Hugh Watt, MP for Camlachie 1885-1892 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Both during and after his time as a member of
Parliament, Hugh Watt was no stranger to the |
|
|
Courts. In June 1888, he was busily engaged in
suing his fellow MP, Charles Cameron, |
|
|
|
member for the College division of Glasgow and
proprietor of the 'North British Daily Mail.' |
|
|
Cameron's paper had claimed that an address
given by Watt regarding the Northern Territory |
|
|
of Australia had been plagiarized from a book
whose author had, unknown to Watt, been |
|
|
present in the audience during the address and
had recognised his words as being her own. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In July 1892, Watt lost a libel action against
him and was forced to pay damages to the |
|
|
plaintiff. In May 1896, his wife, Mrs. Julia
Watt petitioned the Courts for a divorce on the |
|
|
grounds of Watt's adultery and cruelty, and in
May 1901, Watt was named as co-respondent |
|
|
in a divorce action broght by Sir Reginald
Proctor-Beauchamp, 5th baronet, against his wife, |
|
|
Lady Violet Proctor-Beauchamp, daughter of the
5th Earl of Roden. Watt's relationship with |
|
|
Lady Violet was to have far-reaching
consequences. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
After Sir Reginald obtained his divorce, Watt's
wife was also successful in obtaining a divorce |
|
|
from Watt. According to contemporary
newspapers, Watt then married Lady Violet. Burke's |
|
|
Peerage gives a date of 12 December 1906 as
being the date of their marriage, but the |
|
|
|
newspapers throughout 1905 all state that Watt
and Lady Violet were already married at |
|
|
that time. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In August 1905, Watt was arrested and charged
with attempting to procure the murder of |
|
|
his first wife. According to the evidence given
at his subsequent trial in December 1905, on |
|
|
10 August 1905, Watt approached a man named
Herbert Augustus Marshall, an inquiry agent |
|
|
[i.e. a private detective] and gave
instructions to have his ex-wife watched. A few days |
|
|
later, Marshall stated that he had called on
Watt at his home. Watt had produced a bottle |
|
|
containing a liquid, which he told Marshall was
chloroform. Watt had then said to Marshall; |
|
|
"You get Mrs. Watt to come here, and get
her downstairs, where I have a room prepared; |
|
|
I will give her a push and chloroform her, and
when it is all over, you must go to Dr. Blake |
|
|
of Putney, and he will certify death from heart
disease and I will have her cremated within |
|
|
48 hours." Marshall declined Watt's
suggested course of action and went straight to the |
|
|
|
police. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
On 21 December 1905, Watt was found guilty of
attempting to procure the murder of his |
|
|
wife and was sentenced to five years' penal
servitude. He served only one year of the |
|
|
|
five, being released on 10 December 1906. This
date fits in well with Burke's date for his |
|
|
|
marriage to Lady Violet two days after his
release, notwithstanding the unanimous reports |
|
|
in contemporary papers that the two were
already married. On the other hand, his death |
|
|
notice in March 1921 states that he had married
Lady Violet in 1906, thus agreeing with |
|
|
|
the date shown in Burke. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
However, a contrary and apologist view of the
whole affair was published in 'The |
|
|
|
Washington Post' of 18 July 1910:- |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'It was the daughter of the fifth Earl of
Roden, namely, Lady Violet Jocelyn, who, after |
|
|
|
her divorce from Sir Reginald [Proctor-]
Beachamp, underwent such extraordinary |
|
|
|
experiences in connection with her present and
perfectly happy marriage with Hugh Watt, |
|
|
formerly member of Parliament for Glasgow
[Camlachie], and head of the great mercantile |
|
|
house bearing his name in that city. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Watt had been named by Sir Reginald as
co-respondent. Shortly afterward Mrs. Watt |
|
|
|
secured a divorce from her husband, on the
ground of his infatuation for Lady Violet, |
|
|
|
but purposely abstained from taking the
necessary steps to render the decree absolute |
|
|
|
and complete, with the object of depriving him
of the liberty of wedding Lady Violet. In |
|
|
|
fact, Mrs. Watt, imbued with sentiments of
resentment and revenge, did everything in |
|
|
|
her power to persecute both Lady Violet and
Hugh Watt, and wound up by charging him |
|
|
|
with inciting certain persons to murder her.
[Despite the fact that the evidence in the |
|
|
|
trial goes to show that Marshall had informed
on Watt directly to the police, and that it |
|
|
|
was the police who commenced the action against
Watt.] |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Evidence was furnished by men of infamous
character, who swore that they had been |
|
|
|
employed by Hugh Watt to murder his former
wife; and although the tale which they told |
|
|
was on the face of it of the most improbable
description, since no sane man could have |
|
|
|
proposed murder in such a casual fashion to
agents so untrustworthy, and to be carried |
|
|
|
out by means so ludicrous, yet the story,
idiotic as it appeared, seemed to appeal to the |
|
|
jury, who, composed of petty tradesmen,
apparently thought that because Hugh Watt |
|
|
|
had been divorced by his own wife, and had
figured as co-respondent in another case, |
|
|
|
he was capable of every other crime. They
rendered a verdict against him, and the judge, |
|
|
Sir William Phillimore, who had but little
experience in criminal cases, instead of attempting |
|
|
to guide them, allowed himself to be swayed by
them and sentenced Watt to five years' |
|
|
penal servitude. [The judge was Sir Walter
Phillimore, not Sir William - it's errors such as |
|
|
|
these that undermine, in my view, the force of
the argument expressed by the author of |
|
|
the article.] |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Both the conviction and the sentence were
denounced by the press, and by all sensible |
|
|
people, and had the court of criminal appeal,
since inaugurated, been then in existence, |
|
|
|
it would undoubtedly quashed the case at once.
As it was, the indignation on the part of |
|
|
the public, of high and low degree, assumed
such proportions with regard to the sentence |
|
|
that the secretary of state for home affairs,
after a few months had elapsed, recommended |
|
|
to the crown its reduction to such an extent
that Watt was immediately set at liberty. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'It was only after this, and after Mrs. Watt
had still further vented her animosity upon Lady |
|
|
Violet, by suing her for libel, and by
endeavoring to bankrupt her in connection with the |
|
|
|
enormous legal costs of her divorce suit, that
she was practically forced by popular clamor |
|
|
to consent to the final legal steps necessary
to complete her divorce from Hugh Watt so |
|
|
as to permit him to wed Lady Violet. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'It is only fair to add that since then the
path of Lady Violet Watt and of her husband has |
|
|
been rendered heavier by the knowledge that not
only society, but also the public at large, |
|
|
without altogether condoning their
indiscretion, nevertheless regard them as having been |
|
|
the particularly cruelly treated victims of
gross misdirection of justice and of feminine |
|
|
|
revenge, and as such worthy of sympathy and
good will.' |

John Nichols Thom (or Tom) alias Sir William
Percy Honywood Courtenay, candidate |
|
|
for the seat of Canterbury at the 1832 general
election |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
John Nichols Thom was born in the Cornish
village of Columb Major on 10 November 1799. |
|
|
His father, William Thom, kept the local public
house, the 'Joiner's Arms.' His mother, Charity, |
|
|
died in an insane asylum when he was a child.
From her, he appears to have inherited the |
|
|
streak of insanity which shaped the remainder
of his life. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Thom left home after his mother died and took a
job as a cellarman to a wine merchant in |
|
|
Truro. Within five years he had saved enough to
marry and set himself up in business as a |
|
|
maltster. However, his extravagance kept him in
constant debt. He built a fine house and |
|
|
business premises and liked to dress in
expensive, flamboyant clothes and sport an ever- |
|
|
increasing collection of jewellery. In 1829,
fire demolished part of his warehouse and netted |
|
|
him £3,000 in insurance. Rumors that he knew
something of the blaze caused the under- |
|
|
writers to investigate further, but they could
find no evidence and the claim had to be paid. |
|
|
Using the money received from the fire claim,
Thom plunged into extensive speculation, |
|
|
|
which apparently was successful. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
By this time, Thom's mind was becoming
unhinged. In 1832, or so he claimed - grave doubts |
|
|
have been cast upon his story - Thom travelled
to Beirut to meet a woman whose exploits |
|
|
had long fired his imagination. This was Lady
Hester Stanhope, daughter of Earl Stanhope, |
|
|
who had left England to settle in Syria, where
she lived in oriental splendour. Lady Hester |
|
|
believed that a messiah was destined to appear
before her in her desert retreat and that |
|
|
she was to become his bride. Thom seems to have
thought that he would make as good a |
|
|
messiah as any, but when he presented himself
at her desert retreat, she ridiculed his claims |
|
|
and refused to see him. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Thom therefore returned to England, where he
threw himself into political agitation. At that |
|
|
time, England was seething with agitation over
the Reform Bill, which proposed greater |
|
|
|
representation of the middle class in
Parliament and the abolition of 'rotten boroughs' which |
|
|
were controlled by the aristocracy. Thom
descended upon Canterbury in Kent in the guise of |
|
|
Count Moses Rothschild, dressed in crimson
velvet, trimmed with gold. Within a week, |
|
|
|
however, he changed his alias to that of Sir
William Percy Honeywood Courtenay, airily |
|
|
|
explaining that Rothschild had been merely his
incognito. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
He stumped the country preaching a new deal for
the common people, in which they took |
|
|
over the great estates and earned wealth beyond
their wildest dreams. To spread his views, |
|
|
he started a newspaper, 'The Lion.' His popularity became so widespread that he
stood as |
|
|
a candidate in the general election of 1832 in
the seat of Canterbury, where, although |
|
|
|
unsuccessful, he gained a respectable share of
the vote. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Undeterred by his defeat, he plunged into a new
fight, in which he defended a gang of |
|
|
|
alcohol smugglers who had been captured off the
Kentish coast. He spoke so wildly that he |
|
|
was indicted for perjury and sentenced to seven
years' transportation, which he escaped |
|
|
only by pleading insanity and was locked up in
a lunatic asylum. Through the efforts of his |
|
|
father, he obtained a pardon and was released. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
He immediately resumed his masquerade as Sir
William Courtenay, but this time with the |
|
|
|
added titles of Earl of Devon, Prince of
Abyssinia and King of Jerusalem. Over the next five |
|
|
years, more and more followers rallied to him.
After Queen Victoria succeeded to the throne |
|
|
he told his followers that he would undoubtedly
enjoy considerable influence at Court. Soon, |
|
|
he was aiming even higher, when he proclaimed
himself a saviour with supernatural powers |
|
|
to resist arrest. His ignorant supporters fell
at his feet and worshipped him when he exhibited |
|
|
supposed stigmata proving his divinity. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Discarding his rich Oriental costume, he rode
from village to village on a white horse, dressed |
|
|
in a plain brown shirt, trousers and a
broad-brimmed hat. In his belt he wore two pistols and |
|
|
he carried a long sword which he called
Excalibur. A trumpet was slung over his shoulder,and |
|
|
he was preceded by two aides - one carried his
standard, a white banner with blue borders |
|
|
and a red lion in the centre, while the other
held aloft a long pole with a loaf of bread stuck |
|
|
on it as an emblem of the plenty he promised
his followers. At his meetings, Thom climaxed |
|
|
his sermons by drawing his two pistols and
firing them into the air. The pistols were loaded |
|
|
with a mixture of powder and steel filings.
Firing them caused a cloud of iridescent sparks to |
|
|
shoot into the air and fall to the ground, thus
fulfilling Thom's boast that he had powers to |
|
|
"make the stars fall from their spheres." |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
On 28 May 1838 Thom began to gather his
faithful for a grand march to London, where they |
|
|
would force the government to repeal the Poor
Law and institute other reforms. Gathering |
|
|
fresh supporters along the way, he expected
that by the time they reached London, he |
|
|
would head an army of thousands. He promised
his followers that no human power could |
|
|
harm either him or his followers. Even if
confronted by 10,000 soldiers, he could kill them all |
|
|
by hitting his left hand with his right. In the
extremely unlikely event that he himself was |
|
|
killed, he would rise from the dead after three
days. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
On 31 May 1838, Thom and his followers were
camped in a wood near the small town of |
|
|
|
Bossenden. By this time, the local authorities
were becoming alarmed, and a magistrate |
|
|
|
issued a warrant for Thom's arrest on a charge
of breach of the peace. Three constables |
|
|
were sent to execute the warrant. When they
arrived at the wood, Thom pulled out a |
|
|
|
pistol and shot Constable Nicholas Mears dead,
after which he hacked at his body with his |
|
|
sword and threw the body into a ditch. A
clergyman, the Rev. William Handley, tried to talk |
|
|
with Thom, but he had to flee for his life in a
hail of bullets. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Later that day 100 troops of the 45th Regiment
of Foot were despatched from Canterbury to |
|
|
arrest Thom and his followers. Arriving at the
camp, Lieutenant Henry Boswell Bennett |
|
|
|
advanced and called upon Thom to surrender. In
reply, Thom shot the Lieutenant dead, thus |
|
|
making Bennett the first soldier to die on
active duty during the reign of Queen Victoria. The |
|
|
shooting of their officer was the signal for a
general charge by the soldiers, leading within a |
|
|
few minutes to the deaths of ten men, including
Thom. The remainder of Thom's followers |
|
|
fled, but 25 were rounded up and thrown in
gaol. Of these captured followers, ten were later |
|
|
sentenced to death, but all were later reprieved. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Mindful of Thom's prediction that he would rise
in three days, the coroner caused his heart |
|
|
to be removed before he was buried in an
unmarked grave, over which constables stood |
|
|
|
guard until it became obvious that Thom was not
going to be resurrected. The "Battle of |
|
|
Bossenden Wood" has now gone into history
as the last battle fought on English soil. |

Francis Bennett-Goldney, MP for Canterbury
1910-1918 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Before being elected in the December 1910
general election, Bennett-Goldney had been an |
|
|
unsuccessful candidate at the January 1910
general election. In that earlier election, he |
|
|
apparently received an offer of assistance from
an Elizabeth Skinner. When Bennett-Goldney |
|
|
was unable to offer her employment, she saw
herself as "a woman scorned," and wrote a |
|
|
series of virulent letters to him and to
others, in which she alleged that Bennett-Goldney had |
|
|
spread reports that there had been immoral
relations between himself and Skinner. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Bennett-Goldney sued Skinner for publishing a
malicious libel. Skinner was brought before the |
|
|
courts on 25 February 1911, where she was found
guilty and bound over on bail of £100 until |
|
|
the next assizes, and to be of good behaviour
in the meantime. After she left the court, she |
|
|
went to the railway station where she created a
scene. The following report appeared in 'The |
|
|
Observer' of 26 February 1911:- |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'There was an unexpected sequel at Canterbury
yesterday to the trial of Elizabeth Skinner, |
|
|
better known as "Sister Bessie," who
was bound over on the previous day at the Assizes for |
|
|
having libelled Mr. F. Bennett Goldney, M.P.
for Canterbury. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'After the trial she was arrested by order of
the Judge for having molested, at the railway |
|
|
station, some of the witnesses who had given
evidence against her, and she was brought |
|
|
before his Lordship yesterday morning. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Nrs. Marshall, one of the witnesses for the
prosecution, said that at the railway station the |
|
|
defendant caught hold of her by the shoulder,
declared that she would have a new trial and |
|
|
get her revenge. The witness was very much
frightened by her conduct. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Mr. Shea, Mr. Goldney's solicitor, said that
the defendant's behaviour towards Mrs. Floyd, |
|
|
another witness, was such that the lady almost
collapsed. Subsequently the defendant went |
|
|
up to Mr. Goldney at the slope of the platform
and reviled him. As she became very |
|
|
|
threatening, Mr. Shea got between them, and
told her that if she continued to be violent he |
|
|
would have to bring her conduct under the
notice of the Judge, but this had no effect. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'In reply to the Judge, the defendant stated
that she had no intention of frightening the |
|
|
witnesses or causing a breach of the peace. All
she said to them was that she should have a |
|
|
new trial. She promised not to molest Mr.
Goldney or his witnesses in future.' |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
On 15 May 1911, Skinner was again in court
seeking leave to appeal against her conviction, |
|
|
but her application was refused. She was
subsequently sentenced to six months' imprisonment. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Bennett-Goldney had, in 1907, been appointed as
Athlone Puirsuivant of the Order of St. |
|
|
Patrick in Ireland. Not long after his
appointment the Irish Crown Jewels were stolen and they |
|
|
have never been recovered. For further
information on this theft see Sean Murphy's interesting |
|
|
web-page at http://homepage.eircom.net/~seanjmurphy/irhismys/jewels.htm |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Bennett-Goldney was killed in a car accident at
Brest in France in July 1918. Following his death |
|
|
his estate was fought over in the Probate
Division - he had left eight wills and codicils. |

John Sadleir, MP for Carlow 1847-1853 and Sligo
1853-1856 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Sadlier was born in 1813 at Shrove Hill,
Tipperary in Ireland, the son of Clement William |
|
|
|
Sadlier, who was described as having the
occupation of 'Irish gentleman.' Young Sadleir |
|
|
|
established a legal practice in Dublin and, as
his practice grew, became a director with a |
|
|
local stock company, frequently visiting
England where he encouraged financiers to invest |
|
|
in Irish enterprises. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
By his early thirties, he realised that his
business ambitions could never mature in Ireland, |
|
|
so he sold his practice and moved to London,
where he established himself as agent for |
|
|
|
several Irish companies. He made a big
impression on the London business world; personable |
|
|
and brimming with aggressive efficiency, he
soon established himself as an important |
|
|
|
financier. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In 1847, he entered Parliament as the Liberal
member for Carlow in southern Ireland. With his |
|
|
reputation growing continually, he next turned
his attention to railway investment. |
|
|
|
Unaccustomed to doing things by halves, he
quickly invested in the Royal Swedish, the East |
|
|
Kent, the Swiss, the Grand Junction and the
Rome Line railways. Nor did he neglect to make |
|
|
his mark in the House of Commons. His fluency
of speech and grasp of economics won him |
|
|
many admirers and there were those who believed
that he would one day become Chancellor |
|
|
of the Exchequer. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
His next large venture was the foundation of
joint stock bank in Tipperary, which he put |
|
|
|
under the direction of his younger brother
James (qv under Tipperary). In 1848, he reached |
|
|
the summit of acceptance in London's financial
circles when he was appointed chairman of |
|
|
the London and County Bank, one of Britain's
leading financial institutions. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Meanwhile, in Parliament, despite the
unpopularity of the cause in England, he was vigorously |
|
|
defending Roman Catholic interests against the
onslaughts made against them. To this end, |
|
|
he co-founded, in 1851, the Catholic Defence
Association. Sadleir was one of the leading |
|
|
defenders when the Prime Minister, Lord John
Russell, introduced the Ecclesiastical Titles Bill, |
|
|
which was aimed against the Catholic clergy in
England. Sadleir was amongst those who, |
|
|
because of their vigorous opposition to the
Bill, won the collective title of 'the Pope's Brass |
|
|
Band.' |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When Russell's government fell in 1852, he was
offered the post of a Lord of the Treasury by |
|
|
the new Prime Minister, Lord Aberdeen, who was
a notorious anti-Catholic. Sadleir accepted |
|
|
this offer, which incurred the immediate
animosity of the Catholic clergy, as well as his |
|
|
|
electoral supporters in Ireland. Realising that
he would never retain his seat of Carlow after |
|
|
having aligned himself with an anti-Catholic
Prime Minister, he successfully contested Sligo, |
|
|
a seat with a small Catholic population. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Sadleir was now at the peak of his career;
there was talk of an impending knighthood. Then, |
|
|
slowly, his façade of financial and political
solidity began to crumble. It began when rumours |
|
|
seeped through the stock exchange which
suggested that Sadleir's business methods were |
|
|
not entirely orthodox. Sadleir, at the Prime
Minister's suggestion, resigned his post of Lord of |
|
|
the Treasury on 6 March 1854. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This resignation caused uneasiness among the
thousands of shareholders in his string of |
|
|
|
companies; nor was the staid board of the
London and County Bank happy about its |
|
|
|
chairman's dwindling reputation. He was called
before the Bank's board and asked to resign. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There was good reason for all this fear, for,
at the time, the rumours began, Sadleir had |
|
|
|
already cheated the investors in his businesses
of hundreds of thousands of pounds. For |
|
|
years he had been issuing spurious shares,
forging title deeds to estates and property and |
|
|
circulating worthless securities. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In February 1856, the Tipperary Bank's London
agents, Glyn & Co., refused to pay on |
|
|
|
draughts of the bank. Sadleir tried to raise
money from other finance houses, but all refused |
|
|
to help him. As a last resort, he called on an
old acquaintance, Josiah Wilkinson, head of a |
|
|
firm of solicitors who had often loaned money
to Sadleir in the past. Sadleir begged his old |
|
|
friend to help him, but Sadleir's agitation
only confirmed to Wilkinson the truth of the rumours |
|
|
he had been hearing, and Wilkinson declined to
lend any more money to Sadleir. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Around 9 o'clock on the evening of 16 February
1856 Sadleir instructed a housemaid to post |
|
|
a letter to the wife of his brother James. He
also told the girl that, on the way back, she was |
|
|
to go to a chemist and buy some prussic acid.
An hour or so later, after the housemaid had |
|
|
returned, he gave his butler some letters to
post and then quietly left the house. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Next morning, a Hampstead Heath donkey-driver
named Joseph Bates went looking on the |
|
|
Heath for a strayed animal. There he found the
body of a well-dressed man lying on the wet |
|
|
grass, an empty bottle marked 'Poison' by his
side. Sadleir's butler identified the body and, at |
|
|
the subsequent inquest, the coroner found that
Sadleir had committed suicide. One of the |
|
|
letters that Sadleir had written before leaving
his house was to his friend Robert Keating [MP |
|
|
for co. Waterford 1847-1852 and Waterford City
1852-1857] in which he admitted having |
|
|
swindled and deceived and said that he alone
was responsible for the embezzlements. The |
|
|
letter to his sister-in-law contained this
passage: 'My death will prove that I am not callous |
|
|
to the agony of the people I have robbed.' |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Investigations made into Sadleir's companies
showed that he had embezzled £200,000 from |
|
|
the Tipperary Bank and had issued £150,000
worth of valueless securities in one of his |
|
|
|
railway companies. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For years rumours circulated that Sadleir was
not dead and that the body found on |
|
|
|
Hampstead Heath was that of another person. It
was pointed out that he would have good |
|
|
reason to fake his own death. It was also
contended that, because no cab-driver could be |
|
|
found to say he had driven a man from Hyde Park
to Hampstead Heath on the night in |
|
|
|
question, Sadleir must have walked there, yet,
despite the wet conditions on that night, |
|
|
the dead man's shoes were perfectly clean. As
far as I am aware, very little, if any, of the |
|
|
stolen £350,000 was ever recovered. |

Arthur MacMurrough Kavanagh, MP for co. Wexford
1866-1868 |
|
|
|
|
and co. Carlow 1868-1880 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Kavanagh was the son of Thomas Kavanagh, who
was on three occasions MP for co. Carlow |
|
|
before and after the passing of the Reform
Bill. Arthur, who could trace his descent from the |
|
|
ancient kings of Leinster, was born with only
vestigial arms and legs, but this did not |
|
|
|
stop him from having a successful political
career. He learnt to ride in the most fearless way, |
|
|
strapped in a special saddle, and was also a
yachtsman, a crack shot with a rifle, a keen |
|
|
fisherman, an artist, an author and an early
amateur photographer. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The story has it that when Arthur's mother
first married Thomas Kavanagh, she insisted that |
|
|
two religious statues be removed from the
family's private chapel. In this way, she wished to |
|
|
prove that she had denounced her Catholicism.
The local peasant population was, however, |
|
|
not pleased with this action and, according to
legend, they put a curse on the Kavanaghs |
|
|
that one day they would be led by a cripple. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Despite his physical handicaps, Arthur was an
inveterate traveller in his younger days. He |
|
|
spent a large portion of his youth in foreign
travel, especially to Egypt and the Middle East. |
|
|
His major journey occurred in 1852, when, with
two companions, he rode overland from |
|
|
|
Norway to India, via Russia and Persia. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When his older brother Charles was killed in a
fire in 1853, Arthur became head of the family, |
|
|
and proved himself to be a natural leader. In
1855, he married his cousin, Frances Mary |
|
|
|
Leathley, the marriage producing six children.
He was a model landlord, something of a |
|
|
|
rarity in mid nineteenth-century Ireland. He
rebuilt the villages of Borris and Ballyragget, |
|
|
|
using plans drawn by himself and which won the
Royal Dublin Society's Medal. To provide |
|
|
timber for his tenants to build their houses,
he organized a free sawmill. His wife instructed |
|
|
the villagers in floriculture and lace-making. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
He was first elected to the House of Commons in
1866, making him the first limbless man ever |
|
|
to sit in that House. Whilst a member, he
travelled from his home to London in his two- |
|
|
|
masted schooner, which he moored directly below
the Houses of Parliament, thus |
|
|
|
re-establishing an ancient right of members of
Parliament which had fallen out of disuse over |
|
|
the centuries. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
After failing to be re-elected in 1880, Arthur
was appointed Lord Lieutenant of co. Carlow |
|
|
and was sworn of the Privy Council of Ireland
in 1886. He died of pneumonia on Christmas |
|
|
Day morning of 1889. It was said of him at his
death that 'he did not equal any man, but few |
|
|
men equalled him.' |

Edmund Dwyer Gray, MP for co.Carlow 1880-1885
and St.Stephen's Green 1885-1888 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Gray first came to the attention of the public
in 1868, when he won a bravery award from |
|
|
the Royal Humane Society following his rescue
of five people off a wrecked schooner off |
|
|
|
the Irish coast. After completing his
education, Gray in 1875 succeeded his father as the |
|
|
proprietor of a number of newspapers, including
'Freeman's Journal', the leading nationalist |
|
|
newspaper in Ireland during this period. He was
also, at the time of the events outlined in |
|
|
this note, the High Sheriff of Dublin. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In August 1882, a man named Francis Hynes was
found guilty of murdering a caretaker in |
|
|
co.Clare. After his trial had concluded, the
following letter appeared in the 'Freeman's |
|
|
|
Journal' :- |
