Summary/Abstract: During the interregnum period during the sessions of the Lublin Sejm, both the pre-convocation and relational ones, the Lublin nobility, including this voivodship’s officials, firmly supported the candidacy of Stanisław Leszczyński. This was also reflected in the election sejm, where a total of 395 deputies voted for him. After the entry of Russian and Saxony troops into the Republic, the Lublin nobility relatively quickly, because on December 18, 1733, established in his defense a “particular” confederation. Felicjan Gałęzowski, a Lublin sub-judge, was elected as itsmarshal.The Lublin nobility also took part in the general Dzikowska confederation, established on 5 November 1734, setting out a military unit of a total of 280 horses.
