He was educated at New College. Oxford, and was born in 1835. He has repre. sented Rutlandshire since 1867, and will probably continue to do so as long as Fe cares for the honour. He is. fiscally, a Balfourian. He was made P.C. iYi 1902.” At the last election, after a number of unopposed returns for Rutlandshire, an opponent cropped up in Mr H. W. Pearson, who was defeated by 483 votes out of 3611 polled.)
