The new House of Commons: Mr. Arthur Mills, M.P. for Exeter, 1874. Engraving from a photograph by Owen Angel. 'Mr. Arthur Mills, of Budehaven, Cornwall, who has been returned for the city of Exeter, in the Conservative interest, is the youngest son of the late Rev. Francis Mills, of Barford, Warwickshire, by Catherine, daughter of the late Sir John Mordaunt, of Walton, in the same county. He was born in the year 1816, and was educated at Rugby, and at Balliol College, Oxford, where he took the usual degrees. He was called to the Bar at the Inner Temple in Easter Term, 1842, and is the author of "Colonial Constitutions" and of "India in 1848." He is married to Agnes Lucy, youngest daughter of the late Sir Thomas Dyke Acland, M.P., of Killerton, Devon. Mr. Mills is a member of the London School Board for Marylebone and Hampstead. He represented Taunton as a Conservative from 1857 to 1865. He was an unsuccessful candidate for Taunton in 1868; and it will be remembered that he was returned for the city of Exeter a few weeks before the dissolution in the place of Sir J. D. Coleridge; but, as he never took his seat in the late House of Commons, he may fairly be included in the list of new members'. From "Illustrated London News", 1874.
