1889 Govan by-election

The 1889 Govan by-election was a parliamentary by-election held on 18 January 1889 for the British House of Commons, in the Govan constituency, located in Lanarkshire, Scotland.

The seat became vacant following the death of the Conservative Party Member of Parliament (MP) Sir William Pearce, who died at the age of 55 on 18 December 1888. A major shipbuilder and owner of the Fairfield Shipbuilding and Engineering Company, Pearce had held the seat since its creation for the 1885 general election.

Candidates

The Conservatives did not field a candidate, and the seat was contested only by the Liberal Party candidate, John Wilson, and John Pender of the Liberal Unionists. Pender had previously served as a Liberal MP for Totnes in Devon and later for Wick Burghs.

Result

The result was a victory for Wilson, who held the seat until he stepped down at the 1900 general election. Pender returned to Parliament three years later, when he regained his Wick Burghs seat at the 1892 general election.
