Lewis Adolph Henry Hotop {{post-nominals|country=NZL|JP|size=85%}} (born Ludwig Adolph Heinrich Hotop, {{circa}}1844 – 29 September 1922) was a New Zealand pharmacist, politician and Arbor Day advocate. He served as mayor of Queenstown on three separate occasions.

Biography

Hotop was born and educated in Saalfeld, Thuringia, Germany. He went to sea for about four years before settling in Queenstown, New Zealand in 1867. He initially worked for Hallenstein and Company, and later bought their pharmacy business on the corner of Rees and Ballarat Streets.[1][2]

He was naturalised in Australia in 1866 and in New Zealand in 1870.[3][4] By 1873 he was registered by the Otago provincial government as a vendor of poisons[5] and he purchased a newsagent business in Clyde later that year.[6] On 18 November 1873 he married Catherine Elizabeth Sproule, who was governess to the children of Bendix Hallenstein, at Hallenstein's home.[7][8]

In 1878 he was appointed manager of the Wakatipu Steam Navigation Company, providing passenger services on Lake Wakatipu.[9] He was also an agent for the Union Insurance Company[10] and manager of the Mount Earnslaw Quartz-mining Company.[11] Flooding in Queenstown in October 1878 saw extensive damage to businesses close to Lake Wakatipu and Hotop's chemist shop was one of the worst affected: flood waters in nearby Eichardt's Hotel were reported to be four feet (1.2 metres) deep.[12]

Hotop served as mayor of Queenstown from 1880 to 1881, from 1891 to 1894 and again from 1903 to 1906.[13]

In 1886, he was appointed a member of a committee seeking to establish a branch of the Otago School of Mines in Queenstown[14] and elected vice-president of the Lakes District Acclimatisation Society.[15] He played a prominent role in the introduction of trout to the district and maintained a private hatchery.[16][17][18] In 1887 he was appointed as a trustee and president of the Queenstown Athenaeum.[19][20] In 1889 he was appointed secretary of the Queenstown committee for the New Zealand and South Seas Exhibition[21] and also appointed the government meteorologist at the new weather station in Queenstown.[22][23] He was elected a director of the Great Northern Dredging Company in 1890.[24] In 1892 he was appointed as a coroner.[25] He also served as a trustee on the Wakatipu District Hospital Board[26] and secretary of the Queenstown branch of the Otago Expansion League.[27]

Hotop was a passionate tree planter and was largely responsible for plantings around the shores of Lake Wakatipu and town environs.[28][29] As a member of the Queenstown school committee, Hotop first moved the introduction of Arbor Day and the inaugural observance took place in Queenstown in 1890.[30] He was referred to as the "father of Arbour Day in New Zealand".[31][32] He also served on the committee of the Wakatipu Horticultural Society.[33]

Hotop was widowed by the death from cancer of his wife in 1895.[8][34] He was active in the Anglican church, serving as a vestryman, church warden and lay reader,[35] and attending the Dunedin diocesan synod in 1891.[36]

During World War I, questions were raised in Parliament about Hotop's and his family's loyalty by John Payne, a member of Parliament who was known for his strong anti-German sentiment. Hotop was defended by the government ministers of the day, who noted his naturalised status, his long and ongoing contributions to the Queenstown community and his family members' service in the New Zealand armed forces, including one severely wounded at Gallipoli.[4]

Hotop sold his dispensary in 1920.[37] He died two years later in Dunedin[28] and was buried at Andersons Bay Cemetery.[38]

Hotop's Rise, a walkway from Camp Street to Frankton Road in Queenstown, is named in his honour.
