The recount did not change the result and Hunter retained the seat.[3]

In 1935, Linklater was awarded the King George V Silver Jubilee Medal.[4] He was appointed an Officer of the Order of the British Empire for services in connection with the supervision of disabled servicemen's farms in the 1949 New Year Honours.[5]
