John Savile, 4th Earl of Mexborough : ウィキペディア英語版 | John Savile, 4th Earl of Mexborough John Charles George Savile, 4th Earl of Mexborough (4 June 1810 – 17 August 1899), styled Viscount Pollington between 1830 and 1860, was a British peer and Tory politician. He impressed his friends enough to be twice fictionalised, and at his death he was the last surviving person to have been a member of the House of Commons before the passing of the Reform Act. ==Background== Savile was the son of John Savile, 3rd Earl of Mexborough, and Lady Anne, daughter of Philip Yorke, 3rd Earl of Hardwicke.〔(thepeerage.com )〕 At Eton between 1821 and 1826, he was renowned for his abilities in the classics, and also enjoyed boxing; Savile was said to have entertained contemporaries at one boxing match by "strutting around the ring, spouting Homer" between rounds.〔W. Tuckwell, "Alexander Kinglake", p. 10, quoted in "Savile, John Charles George", ''History of Parliament 1820-1832'' ed. D.R. Fisher, Cambridge University Press, 2009.〕 From there he went to Trinity College, Cambridge in 1827-8.
