Frederick Niddrie

Niddrie ran for a seat to the Alberta Legislature in the by-election held on November 16, 1950. He defeated Liberal candidate M. Winther to hold the Olds electoral district for Social Credit.^[2]

Less than two years later, Niddrie ran for re-election in the 1952 Alberta general election. He faced a straight fight against Liberal candidate Edward Miller and won his second term easily.^[3] Niddrie was re-elected for his third and final term in the 1955 Alberta general election. His margin of victory dropped against Liberal candidate A. Boyce, but he still won easily.^[4]

Niddrie died on December 19, 1958, as a result of complications from a ruptured appendix that he had been hospitalized with approximately two weeks prior. He was buried in Olds, Alberta.^[1]
