In 1881, Dudley Marjoribanks, MP, was elevated to the peerage as Baron Tweedmouth.
At the 26 October Berwick-upon-Tweed 1881 by-election, Hubert Jerningham defeated Henry Trotter by a then record margin, despite attacks on Jerningham for supporting the right of atheist Charles Bradlaugh, who had won in Northampton at the 1880 general election, to sit in Parliament.
