Lord Mayor of London Davies in 1895 . Lieutenant Colonel Sir Horatio David Davies KCMG ( 1842-18 September 1912 ) was a London businessman , politician , magistrate and a driving force behind the establishment of Pimm 's as an international brandname . Early life Son of H. D. Davies Esq , he was educated as a poor scholar at Edward Alleyn 's original ' College of God 's Gift in Dulwich ' , founded in 1619 . The school was always known colloquially as ' Dulwich College ' , and the original buildings where Davies was taught are now The Old College and Almshouses in Dulwich Village . Alleyn 's charitable foundation was renamed Alleyn 's College of God 's Gift in 1857 ( when Davies was aged around 15 ) , and was split into Upper and Lower schools . The Upper School moved into new premises in 1870 ( formally becoming Dulwich College in 1882 ) , with the Lower School remaining in the old buildings until 1887 when it moved into its new ( and current ) premises , becoming Alleyn 's School . Horatio maintained that , as a small boy , he had seen the bones of the founder of Dulwich College , Edward Alleyn , when his tomb was moved . After completing his education at Dulwich College he was apprenticed as an engraver for seven years , but relinquished the career because it did not seem to afford a wide enough field to his activity and ambition . His later career was both of a political and business nature . He was said to have been in his enterprises loyal to his old friends but he disliked the intrusion of newcomers . He was for many year an officer of the 3rd Middlesex Artillery Volunteers , and retired with the rank of an honorary Lieutenant Colonel with the Volunteer Decoration . Business career Restaurateur In the early 1870s Horatio Davies took interests with his wife 's brother , Frederick Gordon , in restaurants for businessmen . They started with the ' London Tavern ' and ' Pimm 's Oyster Bar ' , the ' Holborn Restaurant ' and Crosby Hall , Bishopsgate , followed with much success . Crosby Hall , the old palace of Richard III dates from 1466 . It is one of the City 's oldest buildings and the only surviving medieval merchant house in the City of London . It was turned into a restaurant by Frederick Gordon & Co. in 1868 . The previous tenants for seven years had been H. R. Williams , wine merchants , who stored imported wine in the crypt and vault . In 1871 the whole of the property was put up for auction by the Freeman family , descendants of William Freeman , a sugar merchant born on St. Kitts in 1656 who had bought the freehold in 1692 . Although much of the estate was sold , including houses in Bishopsgate Street , Crosby Square and Great St . Helen 's , the hall was bought in at £22,500 , and sold privately to the current tenants Messrs . Gordon & Co . for about £37,000 . It was elaborately restored to plans by the architects F. and H. Francis . Following these ventures , Gordon went on to found the Gordon Hotels Group . Horatio was also noted as owning the ' Ship and Turtle ' in Leadenhall Street . He later sold Crosby Hall - one of the City 's most ancient buildings , which had previously been saved a number of times from destruction , in April 1907 to the Chartered Bank of India , Australia , and China to make way for a new bank building . Its impending demolition aroused a huge protest from individuals and the papers . The building was finally dismantled in 1910 and rebuilt in Cheyne Walk , Chelsea . Pimm 's Pimm 's cup James Pimm , a shellfishmonger with premises in Poultry , London had invented the Pimms beverage as an aid to digesting the oysters his business was selling . In 1880 , Davies purchased the business from Frederick Sawyer who had owned it since 1865 , and a chain of Pimm 's Oyster Houses was franchised in 1887 . The brand was expanded as Davies started the process of bottling the ' Number One Cup ' for other establishments to sell . He also expanded the chain to five Pimm 's restaurants . Gradually , an export business was built up , so that by the time of Sir Horatio 's death in 1912 , Pimm 's cocktail was known internationally , especially in the British Empire . Political career Horatio was actively involved in the law , and in local and national politics . He was an Alderman in London . His first connection with the Court of Common Council was his election as representative of the Ward of Cheap in 1885 . Four years later he became a member of the Court of Aldermen for Bishopsgate , and was soon chosen to serve as Sheriff of London and Middlesexin 1887 . His name appears as an Alderman on a plaque commemorating the opening of Tower Bridge in 1894 . He was Master of the Worshipful Company of Loriners , Master of the Worshipful Company of Spectacle Makers in 1897 , the same year as he served as Lord Mayor of London . His old school in the form of the Dulwich College Rifle Volunteer Corps ( a forerunner of the present day CCF ) , took part in his Lord Mayor 's Show in 1897 . He was said to have entertained more lavishly than any other occupant of the Mansion House . 1897 was also the year of Queen Victoria Golden Jubilee , and he welcomed the Queen to the City of London as part of the celebrations . He was knighted at the close of his mayoralty as a KCMG. His first attempt to enter Parliament was for Rochester as a Tory in 1889 , but Edward Knatchbull-Hugessen defeated him . The Rochester by-election was caused by the resignation of the Conservative Francis Hughes-Hallett after a scandal . 1892 general election Standing again for Rochester he topped the poll and was returned as an MP in the July 1892 general election , only to be unseated after an electoral petition in December that year . The election was declared void , and a by-election was held in 1893 , with Viscount Cranborne being returned unopposed . The election petition had been brought on Election fraud bribery charges , including treating of electors and irregular election expenses . Maidstone , just down the road , had been plagued by " electoral squalor " for centuries , like eg Yarmouth , Bodmin and Worcester . The judges were Sir Lewis Cave and Roland Vaughan Williams , the uncle of the composer Ralph Vaughan Williams . According to the judgement : Payments by Davies to his Conservative constituency association were supposed to cover registration expenses , but no accounts were produced to prove it . The association held a conversazione with food and drink provided at nominal price to the attendees ; the costs were not returned as election expenses . Coming to the alleged treating at the conversaziones his lordship said that those who had the management , of it went considerably beyond what Alderman Davies intended , and what was advertised . It was obvious the refreshments could not be supplied for the sum charged , and this amounted to corrupt treating . He was unable to come to the conclusion , however , that Alderman Davies knew of it at the time or assented to it . The Constitutional Association , which organised the conversazione , however , were agents of Alderman Davies , and he must bear the responsibility of their illegal acts . His lordship spoke in terms of deprecation of the smoking concerts and the ' Birth Night Club ' festivities in connection with politics , and went on to say that in this case the object was to influence voters . The financial affairs of the Constitutional Association were conducted in a very lax way , which was calculated to give rise to suspicion , for there was a considerable sum unaccounted for . He acquitted Alderman Davies of any corrupt intent . He held on to his seat for Chatham from 1895 to 1906 as a member of the Conservative Party . He was returned unopposed in the 1900 general election , but lost in the 1906 election to John Jenkins , one of 29 MPs of the Labour Representation Committee , the predecessor of the Labour Party . Later life and death In 1898 he was also a magistrate for Kent and one of Her Majesty 's Lieutenants for London . As a magistrate he was regarded as just , but severe to wrong-doers , while tender-hearted for cases of distress . He was made an Officer of the Legion of Honour . He was knighted as a Knight Commander of the Order of St Michael and St George ( KCMG ) in 1898 . He was much travelled , and had recently returned from a trip to South Africa before his death at Watcombe Hall , Torquay , Devon on 18 September 1912 . Watcombe Hall is a large stuccoed villa on the south-east side of Watcombe Park , created by I . K . Brunel out of farmland purchased between 1847 and 1858 . The estate , comprising 500 acres ( 208 ha ) , was sold in 1876 to a Nottingham banker and MP , Colonel Charles Ichabod Wright . Personal life Colwick Hall , which Davies owned for a short while In 1867 he married Lizzie , the sister of his business partner Frederick Gordon ( and the daughter of Charles John Gordon ) . After her death in 1907 he married Pauline Marie Boniface in 1909 . He bought the estate of Colwick Hall , Nottinghamshire in 1888 , ending the Musters family 's 238 years of ownership . Davies held Colwick Hall and the lower part of the Park area for a short time only before selling it to a leisure and sporting syndicate which laid out a course for horse racing , opening it to the public in 1892 . The hall and racecourse were later purchased by Nottingham City Council , and the hall became a public house . Wateringbury Place which Davies bought in 1890 He bought Wateringbury Place , near Maidstone , Kent in 1890 for £20,000 . He was an art lover and a discriminating purchaser of pictures , and filled the house with famous works of art . One of these was Glaucus and Scylla , one of a pair of tondos by Turner , purchased after 1883 for about £570 . He sold it in 1901 . He also owned a large collection of antique silverware including porringers of the time of " William the Dutchman , " antique goblets , vinaigrettes , and the like " in almost endless profusion " . He also owned a solid gold bowl once the property of King Thibaw Min , and an extensive assortment of rings , Oriental fetishes and other graven golden images and knick knacks . Davies was an Officer of the Légion d'honneur and a leading Freemason . He was a member of both the Carlton Club and the Junior Carlton Club . |
