Notes: Hall was MLA for Gunnedah 1901-04 and MHR for Werriwa 1906-12, when he resigned and was appointed to the Legislative Council, holding the portfolios of Justice and Solicitor-General to take some of the workload off Holman. (Rydon, Spann and Nelson) Almost defeated on the first ballot, Hall was elected thanks to a higher turnout at the second ballot.
