected to his memory by the Lord Mayor, many of the Aldermen and members of the Common Council, City officers, and other personal friends, as a testimony of their admiration of the professional talent and unsullied integrity by which the performance of his public duties was discharged, as well as of the Christian piety and unostentatious benevolence which adorned his private life."
