Summary/Abstract: The election of Deputy Senators in the years 1935–1939 was carried out by the provincial electoral college on the same day and according to the same principles that applied to the choice of Senators. The Deputies took the Senator’s seat when it became vacant during the term of the Senate. The institution of the Deputy Senator was a very interesting solution allowing to avoid the need to organise supplementary elections to the Senate. Between 1935 and 1939, 125 persons exercised the function of Deputy Senator, including such well-known figures of public life as Wanda Norwid-Neugebauerowa and General Stanisław Taczak.
