George Knox Anderson JP (1854 – 19 March 1941) was briefly the Conservative Member of Parliament (MP) for Canterbury. ==Career== In April 1912, he was appointed a deputy lieutenant of Kent. He was also a Justice of the peace for North Aylesford. Professionally, he was the Director of the Associated Portland Cement Manufacturers, Ltd. Anderson was elected unopposed in August 1918 to succeed Francis Bennett-Goldney, who was killed in a motoring accident while in France a month prior. Anderson was seen a temporary replacement until the following General Election, as he was approved by the two feuding Conservative groups in Cambridge. He retired at the dissolution three months later, becoming one of the shortest serving MPs on record. He never made a speech or asked a question, although he voted in 12 divisions. For more than twenty years he was Honorary Treasurer of Canterbury Diocesan Board of Finance.〔 He was also involved in the church in a variety of roles, including as a lay reader, Church Councillor and a Churchwarden.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「George Knox Anderson」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
