Richard Seaward Cantrell (1825 – 11 August 1872) was a 19th-century Member of Parliament from Dunedin , New Zealand.
Cantrell was born in England in 1825. He arrived in Dunedin in 1858 and took over the Commercial Hotel in December of that year.[1] [2]
Cantrell was one of four candidates in the 1866 election in the Caversham electorate, coming second but being decisively beaten by Arthur John Burns .[3] [4] Burns resigned after four years but Cantrell did not stand in the resulting 1870 Caversham by-election .[5] The by-election was won by James McIndoe [6] and at the 1871 election , Cantrell defeated McIndoe.[7] On 27 March 1871, Cantrell was one of five candidates for the Otago Provincial Council , also for the Caversham electorate. He comfortably won this election.[8]
Cantrell represented the (parliamentary) Caversham electorate until 1872, when he resigned due to ill health. He sent his resignation from Dunedin by mail on 1 August[9] and while the resignation was read out by the speaker on 6 August,[10] it took effect on 31 July (i.e. the day prior to sending it; presumably the date shown on the letter).[11] He had also resigned from the provincial council,[12] but as the council was out of session (the 30th session had finished on 31 May), the resignation could not be processed and his representation ended with his death.[13]
At the provincial council, three candidates contested the resulting by-election on 15 August: Robert Stout (149 votes), Henry Fish (110 votes), and Richard Henry Leary (90 votes), with Stout thus elected.[14] Cantrell's parliamentary resignation caused the 1872 Caversham by-election , which was held on 28 August and won by William Tolmie .[15] Cantrell did not live to see either by-election; he died on 11 August aged 47 years.[16] As captain of a volunteer unit (South District Rifles), he received a military funeral.[17] He was survived by a family of six sons and two daughters.[18]
