His political views were, however, more complex, as between the two elections he had contested at several places, "professing any political creed that might happen to favour his success". Indeed, while he contested Canterbury as a Radical at a by-election in 1854,[5][6] when he contested Beverley again in 1857, he stood as a Conservative despite losing the support of the local party. He then held the seat for just a few months.[7][1][8][9][10] Glover was, in August 1857, unseated after an Election Petition Committee found that he did not meet the required property qualification–owning property worth £300 a year for a borough seat–at the time of his election, meaning he was not entitled to be elected an MP. However, he had previously declared he met the qualification requirements—these properties he had no interest in. [1][8][9][10] After his case was referred to the Attorney-General, Glover was arrested on 23 December 1857, and he was later found guilty, by the Old Bailey of making a false declaration regarding this qualification. In April 1858, he was sentenced to four months in Newgate Prison, and transferred to the Queen's Bench Prison.[11] The property qualification was later that year abolished.[1][8][9][10] Glover again contested the seat at the 1859 general election, as an independent candidate, but was unsuccessful, ending votes last in the poll.[7][12] References1. ^1 2 3 {{Rayment-hc|b|3|date=April 2018}} 2. ^{{cite web|title=Edward Auchmuty Glover|url=http://www.thepeerage.com/p18436.htm#i184359|website=The Peerage|accessdate=9 April 2018}} 3. ^{{cite web|title=Pedigree of Glover of Mount Glover (now Mount Corbett)|url=http://www.corkpastandpresent.ie/places/northcorkcounty/grovewhitenotes/monanimyparishtoshandrum/gw4_114_129.pdf|website=Cork Past and Present|accessdate=9 April 2018}} 4. ^{{cite news|title=Beverley|url=https://newspaperarchive.com/morning-chronicle-jul-07-1852-p-20/|accessdate=9 April 2018|work=The Morning Chronicle|date=7 July 1852|page=20}} 5. ^{{cite news|title=The elections for the five delinquent and suspended boroughs|url=http://archive.spectator.co.uk/article/19th-august-1854/3/the-elections-for-the-five-delinquent-and-suspende|accessdate=9 April 2018|work=The Spectator|date=19 August 1854|page=3}} 6. ^{{cite news|title=The Forthcoming Elections|url=https://www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk/viewer/bl/0000366/18540819/015/0003|accessdate=22 April 2018|work=Newcastle Guardian and Tyne Mercury|date=19 August 1854|page=3|via = British Newspaper Archive|subscription=yes}} 7. ^1 {{cite book|editor1-last=Craig|editor1-first=F.
