Taunton by-election, 1724 edit

  • ... that when two winners were declared for the 1724 Taunton by-election, the High Sheriff of Somerset had to choose which to accept?

  • Article is newly created and the QPQ has been completed. It meets the minimum size for DYK and is fully referenced. Some of those cites are behind a paywall - but I have access, so they were included in copy vio spotchecks, none of which were an issue. The hook is interesting and unusual, and again directly cited. Good to go. Miyagawa (talk) 11:06, 8 March 2015 (UTC)
