John Fuller, MP for Southampton 1780-1784 and
Sussex 1801-1812 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following is extracted from "The
Emperor of the United States of America and Other |
|
|
Magnificent British Eccentrics" by
Catherine Caufield (Routledge & Kegan Paul, London 1981) |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Mad
Jack', or 'Honest Jack', as he liked to be called, was MP from 1801 to 1812
for Rose |
|
|
Hill (now Brightling) [sic - there has never
been a constituency named Rose Hill - Fuller was |
|
|
MP for the county of Sussex]. His political
nature was fiery to say the least. He more than |
|
|
once caused an uproar in the House and had to
be ejected forcibly when he referred to the |
|
|
Speaker as 'the insignificant little fellow in
the wig'. He was a large man (twenty-two stone |
|
|
and nicknamed 'Hippo') with a bluff manner, a
sense of humour and no pretensions. Declining |
|
|
Pitt's
offer of a peerage, he said "I was born Jack Fuller and Jack Fuller I'll
die." He loved |
|
|
Rose
Hill and commissioned Turner to paint five pictures of the area. When
unemployment |
|
|
was
high Fuller built walls on his property just as a means of providing jobs for
the local |
|
|
people. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
His
memory endures, however, chiefly through his love of follies. He erected a
domed |
|
|
rotunda
and a 'hermit's tower' on his estate, not to mention the Brightling Needle,a
65 foot |
|
|
high obelisk which to this day remains a Sussex
landmark. The Sugar Loaf Folly at Dallington |
|
|
was
built as the result of a bet Fuller made with a neighbour that he could see
the |
|
|
|
distinctive
conical spire of Dallington Church from his window at Rose Hill. When he
found on |
|
|
returning
home that he could do no such thing, Fuller, in a joking attempt to maintain
his |
|
|
credit,
built a forty-foot replica of the spire on a nearby hill to give the illusion
of a half |
|
|
visible church. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
His masterpiece is undoubtedly the pyramidal
mausoleum he had built for himself in Brightling |
|
|
Churchyard from the designs of Sir Robert
Smirke, the architect of the British Museum. The |
|
|
reason Fuller gave for declining to be buried
conventionally was his fear of being eaten by |
|
|
his relatives. "The worms", he
explained, "would eat me, the ducks would eat the worms and |
|
|
my
relatives would eat the ducks." Inside, it is said, Fuller sits in an
armchair wearing a top |
|
|
hat and holding a bottle of claret. Around him
broken glass is scattered so that "when the |
|
|
devil comes to claim his own he might at least
cut his feet." |

Alan
Kenneth McKenzie Clark, MP for Plymouth Sutton 1974-1992 and Kensington |
|
|
and Chelsea 1997-1999 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Alan Clark was the son of the distinguished art
historian, Kenneth, Baron Clark (1903-1983). |
|
|
He was proud to be labelled politically
incorrect and whenever he was so labelled, he took |
|
|
it as a compliment. He frequently expressed
admiration for Hitler, and he was very indignant |
|
|
at being called a fascist. "I am not a
fascist", he insisted. "Fascists are shopkeepers, I am a |
|
|
Nazi." He liked to refer to Africa as
'Bongo Bongo land' and he kept an attack dog named |
|
|
Eva, after Hitler's mistress. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Clark was admired in some quarters as a
military historian. His first book, The Donkeys, was |
|
|
a revisionist history of World War I which
greatly upset the Army establishment and has |
|
|
since been condemned for being too one-sided in
its treatment of WWI generals. The book |
|
|
later formed the basis for the pacifist musical
Oh What a Lovely War. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When he was at the Ministry of Defence, he
advised Matrix Churchill, a British machine tools |
|
|
manufacturer,
on how to circumvent sales embargoes to Iraq. He later admitted that, at the |
|
|
trial of three of Matrix Churchill's directors,
he had committed perjury - or, as he put it in his |
|
|
characteristic way "I was economic with
the actualitie." |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Clark is best known for his Diaries, published in 1994 and
2000, which were dramatised by |
|
|
the
BBC in 2004, starring John Hurt as Clark. The diaries include accounts of his
various |
|
|
sexual
adventures, including affairs with the wife of a South African judge and her
two |
|
|
daughters, a trio he called 'the coven.' |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To
date he is the only Member of Parliament to have been accused of being drunk
at the |
|
|
dispatch box. In 1983, while a minister in the
Department of Employment, he was making a |
|
|
reading of a Bill in the Commons after a
wine-tasting dinner. The complexities of the Bill were |
|
|
too unclear for him to answer questions, and
the opposition MP, Clare Short, stood up and, |
|
|
after
acknowledging that MPs cannot formally accuse each other of being drunk in
the |
|
|
House of Commons, accused him of being
'incapable', a euphemism which every member |
|
|
understood. In his diaries, Clark later
admitted that he had been affected by the wine- |
|
|
tasting. He died from a brain tumour in 1999. |

George Hudson, MP for Sunderland 1845-1859 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
George Hudson was a director of railway and
shipping companies, coal, iron and glassmaking |
|
|
concerns, real estate, banking and newspapers.
In addition, he was a thorough crook. His |
|
|
specialty was ripping off money by the hundreds
of thousands from phony railway deals. In |
|
|
partnership with a gang of cronies, Hudson
formed a series of nominal companies which did |
|
|
no
more than raise huge sums for railway systems that were never built.
Eventually, |
|
|
|
Hudson's
companies collapsed, leaving thousands of investors penniless as the bottom
fell |
|
|
out of railway shares. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
At the age of 15, Hudson was forced to flee his
home village in disgrace after fathering a |
|
|
child.
He moved to York, where he was apprenticed to a firm of drapers and was soon |
|
|
stepping out with Elizabeth, the daughter of
James Nicholson,one of the two owners of |
|
|
the drapery. George and Elizabeth were married,
and not long after, Elizabeth's father died, |
|
|
leaving George as half-owner of the business.
The subsequent death of the other owner |
|
|
gave him the drapery business lock, stock and
barrel. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Hudson might have remained a successful
middle-class business had he not, out of the blue, |
|
|
inherited the then huge sum of £30,000 from a
wealthy uncle. Hudson had already entered |
|
|
local
politics and had been elected Mayor of York on three occasions (1837, 1838
and |
|
|
1846). Looking around for somewhere to invest
his windfall, Hudson was attracted to |
|
|
|
railways. He believed they would eventually
replace canal barges and to that end he set up |
|
|
the North Midland Railway Company. In 1837,
work began on the construction of the line |
|
|
south from York. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
On 29 May 1839, the line was officially opened
and practically overnight the value of the |
|
|
company's shares increased substantially.
Hudson was still not satisfied, and he invested |
|
|
heavily in the Great North of England Railway
Company which was building its line north |
|
|
from York to Newcastle-on-Tyne. This, too,
proved successful and the profits fired Hudson's |
|
|
determination to push a line right through to
Edinburgh. He subscribed five times as much |
|
|
capital as any other director in the new
company and guaranteed shareholders a 6% |
|
|
|
dividend. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
With such successes behind him, it was
inevitable that Hudson's ambition should lead him |
|
|
to acquiring opposition railway lines. He
masterminded the amalgamation of three competing |
|
|
lines converging on Derby and named the result
the Midland Railway Company. In order to |
|
|
get
rid of the remaining competition, Hudson began undercutting their fares and
freight |
|
|
charges. He spent half a million pounds buying
a 12,000 acre estate to stop the extension |
|
|
of a rival line. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To suck every penny out of his railway complex,
Hudson employed boys to do men's work |
|
|
and worked his engine-drivers 13 hours a day, 7
days a week for five shillings. Eventually |
|
|
the drivers demanded more pay and shorter
hours. The result was that on Christmas Eve |
|
|
the lot were sacked and replaced by unemployed
and half-starved men who were not |
|
|
|
concerned about scabbing as long as they could
eat. But on 12 January 1843, a man |
|
|
|
working on a line at Cudworth was killed by a
train under the control of a driver who had |
|
|
fallen asleep from sheer exhaustion. Following
the coroner's inquiry, drivers were granted |
|
|
one day off per week and those who were
obviously incompetent were replaced. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
By
1845 Hudson controlled 1000 miles of track and had been elected to the House
of |
|
|
|
Commons. He was now a man of consequence, the
owner of a London mansion, a |
|
|
|
friend of Prince Albert and constantly
surrounded by businessmen hoping for stock exchange |
|
|
tips. Even the Duke of Wellington sought his
advice when one of Wellington's female |
|
|
|
relatives was in financial trouble because some
rail stock she had purchased had collapsed. |
|
|
Hudson came to the rescue - he used money
supplied by Wellington's relative to buy shares |
|
|
in a hopeless company. Then he let the word
spread that he was investing heavily in that |
|
|
concern. Overnight, share values shot sky-high
and Hudson unloaded his shares. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In
1848 Hudson's companies owned 1435 miles of track which included all the
major systems |
|
|
between London and Bristol in the south, and
London and Berwick in the north. The capital |
|
|
value of his companies was around £30 million.
Then, slowly, the huge profits the companies |
|
|
were making began to shrink after the impact of
the European revolutions of 1848 and the |
|
|
consequent
trade recession. Dividends plummeted from 9% to 2%, and when share values |
|
|
fell well below par, shareholders demanded an
inquiry into railway company management, and |
|
|
now the proverbial hit the fan. |

years Hudson had been manipulating accounts, misappropriating shares and
falsifying |
|
|
balance
sheets. One example of his bare-faced dishonesty was shown in his purchase by
|
|
|
the York and North Midland Company of a much
smaller rival rail system. To get his hands on |
|
|
this
system, Hudson paid £35,000, but he charged the York and North Midland
Company |
|
|
quite a few thousand pounds more and pocketed
the difference. It is estimated that Hudson |
|
|
made £75,000 from deals of this nature. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In
a transaction concerning the York, Newcastle and Berwick Company, the inquiry
found |
|
|
that
a price well above the market rate was paid for the acquisition of 3,790
shares in |
|
|
another company. Co-incidentally, Hudson owned
2,800 of these shares. Then there was |
|
|
the
entry in the Western Counties Company's ledgers marked 'expenses' - a
bottomless |
|
|
financial well used by Hudson to extract
thousands of pounds a year. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Another matter that came to light concerned the
amalgamation of two companies. Hudson |
|
|
had
increased the authorised issue of shares from 42,000 to 56,000, but did not
show this in |
|
|
the
company's accounts. Hudson, it was revealed, had owned 9,956 out of the
14,000 |
|
|
increase,
netting him a profit of £145,000. There seemed to be no limit to Hudson's |
|
|
|
scheming.
He even used his knowledge of proposed rail routes to feather his nest. For |
|
|
instance,
when he learned, by virtue of being a director of a company, where the
company |
|
|
intended
running its next rail system, he would buy up the land and re-sell it via
dummy |
|
|
companies
to his own company at huge profit. Of Hudson, it was said that 'he believed
in |
|
|
feeding the donkey with bits of its own tail, a
policy that served him well so long as any tail |
|
|
was left.' |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When,
in August 1848, banks had demanded repayment of £400,000 lent to one of his |
|
|
companies, he simply paid the money from
capital just raised from a new and separate |
|
|
company flotation. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As a result of these disclosures, railway
shareholders demanded a special meeting at which |
|
|
Hudson was thrown off the boards of the Eastern
Counties, the Midland, York and North |
|
|
Midland and the York, Newcastle and Berwick
companies. The good voters of Sunderland, |
|
|
however, recognised that Hudson had brought
prosperity to their town and kept returning |
|
|
him to Parliament. This was greatly to Hudson's
advantage, since as long as he remained in |
|
|
Parliament
he was immune from arrest for debt - but only while the House was in session.
|
|
|
To solve the problem of holding off creditors
while the House was in recess, he made a habit |
|
|
of leaving for Paris the day before the House
rose. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In 1859 he lost his seat and fled at once to
France where, according to one biographer, 'he |
|
|
wandered to and fro between Paris and the
Channel Ports living in cheap hotels and steadily |
|
|
growing
shabbier and poorer.' When the 1865 elections were called, he returned to |
|
|
|
Sunderland
to try his luck once more, but was arrested for debt 48 hours before the
poll, |
|
|
thus
making him ineligible for election. After three months' in prison, he
declared himself |
|
|
bankrupt,
thus finally getting rid of his creditors. During his last years, he survived
on a |
|
|
small
annuity paid out of a trust that some friends had established for him, until
his death |
|
|
in late 1871. |

David Ochterlony Dyce Sombre, MP for Sudbury
1841-1842 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As
far as I am aware, Sombre was the first member of a racial minority in
England to be |
|
|
elected to the House of Commons. He was born in
Sardhana in 1808, at a time when |
|
|
|
Sardhana was a semi-autonomous state near
Meerut, about 55 miles north-east of New |
|
|
Delhi. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
His father was of mixed Scottish and Indian
ancestry, while his mother was of mixed |
|
|
|
French and Indian ancestry. Sombre's name at
birth was David Ochterlony Dyce, the |
|
|
|
additional name of Sombre being added in 1835. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The ruler of Sardhana at the time was his
maternal great-grandfather's second wife, Begum |
|
|
Sombre. She was the only Catholic ruler in
India and therefore raised him in that religion. |
|
|
David was entrusted with the management of the
state and was granted large |
|
|
|
amounts of cash and estates. When the Begum
died at the age of 90 in 1836, the East |
|
|
India
Company seized Sardhana and confiscated all the accoutrements of its army. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Sombre left Sardhana later in 1836 and
eventually reached England in June 1838. Through |
|
|
his friendship with Stapleton Cotton, Viscount
Combermere, he soon entered society, where |
|
|
his
wealth made him a very eligible bachelor. In 1840, he married Mary Anne
Jervis, |
|
|
|
daughter of the 2nd Viscount St. Vincent. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
At the general election in 1841, Sombre
contributed £3,000 towards the Radical-Liberal |
|
|
campaign in the seat of Sudbury and succeeded
in being elected, together with Frederick |
|
|
Villiers. In April 1842, however, following a
commission of inquiry, the election was declared |
|
|
to be void due to 'gross, systematic and
extensive bribery.' In 1844, Sudbury became the |
|
|
first seat following the Reform Act of 1832 to
be disenfranchised because of its electoral |
|
|
malpractices. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Around this time, and perhaps because of his
electoral misadventure, Sombre's behaviour |
|
|
became increasingly erratic; he made frequent
challenges to duels, none of which was ever |
|
|
accepted, and also accused his wife of adultery
with her friends and servants and of incest |
|
|
with
her father. Eventually, in August 1843, he was found by a special jury to be
of |
|
|
|
unsound mind. He was allowed to remain at
large, accompanied by a doctor, but in |
|
|
|
September 1843, he fled to Paris, where a panel
of French doctors declared him to be of |
|
|
perfectly sound mind. As a result, he
successfully resisted English efforts to extradite him |
|
|
back to London. He began a series of legal
appeals to overturn the lunacy judgment and to |
|
|
regain control over his fortune, which had been
seized by the Lord Chancellor. He was |
|
|
allowed to return to England several times
during the 1840s to undergo mental examination |
|
|
in an attempt to prove himself sane, but on
each occasion the court-appointed doctors |
|
|
confirmed the original verdict of lunacy. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Sombre later published "Refutation of the
charge of lunacy, brought against him in the Court |
|
|
of Chancery" [Paris 1849] which runs to
nearly 600 pages. In 1851, while engaged in yet |
|
|
another attempt to prove his sanity, he died.
In his will, he left most of his estate to |
|
|
|
establish a school for Indians in Sardhana, but
in January 1856, his widow successfully |
|
|
challenged
the will on the grounds of his declared insanity and was granted the |
|
|
|
administration of the estate. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
After the East India Company had seized
Sardhana and its army's accoutrements in 1836, |
|
|
Sombre had commenced a series of law suits to
recover the confiscated items. This case |
|
|
dragged on and on until May 1872, when it was
finally decided by the Judicial Committee of |
|
|
the Privy Council. The following [edited]
report on the judgment of the Judicial Committee |
|
|
appeared in 'The Leeds Mercury' of 13 May
1872:- |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'The
Dyce-Sombre Case: General Forester M.P. v The Government of India [Sombre's
widow |
|
|
had
remarried in 1862 George Cecil Weld-Forester, later 3rd Baron Forester - he
was |
|
|
|
claiming on behalf of his wife]. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'There
were two appeals in this case - one called the "Badshapore Suit,"
relating to |
|
|
|
property
in India [i.e. the seizure of Sardhana]…...and another called the "Arms
Suit," to |
|
|
recover
from the Government of India the value of arms and military stores which they
had |
|
|
seized…...[i.e. the accoutrements of the
Sardhana army]. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'The
result of the appeals is that in the Badshapore suit the title of the
appellants was not |
|
|
held to have been established, and the valuable
property will remain in possession of the |
|
|
Government; while, as to the "Arms
suit," the value of the stores etc, with twelve per cent |
|
|
interest, is to be paid to the appellant on an
agreed sum …..' [the agreed sum was around |
|
|
£60,000.] |

Charles Buxton, MP for Surrey East 1865-1871 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Buxton was the victim of an attack on his life
made by a servant in April 1870. The following |
|
|
report appeared in 'Jackson's Oxford Journal'
on 7 May 1870:- |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'A
desperate attempt to assassinate Mr. Charles Buxton, M.P. for West Surrey
[sic], was |
|
|
made
on Friday morning the 29th ult., at his residence in Grosvenor-crescent, Hyde
Park. |
|
|
Mr. Buxton for some years has had in his
service as secretary a young man named Arthur |
|
|
White, in whom he placed the most implicit
confidence. Latterly, however, White neglected |
|
|
his duties so much that Mr. Buxton felt
constrained to give him three months' notice to |
|
|
leave, and subsequently he had occasion to
reduce this time to one month. On Tuesday |
|
|
White attended in Grosvenor-crescent as usual,
but Mr. Buxton was called away, and White |
|
|
was desired to await his return. He did not do
so, however, and on Wednesday Mr. Buxton |
|
|
requested him to meet him yesterday morning at
9.30 as usual. Mr. Buxton reproved him |
|
|
slightly for not waiting his return on Tuesday,
and said that at any rate he might have sent |
|
|
him the
papers by post, and to this White made no reply. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Mr.
Buxton then rquested him to procure the Army List from another apartment, and
the |
|
|
man for some time remained apparently sullen,
but ultimately he made an impertinent |
|
|
|
observation, and in consequence was told to
leave the house. He then said, "You want the |
|
|
Army List, do you?" and Mr. Buxton
replied, "Yes, go and get it." He then fetched the book, |
|
|
and as he went towards Mr. Buxton the latter
said, "Mr. White, why do you treat me so |
|
|
insolently? I have done all that I could to get
you another situation, and really I can hardly |
|
|
recommend any one to employ you." White
answered, "I don't believe a word of it," and, |
|
|
leaning on the
table, he scowled at Mr. Buxton. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Thinking
that the man merely intended to assault him, Mr. Buxton remained seated, and |
|
|
said.
"Why, you know I asked a gentleman to employ you, and have been looking
out in |
|
|
other directions," and White then returned
to his seat at a table. The conversation was |
|
|
continued for a minute or so, and then Mr.
Buxton desired him to leave, as he could not |
|
|
tolerate his conduct any longer. Mr. Buxton
went towards the door, and instantly he heard |
|
|
the report of a pistol. Starting round he saw
the man standing before him and pointing a |
|
|
revolver at his head. Believing that a second
shot was intended, the Hon. Gentleman threw |
|
|
himself down behind a table, upon which his
would-be assassin observed, "Are you wounded, |
|
|
sir?" Mr. Buxton rushed at the man for the
purpose of disturbing his aim, the revolver being |
|
|
still pointed towards him, when White rushed to
the door and ran into the hall, followed by |
|
|
his master. Before Mr. Buxton could secure him,
however, he had opened the street door, |
|
|
had entered a hansom cab, and had got clear
away. On searching the study, a bullet mark |
|
|
was
found embedded in the wall, immediately over the place where Mr. Buxton stood
when |
|
|
he was fired at, and the bullet itself was
found lying in the middle of the room. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'It
is believed that White, who is a young man of eccentric habits and suffering
from a |
|
|
pulmonary complaint, is labouring under a fit
of insanity. He has since been apprehended at |
|
|
the Maison Doré, in Paris, by an English
detective.' |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
White
was subsequently charged with "feloniously and maliciously shooting at
Charles |
|
|
Buxton, with intent to murder him." At his
trial in June 1870, the jury found that White was |
|
|
insane, and he was ordered to be detained
"during the Queen's pleasure." |
