Oxford. He was the only son of Moreton Walhouse of Hatherton, See also:Stafford-See also:shire; but in 1812, in accordance with the will of his See also:great-See also:uncle See also:Sir See also:Edward Littleton, See also:Bart. (d. 1812), he took the name of Littleton. From 1812 to 1832 he was member of See also:parliament for See also:Staffordshire and from 1832 to 1835 for the See also:southern See also:division of that See also:county, being specially prominent in the See also:House of See also:Commons as an See also:advocate of See also:Roman See also:Catholic emancipation. In See also:January 1833, against his own wish, he was put forward by the Radicals as a See also:candidate for the See also:- OFFICE (from Lat. officium, " duty," " service," a shortened form of opifacium, from facere, " to do," and either the stem of opes, " wealth," " aid," or opus, " work ")
office of See also:speaker, but he was not elected and in May 1833 he became See also:chief secretary to the See also:lord-See also:lieutenant of See also:Ireland in the See also:ministry of See also:Earl See also:Grey. His duties in this capacity brought him frequently into conflict with O'Connell, but he was obviously unequal to the great Irishman, although he told his colleagues to " leave me to See also:manage See also:Dan." He had to See also:deal with the vexed and difficult question of the Irish See also:tithes on which the See also:government was divided, and with his colleagues had to See also:face the problem of a new See also:coercion See also:act. Rather hastily he made a compact with O'Connell on the See also:assumption that the new act could not contain certain clauses which were See also:part of the old act. The clauses, however, were inserted; O'Connell charged Littleton with deception; and in See also:July 1834 Grey, Althorp (afterwards Earl See also:Spencer) and the Irish secretary resigned. The two latter were induced to serve under the new premier, Lord See also:Melbourne, and they remained in office until Melbourne was dismissed in See also:November 1834. In 1835 Littleton was created Baron Hatherton, and he died at his Staffordshire See also:residence, Teddesley See also:- HALL
