Sir Horace Alfred Damer Seymour [nominated KCB 1902]
Had he survived to receive that honour, Seymour would have been created KCB in 1902. However, he died on 25 June, before he could be so created. The London Gazette of 16 September 1902 (issue 27474, page 5958) contains the following notice:-
Whitehall, September 15, 1902. The King has been pleased to ordain and declare that Elizabeth Seymour, widow of the late Horace Seymour, Esq., C.B., Deputy Master of the Mint, shall have, hold, and enjoy the same title, place, and precedence to which she would have been entitled had her husband survived to be invested with the Insignia of a Knight Commander of the Most Honourable Order of the Bath, His Majesty's pleasure in regard to this promotion in the said Order having been notified in June last.
Sir John Francis Sheehy [Kt Bach 1943]
Sir John was murdered by burglars who had broken into his home. The following report is from the London Daily Telegraph of 12 May 1949:-
Senior British and German police officers are making a widespread search of the province of Westphalia, in the British zone, for two unknown men concerned in the murder today of Sir John Sheehy, 59. Sir John was Assistant Financial Adviser to Gen. Sir Brian Robertson, the Military Governor.
German police said that shortly after 2 a.m. two burglars entered Sir John's home in the village of Vlotho, near Herford, by breaking a window. Telephone wires to the house were cut.
Hearing a noise Sir John and Lady Sheehy investigated. There was a struggle which ended in one of the burglars shooting Sir John in the chest with a revolver. He died later in his bed-room. Lady Sheehy was present when the shooting occurred.
As the men fled they locked the door to the servants' quarters and the front door. Outside, in front of the house, police found a British-made waterproof coat. There were footprints in the wet grass.
Lady Sheehy told the police that the man who fired the shot wore a leather jacket. She said he was not masked. Sir John's body was taken to the R.A.F. hospital mortuary at Rinteln, near Vlotho.
There is some doubt about the nationality of the wanted men. It is possible they were not Germans, but displaced persons, of whom there is still a considerable number living illegally in the British zone.
The police hunt for the perpetrators took a year before two of them were finally arrested, but a third suspect was arrested the previous December as reported by the Kalgoorlie Miner on 17 December 1949:-
A gold signet ring which belonged to Sir John Sheehy, the assistant British financial adviser, who was murdered in his home at Vlotho on May 12, was produced in court as an exhibit in a receiving charge against a 23-year-old German, Kurt Malinka.
Malinka was arrested by what the police describe as one chance in 1000. A policeman standing on a street corner stared at Malinka as he cycled by and to his surprise Malinka jumped off his bicycle and ran across open country. The policeman chased and caught him half an hour later. The ring was found on Malinka and was sent to London where Lady Sheehy identified it as having belonged to her murdered husband.
The result of the trial of the suspects was reported in The Times on 6 July 1950:-
The British High Court at Herford today found Peter Waehlen, a Silesian German, aged 24, guilty of the murder of Sir John Sheehy, assistant financial adviser to Sir Brian Robertson, then Military Governor, in his home at Vlotho on May 11, 1949, and sentenced him to death.
The accused was a member of a gang which broke into the house while Sir John and Lady Sheehy were asleep. Counsel for the prosecution described him as a ringleader.
Alfred Markowski, aged 30, was sentenced to 15 years' imprisonment for robbery with aggravated violence, and Kurt Malinka, his stepbrother, aged 24, to 10 years' imprisonment for aggravated theft. The trial was according to English law. Under German law capital punishment is not provided for. Waehlen was also sentenced to 20 years' for robbery and aggravated violence, which he will serve if the death sentence is not confirmed.
Waehlen's death sentence was commuted to life imprisonment in early September 1950.
Sir Arthur Frederick Sidgreaves [Kt Bach 1945]
After Sir Arthur had committed suicide by throwing himself in front of a Tube train, the resultant inquest was reported in the Derby Evening Telegraph on 18 June 1948:-
Evidence that Sir Arthur Sidgreaves, former managing director of Rolls-Royce, Ltd., was seen to hurl himself at an underground train at Green Park Station, London, was given at the resumed inquest on Sir Arthur at Westminster today.
George Collins, of Hounslow, the train driver, said that as he entered the platform he saw "a man, down on one knee, as an athlete taking off for a race … he hurled himself at the train."
The jury, after a retirement of 30 minutes, returned a verdict of "Suicide while the balance of his mind was disturbed through ill-health".
Train-driver Collins, in his evidence, said: "As I entered the station I saw a hat, coat and umbrella on the platform, and a man crouched in the middle of the platform down on one knee. He was between the wall and the platform edge and three to four feet from the tunnel mouth."
The Coroner: Did he look in your direction? - I did not see if he glanced towards the train at all.
"He then set and hurled himself at the train," said Mr. Collins, adding that he did not see anybody else nearby. Coroner: Was it a deliberate act? - In my estimation, yes. Did he appear to be ill? - No, sir. Are you quite satisfied that he was not pushed by anybody? - Yes.
Sir Arthur, who was 66, and spent his life the motor industry, lived at "Farsyde", Manor-road, Penn, Bucks. When the inquest was opened and adjourned a week ago, only formal evidence of identification and the cause of death - multiple injuries - was given.
Lady Sidgreaves, giving evidence to-day, said they had been living at Penn since her husband's retirement. They had returned from a six-months visit to Jamaica. His health was splendid while on holiday, but at Christmas he had a throat infection. He was in bed a couple of days and got up, but had to go to bed again. His illness started with a sore throat, accompanied by vomiting, and he had been under the care of a doctor.
"His health had steadily deteriorated since January, and he was sleeping badly. He had been taking sleeping tablets for it," said Lady Sidgreaves, who added that the only thing that seemed to depress her husband was that he could not get his passage to South Africa, where he hoped to go in September.
"The night before we left for London I was cooking in the kitchen and he reached up to get the pressure cooker down for me and clutched the cabinet. He swayed and I asked him what was the matter. He said "Everything went black for just a minute," said Lady Sidgreaves.
"I told him it was his liver and I would get some liver pills. Later I was playing the wireless and he held his head. I turned the wireless off and told him to take his capsules."
The Coroner: Did he have any other spells? - He would not tell me whether he had any other spells. He only had one attack in my presence.
Lady Sidgreaves said that Dr. Milner, who had been attending Sir Arthur, had advised him to see a specialist. He was in good health and the only thing wrong was a slight toxin poison which came from the teeth and he was due to see the specialist again on June 7.
They were travelling to the station in the morning and her husband said they would have to lay up the car as the radiator was leaking very badly. "He left the car at Beaconsfield Station and we went by train. The car was collected later, but there was nothing wrong with it," said Lady Sidgreaves, adding, "He evidently didn't feel safe on the road, but did not want to tell me. We travelled by Underground from Marylebone to Piccadilly and he left me to go to Green Park Station, as he was lunching at the Royal Aero Club," she continued. "He was perfectly normal and chatting on the tube. I thought he looked much better and brighter. In the train he complained of the heat and took off his coat, but I made him put in back on again. I arranged to meet him later to catch the 6.22 p.m. from Paddington. I was not worried about him. He had no worries at all. He had never said or done anything which made me think he might take his life."
Dr. Alexander Milner, of Grove-road, London, said that he had attended Sir Arthur professionally only in the last few months. Sir Arthur called him in on Good Friday because he had several attacks of vomiting, was feeling rotten and was not eating. He had an inflamed throat and was running a bit of a temperature.
Dr. Milner said that Sir Arthur knew that there was something definitely wrong with him. One of the reasons for sending him to see a specialist again was to see if there was any improvement in blood conditions. Sir Arthur was not actually depressed but was always very reserved with him. He saw Sir Arthur a week before, as the tonic he had had did not seem to be doing him much good and he prescribed some benzedrine to carry him on until he had seen the specialist. The doctor added that he had had a telephone conversation with Sir Arthur on June 4 when he said he was feeling much the same, and added that he would see the specialist before paying Dr. Milner another visit. Coroner: Were you anxious about him? - I was not anxious about him at all.
Dr. J. Taylor, pathologist, said that a man suffering from low blood pressure was likely to suffer from syncope attacks.
The Coroner told the jury that they had no doubt considered from the medical evidence that Sir Arthur was not a fit man. They had to consider whether his death was the result of one of his giddy attacks or a deliberate jump. If they could not make up their minds they would be doing their duty by returning an open verdict.
Sir Thomas Sidgreaves [Kt Bach 1874]
Sir Thomas committed suicide in December 1889, an act which appears to have been caused by financial worries brought about by speculation using moneys of which he was the trustee. Ironically, the foreman of the jury at the subsequent inquest, George Woodyatt Hastings, MP for Worcestershire East at that time, was convicted of the same crime a little over two years later, and was expelled from the House of Commons and sentenced to 5 years' imprisonment. The following report appeared in the Birmingham Daily Post on 24 December 1889:-
On Sunday morning Sir Thomas Sidgreaves, of Melton Lodge, Malvern, was found dead in his garden, having apparently shot himself. It appears that he rose at the usual hour, and when his letters came opened them, and was not seen again. The family being apprehensive, despatched a messenger to a friend's house, but Sir Thomas was not there. On returning, the manservant noticed that the deceased gentleman's revolver was missing from its place. A search was instituted in the house and grounds and eventually the body was discovered among some shrubs in the garden. Dr. Pike was sent for, but deceased was dead when he arrived. The bullet had entered just above the heart, and death had resulted from haemorrhage. No reason can be given for the commission of the act.
Deceased was the son of the late Mr. George Sidgreaves, of Preston, and was born in 1831. He was educated at Stoneyhurst, was admitted to the bar in 1857, and from 1871 until 1885 was chief justice of the Straits Settlement. In 1871 he married Barbara, daughter of the late Mr. George Young, of Saverley House, Staffordshire, by whom he had six children. He was created K[night] B[achelor] in 1874, in recognition of his services in the Straits Settlements. Sir Thomas, who was a magistrate for Worcestershire, was in receipt of a pension of £1,200 a year.
The inquest on the body of the deceased was held yesterday evening at his residence, Melton Grange, before Mr. W.S.P. Hughes, county coroner, and a jury, of which Mr. G.W. Hastings, M.P. was foreman. The Coroner expressed the pain and grief with which he presided over this enquiry into the death of a gentleman well known to all present, and expressed deep sympathy with Lady Sidgreaves and family at the trouble that had fallen upon them. - Charlotte Moore, housemaid, who had only been at Melton Grange a few days, deposed that on Sunday morning at a few minutes past nine, Sir Thomas came down the stairs and went hurriedly into the garden. She did not notice that he was in any way strange. - Mr. Thomas Fitzroy P. Fenwick, a visitor to Malvern, who was upon intimate terms with Sir Thomas, came on a visit at the deceased's special invitation on Saturday week. Deceased had private affairs, and was in great trouble. It was actual trouble, and not a delusion. In reply to Mr. Hastings, witness said a sum of £5,000 that had been referred to was trust money entrusted to Sir Thomas, but which he had no interest in. It was not stated what had been done with the money. Deceased had said he could not shake off his depression, that he was a ruined man, and afraid that his wife and family would be involved. Dr. Pike having given evidence, the jury privately consulted, and returned a verdict that "Deceased took his life while in a state of temporary insanity."
Sir Charles William Siemens [Kt Bach 1883]
The following biography of Sir William Siemens appeared in the December 1962 issue of the monthly Australian magazine Parade:-
A dozen members of the Siemens family assembled at a hotel in the Harz Mountains, Germany, for a reunion in the summer of 1850. It proved so enjoyable that another meeting was arranged for 1852. Thereafter the gathering became a biennial fixture, but the numbers increased so much that in time it became necessary to reserve the entire hotel. In the intervals of merrymaking, plans were discussed for aiding any members of the clan who had fallen on evil days. And the man chiefly responsible for these plans was Werner Siemens, who took over the care of seven brothers and two sisters when his parents died suddenly in 1839. Werner's success in business became legendary, while the two girls, Mathilde and Sophie, married brilliant scientists.
Of the eight Siemens brothers, only Otto remained obscure. Lacking the robust constitution of the rest, he died young. The others represented a formidable aggregation of talent. Hans and Frederick were great industrialists, with vast glass factories in Dresden and Stuttgart. Walter became a large-scale mine-owner in the Caucasus; Heinrich a business magnate with a finger in many international financial pies. Ferdinand, one of the first Germans to apply science to farming, was a leading agriculturist. Werner, after a short but brilliant career in a technical branch of the Prussian Army, resigned his commission to found a great electrical engineering enterprise. Most brilliant of them all, however, was the second son, Carl Wilhelm Siemens, who, as a naturalised British subject, became Sir William Siemens, and, next to Albert, the Prince Consort, the best-known German in England.
Although his influence on the industrial development on the 19th century was immense, William displayed little early promise. His mother, alarmed at his lack of concern for the future, frequently asked what was to become of him. His father, an eccentric Hanoverian farmer, whose principal interest was historical research, suggested finding him a job in a warehouse. All history, he claimed, proved that any numbskull could be a successful merchant. More practical advice came from the eldest son, Werner, then a young officer in the artillery. Believing that William had a mind akin to his own, he offered to take complete charge of the 15-year-old boy and supervise his education.
As this meant removing William to the barracks at Magdeburg, where Werner was stationed, Ferdinand protested, claiming that close contact with military officers would injure William's character. But the masterful Werner overcame his father's objections. Under his brother's watchful eye, William began the studies which were to make him one of the foremost engineers of his time. Although Ferdinand had announced that he had decided to live to at least 70 in order to provide for his family, he died at 53, leaving a library of unsaleable historical works and no money. Frau Siemens died soon afterwards, and the children were placed with various relatives. Most of the financial burden fell on Werner. To cope with the expense, he found a working partner and, using a process of his own invention, established a profitable electroplating business in Berlin. By 1843, William was no longer a liability. After preliminary studies at Magdeburg, he was admitted to the University of Gottingen, graduating in science and engineering at the age of 20.
During his laboratory work at the university, William so improved Werner's electroplating process that they decided to sell the rights in England. Sent on this mission, William arrived in London at the end of 1843, with little money and neither friends nor influence. It was also his first appearance in the role of salesman, but his knowledge of the English language was limited. His main assets were a pleasing personality and a dazzling array of university diplomas. Making his first call on Finsbury Pavement, he was soon at cross-purposes with the man, who thought the young German had come to arrange for a funeral, and couldn't make out where a new electrical method of gilding metals fitted into the picture.
In Birmingham, centre of the world's metal trade, he had better luck. He immediately sold the British rights of the process to Elgington & Co. for £1600, a large amount to a young man from a country where manufacturing was still in its infancy. Having sent his brother his share of the proceeds, William Siemens resolved to stay in the land of industrial opportunity. Although he wanted to set up practice as a consulting engineer, he soon realised he was being too ambitious. Clients failed to arrive. So, he spent several years working as a steam-engineer in the smog-shrouded mill towns of Lancashire. There he gained more practical knowledge of men and machinery than he could have picked up in a century at Gottingen. During this period, his English became so fluent that he lost most of his German accent and picked up the Lancashire dialect instead. Had Siemens been an Englishman this would have damned him socially, but it was merely regarded as an amusing foible in a German.
It was about then he produced his first invention, a new type of governor for steam engines. It was only moderately successful, but his next venture, a water meter, proved immensely valuable. Hailed by hydraulic engineers as the first practical instrument ever devised for measuring the flow of water, it was soon being installed by the thousand, and is still used in many countries. The success of the water meter encouraged Siemens to leave Lancashire and move to London. Setting up a factory in Woolwich, he experimented in many directions, devising improvements to air-pumps, condensers and gas-engines.
One of Siemens' most spectacular successes was his regenerative furnace, in which the superheated gases were used over and over again instead of being wasted. The idea came to him in Lancashire, where he had been struck by the amount of heat which escaped up the chimney stacks. Siemens' new furnace was so economical that a piece of wood could be placed in the flue and left for days without being charred.
Although they lived in different countries, Siemens' relations with his brother Werner remained on the old cordial basis and, until death intervened, they wrote to each other on alternate days. But this did not prevent them arguing fiercely whenever they met. Werner could never quite forget that he was the big brother, entitled to lay down the law. A discussion between them was liable to be alarming to anyone who did not know them, for it usually progressed from shouting abuse to throwing books and sometimes even smashing furniture. They made it a rule, however, to apologise profusely and shake hands at the end of each fierce conference.
During the 1840s, the development of the telegraph gave the brothers their big chance. Between them, they knew more about electricity than anyone else in Europe, and they were soon working in close co-operation. It was William who first suggested the use of gutta-percha as an insulating material, while Werner found a way of applying it to telegraph wires. By 1850, they were stringing wires all over Europe and part of Asia. Their biggest job was building the line from England to India which ran across Russia and Persia. This project was carried through despite the forebodings of pessimists who prophesied that the workmen would all be murdered and that there would be a body buried under every pole along the route. Actually, the principal casualties were the insulators, which provided the wild Circassians with excellent target practice.
In 1859, Carl Siemens married the daughter of a Scottish professor. On the day of the wedding he found time to become a naturalised British subject, remarking that if he had to vow allegiance to his bride, he might as well pay Queen Victoria the same compliment.
For years, he and Werner, their interests merged in the firm of Siemens Brothers, travelled the world, supervising the laying of cables in all sorts of places. Most of the equipment was manufactured in their factories in Berlin or Woolwich, while William also owned a big steelworks at Landore, in Wales. Also, his research work went on continuously, covering the whole field of science and its application to industry. The 113 patents which stood against his name included machinery and processes of every kind, from refrigeration to printing on calico.
In 1874, when the chartered cable-laying ship La Plata foundered during a storm in the English Channel, William Siemens suffered a blow from which he never fully recovered. As well as most of the ship's company, every member of the Siemens cable-laying staff was lost. Stunned by a disaster which had robbed him of 58 valued colleagues, Siemens resolved never again to rely on chartered vessels. He designed a cable ship of a totally new type, the 5000-ton Faraday, built like an outsize whaleboat and fitted with two enormous bilge keels or stabilisers to prevent rolling. One of the first twin-screw essels to take the water, the Faraday had a long life, and among her more important assignments was the laying of the first direct cable between England and the United States.
But the work for which Siemens is best remembered was done with the dynamo. Until the 1870s, the only means of generating electricity was by Volta's tremendously expensive primary batteries, or by Faraday's magneto. Neither method had many uses outside the laboratory. Then, the first Siemens dynamo appeared, setting up a new milestone in the history of power. Until then, the electric light had been an academic curiosity, but the dynamo, with its enormous output of cheap current, soon made it an everyday necessity. Five years later, Siemens dynamos were installed in the lighthouse at the Lizard, and in 1879 the Prince of Wales officially started the dynamos in the Royal Albert Hall, London, the first electrically-lit place of entertainment in the world.
Knighted in 1883, William Siemens did not live long to enjoy his honours. He died suddenly a few months later, at the age of 60. The firm of Siemens Brothers remained an international concern until the outbreak of World War I. Since then, the English end has been as British as the brilliant German who founded it.
Sir Henry Lunnon Simpson [Kt Bach 1887]
Sir Henry was found drowned in the Thames at Datchet, near Windsor, in August 1900. The following report on the subsequent inquest appeared in the London Standard of 20 August 1900:-
On Saturday, the Coroner for South Bucks (Mr. G.A. Charsley) held an inquiry at Datchet-on-Thames, on the body of Sir Henry Lunnon Simpson, veterinary surgeon to the Queen and to the Royal Buckhounds, and Past President of the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons, who was found drowned in the Thames at Datchet.
Mr. James Fergusson Simpson, brother of the deceased, said Sir Henry was 58 years of age, and was living at South Lea Farm, Datchet. He last saw him alive on Sunday week, when he spent part of the afternoon and evening with him, and he showed him round his newly-acquired house.
The Coroner - Has he suffered from any illness of any kind? - He was a gouty subject.
Was he medically attended? - He usually consulted a London physician. He has also at times remarked about the action of his heart accompanied by occasional dizziness.
Have you ever known him to have a fit of giddiness and become insensible? - No.
Or fainting fit? - No. He has told me that he has had that feeling at times. The banks of the river are very steep in places, and just where he was found the turf bank is very steep. At the present season, at the foot of this bank, there is a shelving, pebbly beach.
Is there any deep water there? - It commences very shallow, and I should think you would require to go out ten or twelve feet into the river before you would get four or five feet depth of water.
Then would a person have to walk across this beach to get to deep water? - Yes, to get to the water at all, according to the height of the water and the stream.
Did you notice whether there were any marks on the bank of slipping or struggling? - No, I did not. The banks just now are very dry, harsh, and slippery, and I do not think any marks would have been there. I should judge that the body was in four or five feet of water.
Had he ever threatened his life in any way? - Never.
Was anything pressing on his mind in any way? - Nothing whatever that I know of, and I was always his confidant. On the previous evening he confirmed all the arrangements that had been made for him and his family to accompany Witness and his family with a launch party from Maidenhead, in celebration of the twenty-first birthday of a mutual friend, and on the morning of the accident he arranged with Lady Simpson to be back at nine o'clock to start on this pleasure trip. It was a favourite practice of his to walk down by the weir. He had ideas of developing the river-side.
The Coroner - In your own mind, you have no suspicion of suicide? - No, absolutely none.
Police-constable Brigginshaw, of the Bucks Police, produced Sir Henry's gold watch, which had stopped at twenty-seven minutes past eight, his memorandum book, and a bundle of letters, in which was a communication from his son as to his marriage.
The Coroner - He was not upset about the marriage? Mr. Durant - No: it was really a long engagement. He left his own house at Windsor so that his son should go and live there.
Dr. Norris said he found some scratches on Sir Henry's right hand and the left side of his forehead. They were superficial, and there were no marks of violence otherwise. He should think he probably had a fainting fit, and fell into the water. The actual cause of death was suffocation by drowning following on syncope.
The Jury returned a verdict of Accidentally Drowned, and expressed their sympathy with Lady Simpson and family.
Sir John Skelton [nominated KCB 1897]
John Skelton's name was included in the Diamond Jubilee Honours List published in the London Gazette on 25 June 1897 (issue 26867, page 3567). However, he died on 19 July of that year, before he could be invested. Subsequently, the London Gazette of 15 March 1898 (issue 26948, page 1713) contained the following notice:-
Whitehall, March 11, 1893. The Queen has been pleased to ordain and declare that Anne Adair Skelton, widow of the late John Skelton, Esq., C.B., Vice-President of the Local Government Board for Scotland, shall have, hold, and enjoy the same style, title, place, and precedence to which she would have been entitled had her husband survived to be invested with the Insignia of a Knight Commander of the Most Honourable Order of the Bath, Her Majesty's pleasure in regard to this promotion in the said Order having been notified in the Supplement to the London Gazette of Friday, the 25th of June last.
Sir Charles Perrin Skerrett [KCMG 1927]
Having had both of his legs amputated, Sir Charles died while on a voyage to England to obtain artificial limbs. The report of his death that appeared in The Times of 18 February 1929 reads:-
Sir Charles Skerrett, Chief Justice of New Zealand, died at sea on Friday while on his way to England in the liner Port Denison. He will be deeply mourned throughout the Dominion, where he was one of the best known and most popular figures: he was a great sportsman as well as a singularly able lawyer, and was for more than 20 years the unquestioned leader of the New Zealand Bar. He was a man of remarkable nerve and determined will, for, although last May he suffered the amputation of one leg, and last October the other leg had to be taken off, he had no intention of resigning his office. He had only just recovered from the second operation when he sailed for England, accompanied by his sister. Miss Mary Skerrett. His body is being brought to England for burial.
Sir Charles Perrin Skerrett was sworn in as Chief Justice of New Zealand on February 1, 1926, being promoted directly from the Bar on the resignation of Sir Robert Stout, who had been Chief Justice for more than a quarter of a century. The son of Mr. Peter Perrin Skerrett, he was born in India on September 2, 1863, and went to New Zealand as a youth. He was admitted to the Bar in 1885, and built up a large practice, being especially noted for his quick and clear apprehension of all the points in a case. But, though he worked hard, he kept himself in condition by his devotion to sport. He was fond of leaving civilization and camping out in the mountains of the back country, where he would fish and shoot and stalk deer, whose haunts he knew familiarly.
He was one of the first group to take silk when King's Counsel were first appointed in New Zealand in 1907, and for many years before his elevation to the Bench, which was warmly approved both by the profession and by the public, he had been the undoubted leader of the Bar. A brilliant, fearless, and courteous advocate, he always remembered that the Bench and Bar of England set that high standard of conduct which it was in the interests of a young country to maintain inviolate. No one recognised more clearly than he did the value to a community of an incorruptible Judiciary and a fearless and high-principled Bar. Success did not spoil him. Always modest and unassuming, and exceedingly kind-hearted, he won the affection as well as the respect of all who knew him. As Chief Justice he had already given ample proof that he was well qualified to lead those responsible for the dispensing of justice in the Dominion. His quick intellect, his wide and accurate knowledge of the law, and his attractive personality specially fitted him for the performance of the responsible duties of his office.
In 1918 Skerrett was elected president of the New Zealand Law Society, and he had also served as president of the Welfare League and the Licensing Reform Association of the Dominion. In 1927 he was created K.C.M.G., and in September of that year he and Mr. Justice MacCormick, Judge of the Dominion Native Land Court, were appointed Commissioners to inquire into the administration of the mandated territory of Western Samoa. The Chief Justice was unmarried.
Sir James Parr, High Commissioner for New Zealand, stated on Saturday that the late Chief Justice was, in his judgment, the most talented and certainly the most experienced counsel that the Dominion had produced. He combined a remarkable soundness and accuracy in the law with an unusual skill, force, and eloquence in placing his cases before judges and juries. He was also a great sportsman. As a fisherman and as a shot there were few his equal. He took no part in Dominion politics, but was the stoutest of Imperialists in his outlook upon the Empire.
Sir Archibald Levin Smith [Kt Bach 1883]
Sir Archibald's obituary, which appeared in the Nottingham Evening Post of 21 October 1901, reads:-
We regret to announce that Sir Archibald Levin Smith died last night (only two days after his retirement from the Mastership of the Rolls was gazetted), at Wester Elchies House, Aberlour, Morayshire, the residence of his son-in-law, Mr Grant, where he had been lying seriously ill for some time. He was born in 1836, son of the later Mr Francis Smith, J.P., of Salt Hill, Chichester, and during his career at Trinity College, Cambridge, was distinguished as a cricketer, and also rowed three times in the boat race with Oxford. When the Cambridge boat sank [during the 1859 race] he was at No. 3 thwart, and was the only cause of anxiety, because it was known that he could not swim. He was called to the Bar in 1860 from the Inner Temple, and joined the Home Circuit. He "devilled" for the Attorney-General from 1878 until April, 1883, when he was appointed a Judge of the Queen's Bench Division. He was one of the three judges appointed in 1888 to hold the Parnell inquiry; of these, Sir James Hannen predeceased him, and Sir J.C. Day retired on Friday. He was at a late date appointed chairman of the Historical MSS Commission. In 1892 he was promoted to the Court of Appeal as a Lord Justice, and in 1900 became Master of the Rolls when Sir Richard Webster [later Viscount Alverstone] succeeded Lord Russell of Killowen as Lord Chief Justice of England. As Master of the Rolls he followed the traditions established by Sir George Jessel in being impatient in the waste of time, and bringing common sense and a remarkably keen insight to bear upon the cases before him. He was a very popular judge with the counsel practising before him. In 1867 he married Isabel, eldest daughter of Mr John Charles Fletcher, D.L., of Dale Park, Arundel. Lady Smith, who had been in indifferent health for some years, was found drowned in the Spey on August 27th last. The shock prostrated the judge, who was at the time indisposed, and he never recovered from the serious illness that ensued.
Further details of the death of Lady Smith, whose death undoubtedly led to that of her husband, can be found in this report which appeared in the Sheffield Daily Telegraph on 28 August 1901:-
The Press Association's Elgin correspondent telegraphs that Lady Smith, wife of Sir Archibald Smith, Master of the Rolls, was drowned in the River Spey at Aberlour, Morayshire, on Monday evening, under very sad circumstances.
The deceased lady, who had been in a weak state for some time, was sitting with her husband on the banks of the Spey, in the vicinity of Wester Elchies House, the mansion belonging to the estate of their son-in-law, Mr J.W.H. Grant, and two maids were also in attendance. The latter eventually left, and during their absence the Judge, becoming drowsy, fell asleep.
It is supposed that Lady Smith then rose from her husband's side, and in some way became immersed in the deep pool of the river known as Pulshuan, for a boy who was in the vicinity saw deceased floating in the water. He immediately ran to the ferryman at the boathouse, who succeeded in getting the body ashore opposite Aberlour Station. Life, however, was extinct.
Sir Archibald's obituary also fails to mention that he suffered from a pituitary disorder which led to acromegaly. This caused him to grow to a height of 7 feet, and made him possibly the tallest ever member of the British legal profession.
Sir Howard Handley Spicer [KBE 1918]
Sir Howard shot himself after he became worried about the state of his health. The report below of the inquest into his death appeared in the Yeovil Western Daily Press on 21 August 1926:-
"Three months of insomnia and worry have affected my brain and I have felt that it might go at any moment, and that I might do harm to others or become a hopeless mental wreck." This was a passage from a pathetic letter addressed to the Westminster Coroner by Sir Howard Spicer, vice-chairman and joint managing director of Messrs. Spicers, Ltd., the paper manufacturers, who was found shot dead in a room at Garland's Hotel, Suffolk Street, Pall Mall, later on Monday night.
The letter, which was read at the inquest yesterday, continued:- "My dear mother had the same feeling, and my sister ended her life. I hope it will not be necessary to call my family after this letter. My dear friend, Eugene Doutre, knows that I have confided to him that I felt my brain going. He cheered me by complimenting me on my work. He will give good evidence."
A verdict of "Suicide whilst of unsound mind" was recorded.
Mr. Norman Spicer, a brother, of Hanover House, Regent's Park, said that Sir Howard was fifty-five years of age and lived at Elltree Road, St. John's Wood. Recently Sir Harold had had two or three attacks of influenza which had left him in a very depressed state so that he was worrying very much about his health. He had one of these attacks about two months ago and another four months ago. The Coroner: Had he been suffering from sleeplessness? - I think he had, a little bit. He speaks about a sister. Have you lost one? - Yes. How did she die? - She committed suicide. How long ago was that? - About three years ago.
The next witness was Eugene Doutre of 233, Lauderdale Mansions, Maida Vale, who said that he had been acting as assistant to Sir Howard Spicer. Lately witness noticed that Sir Howard suffered from fits of depression, but he seemed to recover from them very quickly. Sir Howard was upset about his health, but witness knew that there was nothing organically wrong with him. This depression seemed to become more acute right up to the time of his death. The Coroner: What was it he worried about in his health? - Generally. He had an idea, which was an illusion, that his heart was not strong. Had he ever threatened to take his life? - Never.
George Merryweather, a porter at Garland's Hotel, said he saw him there on Monday morning. Later in the day he was called by Lady Spicer because the door of the Directors' room was locked. He forced an entrance and found Sir Howard lying on the floor. A gun was lying across a chair. A police constable said there was a double barrelled gun lying across a chair with the butt broken. Two empty green cartridge cases were also lying on the chair.
The Coroner's Officer said that in the course of a search at the hotel, he found four letters on the table of the directors' room. One was addressed to the Coroner and the other three to members of the family, including Lady Spicer.
The Coroner said this was a very sad case of a gentleman who had been worrying about his health and suffering apparently from post-influenzal depression and insomnia.
Sir Lee Oliver Fitzmaurice Stack [KBE 1918 and GBE 1923]
Sir Lee Stack, Governor General of the Sudan, was assassinated while been driven through the streets of Cairo in 1924. The North China Herald reported on 22 November 1924:-
Cairo, Nov. 19. - An attempt was made this afternoon to assassinate the Sirdar, Major-General Sir Lee Stack. Two bombs were thrown at him when he was driving from the Ministry of War. One of the bombs exploded but Sir Lee Stack was not injured - Reuter.
Later - A bulletin says that Major-General Sir Lee Stack is suffering from shock and three bullet wounds in the stomach, hand and foot. His condition is serious.
Sir Lee Stack's aide-de-camp, Captain Campbell, of the Black Watch, was hit in the chest and the chauffeur in the arm and leg.
The Prime Minister, Zaghlul Pasha, and the Cabinet Ministers called at the Residency and expressed profound shock and sorrow. A deputation from the Chamber of Deputies expressed similar sentiments. Zaghlul Pasha was obviously very affected.
Three or four of the assailants, who escaped when the bomb thrown at the Sirdar did not explode, fired several rounds from revolvers, hitting Sir Lee, his aide-de-camp and chauffeur, and a policeman. The Sirdar was badly wounded in the stomach and was taken to hospital.
The Sirdar was going home when the assailants, who were secreted in the doorway of the Stores Department of the Ministry of Education, threw a bomb, which hit the motor car but did not explode and fell into the gutter. The assailants then followed the car, firing continually.
The frightened occupants of a passing tramcar took shelter by lying down. One of the assailants crossed the road and reloaded his revolver from a magazine handed to him by a man standing on the pavement. A policeman who pursued him was hit three times and seriously injured.
The assailants entered a taxi-cab waiting in a side street. Two Englishmen on a motorcycle and sidecar slowed down for the purpose of taking the number of the taxi-cab, whereupon a man jumped out from the taxi-cab and fired repeatedly at the motor-cyclists but missed them. The taxi-cab sped off.
Later - The operation on the Sirdar has been successful. His condition is as good as can be expected. The bullet was found lodged under the lung. The stomach was full of blood but the intestines were not perforated.
Cairo, Nov. 20. - The Sirdar's condition is very grave. Haemorrhage is affecting the digestion, causing sickness, but the doctors do not abandon hope. The next 24 hours will probably be decisive.
Stack died just before midnight on 19 November. Nine men were subsequently arrested and charged with the assassination. All were convicted on 2 June 1925, with eight men being later sentenced to death. One of the assassins' sentences was commuted to life imprisonment, and the remaining seven were hanged on 23 August 1925.
Sir Thomas Ernest Stanton [Kt Bach 1928]
Sir Thomas committed suicide in August 1931, as reported in The Scotsman of 1 September 1931:-
A verdict of "Suicide while of unsound mind" was returned at the inquest at Pevensey Bay yesterday on Sir Thomas Stanton (65), the consulting engineer. The inquest was held in the tiny holiday bungalow to which Sir Thomas and Lady Stanton and their children came on August 5.
Lady Stanton said that following a preliminary operation, her husband was ordered to the seaside. He was depressed, but had never threatened to take his life. He was not in the habit of sleep-walking or of walking on the beach at night. In consequence of sleeplessness he had been taking drugs, and had been sleeping fairly well. On Saturday night he took a sleeping draught, and she saw him in bed at 10 o'clock.
Dr A. Roberts, of Eastbourne, said that he had been attending Sir Thomas for the past three weeks. Sir Thomas had undergone the preliminary operation for prostate, and was to undergo a further operation. He was depressed, not so much at the prospect of the operation, but in consequence of the fact that he knew he would be unfit for a long time. He had never in the doctor's presence made any remark which suggested that he would take his own life.
David Holter, a labourer, said that he found the body of Sir Thomas a short distance from the bungalow and below high water mark early on Sunday morning. It was dressed in pyjamas, a dressing gown, socks, and shoes. He thought anyone having fallen down the beach at the spot and cried out would have been heard.
The Coroner said he was of opinion that Sir Thomas wandered out of the house under the influence of sleeping drugs, and that he had committed the act himself, but was at the time of unsound mind. Turning to Lady Stanton, he said, "It is a terrible tragedy, and I hope you will agree with the verdict. It is a terrible verdict, but it may be some consolation to you to know he was having a wretched time, and might have had a more wretched time in the future."
Sir Charles Napier Sturt [nominated KCMG, but not invested]
Charles Sturt is remembered in Australia as one of the greatest of the early explorers of the interior of the continent. A large number of Australian places and institutions have been named in his honour - for example the Sturt Highway, an electoral division for the House of Representatives, Sturt University, Sturt's Desert Pea (the floral emblem of South Australia) and many others.
He was about to be created a KCMG, but died before this could happen. In the London Gazette (issue 23639, page 3597) is a notice dated 1 August 1870 which states that:-
Captain Charles Sturt, late of the 39th Regiment, and formerly Colonial Secretary of the Colony of South Australia, had been designated for the dignity of a Knight Commander of the Most Distinguished Order of St. Michael and St. George, but the appointment was not proceeded with in consequence of his death.
Nevertheless, a further notice in the Gazette (issue 23641, page 3687) a few days later and dated 5 August 1870 reads:-
The Queen has been pleased to ordain and declare that Charlotte Christiana Sturt, Widow of Captain Charles Sturt, late of the 39th Regiment, and formerly Colonial Secretary of the Colony of South Australia, shall have, hold, and enjoy the same style, title, place, and precedence to which she would have been entitled, had her said Husband survived and been appointed a Knight Commander of the Most Distinguished Order of St. Michael and St. George and had been invested with the Insignia of that dignity for which honour he had been designated, as notified in the London Gazette of the 2nd instant, but which appointment was not proceeded with in consequence of his death.
Sir Hassan Suhrawardy [Kt Bach 1932]
Before reading this note, I would refer the prospective reader to the note relating to Sir Francis Stanley Jackson, which note should be read before this one …
The Daily Mail of 17 February 1932 reported that:-
A knighthood is to be conferred on Dr. Hassan Suhrawardy, whose promptitude probably saved the life of Sir Stanley Jackson, Governor of Bengal, when a girl fired five shots at Sir Stanley at Calcutta University last Saturday week.
Sir Stanley was presiding, as chancellor, at the annual university convocation when Bina Das, a student at the Diocesan College, drew a revolver and fired. Dr. Suhrawardy, the vice-chancellor, rushed forward and seized the girl, diverting her aim. Sir Stanley was not hit, but Dr. Dineschandra Sen, a professor, was slightly wounded.
It was announced last night that the King has approved the conferring of a knighthood on Dr. Suhrawardy, who is a lieutenant-colonel, and has served as a medical officer on the Indian State Railways, and in other posts.
