Kessell died at the Lewisham Private Hospital,[2] New South Wales, and his funeral proceeded from the Ashfield Methodist Church to the Field of Mars Cemetery.[3] Public lifeKessell, representing the Ministerialists, contested the seat of Port Curtis at the 1912 state election but lost by two votes to Edward Breslin.[4] The election of Breslin was later declared null and void by Justice Charles Chubb, the elections judge of the Queensland Supreme Court[5] and Kessell won the resulting by-election in October 1912.[4] At the 1915 state election he lost the seat to George Carter.[6] He was president of the Australian Provincial Press Association and president of the Queensland Country Press Association.[1] References1. ^1 2 {{cite web|title=Former Members|publisher=Parliament of Queensland|year=2015| url=http://www.parliament.qld.gov.au/members/former/bio?id=500138367|accessdate=17 April 2016}} {{s-start}}{{s-par|au-qld}}{{s-bef|before= Edward Breslin}}{{s-ttl |title= Member for Port Curtis|years=1912–1915}}{{s-aft|after=George Carter}}{{s-end}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Kessell, John Henry}}2. ^{{cite news |url=http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article17024681 |title=Family Notices |newspaper=The Sydney Morning Herald |issue=29,913 |location=New South Wales, Australia |date=16 November 1933 |accessdate=17 April 2016 |page=10 |via=National Library of Australia}} 3. ^{{cite news |url=http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article17024638 |title=Family Notices |newspaper=The Sydney Morning Herald |issue=29,913 |location=New South Wales, Australia |date=16 November 1933 |accessdate=17 April 2016 |page=9 |via=National Library of Australia}} 4. ^1 {{cite news |url=http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article19856312 |title=KESSELL LEADING. |newspaper=The Brisbane Courier |issue=17,096 |location=Queensland, Australia |date=28 October 1912 |accessdate=17 April 2016 |page=7 |via=National Library of Australia}} 5. ^Port Curtis Election Petition — Hansard.
