1923 Prime Minister's Resignation Honours

British government recognitions

The 1923 Prime Minister's Resignation Honours were a set of honours gazetted on 25 May 1923,[1] five days after Bonar Law's resignation as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. At the time Bonar Law was seriously ill with cancer of the throat, and his honours list included two physicians who were involved in his care: Sir Thomas Horder and Dr Gould May.[2]

Not to be confused with 1923 Prime Minister Honours.

The honours list was comparatively short; in addition to the above two physicians there were just four recipients: his private secretary, his parliamentary private secretary and his two principal private secretaries.
