Following that, he returned to New Zealand, where he was admitted in 1872. He married Eleanor Blanche Mary Lewis in Auckland on 4 November 1882. He represented the Auckland electorate of Eden from 1876 general election (held on 6 January) until 1887. Following the 1884 general election, he became Minister of Justice in the Stout–Vogel Ministry. In the 1887 election, when he contested the Newton electorate, the two other candidates were Edward Withy (a political novice who, after early retirement from business, had emigrated with his large family to Auckland in 1884) and Henry Thomas Garrett. Tole and Garrett were liberal politicians, whilst Withy was a conservative. The liberal vote was split, and Tole, Withy and Garrett received 606, 701 and 170 votes, respectively, with Withy thus elected. In 1893, he became Crown Prosecutor at Auckland and remained in that role until his death. He was among the inaugural New Zealand King's Counsel appointed in 1907. He had been ill for four months and was improving, but he died at his home in Remuera from heart failure on 13 December 1920. (en)
