Thomas Garfit
Thomas Garfit (1815 – 29 May 1883)[1] was a British Conservative Party politician.
He was elected as a Member of Parliament (MP) for the borough of Boston in Lincolnshire at an unopposed by-election in August 1878,[2] after the resignation of the Conservative MP John Wingfield Malcolm.[3] Garfit was re-elected at the 1880 general election,[4] but an election petition was lodged against the result, and the election was declared void on 3 August 1880.[1] The writ was suspended, and a royal commission was established to investigate elections in the borough.[2]
