British businessman and Liberal politician Thomas Challis ( 1 July 1794 - 20 August 1874 ) was a British businessman and Liberal Party politician who held office as a Member of Parliament and as Lord Mayor of London . Born in the City of London , he was a hide merchant with business premises in the Bermondsey area of south London , and also was a skin broker in Finsbury . Challis was elected an alderman for Cripplegate Ward in 1844 , an office he held until his death aged 80 , when he was the senior member of the court of aldermen of the City of London . In 1846-47 he held the office of Sheriff of London and Middlesex and was Lord Mayor of London in 1856-57 . A member of the Worshipful Company of Butchers , he was master of the company in 1839 . In June 1852 a general election was called and a group of 500 electors in the Clerkenwell area presented a petition to Challis requesting that he stand for election to parliament for the constituency of Finsbury . He consented to become a candidate , declaring that if elected he would " exercise his own judgement , and , opposing all class legislation , he should make truth the basis of his conduct , and the happiness of the people his object . " There were three candidates for the two-seat constituency , and Challis was elected along with his fellow Liberal , Thomas Slingsby Duncombe . He served a single term , standing down at the next general election in 1857 . On Michaelmas Day 1852 Challis was elected by the Corporation of London as Lord Mayor of London . He took office on 9 November , although the traditional Lord Mayor 's Show was not held as the City was preparing to hold the state funeral of the Duke of Wellington . He died at his country home in Enfield , Middlesex , and was buried at Enfield Chase Cemetery . |
