text_original: At the general election of 1734 William Pitt's elder brother Thomas was elected for two constituencies, Okehampton and Old Sarum. When Par  liament met, and the double return was made known to it, Thomas Pitt decided on taking his seat for Okehamp  ton, and William Pitt was elected to serve in Parliament for Old Sarum. He soon began to be conspicuous among the young men — the "boy brigade," who cheered and supported Pulteney.
