When a Jacobite plot to assassinate William III was discovered in 1696, supporters of William and his whig-dominated ministry pointed out similarities between this Assassination Plot and the 1683 Rye House Plot against Charles II. Embodying the links between the plots in these accounts was Robert Ferguson, a notorious radical whig who had become a Jacobite active in writing and plotting against King William. Representing the 1683 and 1696 plots as equivalent allowed establishment whigs to distance themselves from pre-revoutionary whig plotting, while portraying the Jacobites as representing a radicalism willing to use rebellion and regicide to achieve its goals.

讲述一个更名的故事:黑麦屋阴谋与 1696 年暗杀阴谋的当代比较

1696 年,当詹姆士党人暗杀威廉三世的阴谋被发现时,威廉及其辉格党主导的内阁的支持者指出,这个暗杀阴谋与 1683 年针对查理二世的黑麦屋阴谋有相似之处。体现这些故事情节之间联系的是罗伯特·弗格森(Robert Ferguson),他是臭名昭著的激进辉格党人,他已成为活跃于写作和密谋反对威廉国王的雅各布派分子。将 1683 年和 1696 年的阴谋表示为对等,允许建制派辉格党与革命前的辉格党阴谋保持距离,同时将雅各布派描绘成愿意使用叛乱和弑君来实现其目标的激进主义。
