He joined the York militia at the outbreak of the rebellion of 1837-38, during which he fought in the skirmish at Gallows Hill, north of Toronto. James Edward Small nominated him for the judgeship of the newly created Simcoe, the largest jurisdiction in Upper Canada District. Appointed on Baldwin's recommendation at the age of 27 in January 1843, he became the youngest judge ever commissioned in the British empire to that time. Created a cmg in 1893 and knighted in 1905. In his 40 years on the bench and his 22 years in the Senate, Gowan exercised more influence over legislation and the lives of Canadians than most elected politicians Quoted from Desmond H. Brown, "GOWAN, Sir JAMES ROBERT," in Dictionary of Canadian Biography, vol. 13, University of Toronto/Université Laval, 2003Sir Edmund Walker Head: He was simultaneously Governor General of the Province of Canada and Lieutenant Governor of Canada West and Canada East (1854-1861) and formerly Lieutenant-Governor of New Brunswick (1847-1854).  He was the cousin of Sir Francis Bond Head. E.W. Head was elected governor of the reconfigured Hudson's Bay Company in 1863 after his return to England, which he held until his death. While Lieutenant-Governor of New Brunswick, Head authorized the creation of an engineering faculty at the University of New Brunswick. This was the first such programme in what would become Canada. In his honour, the buildings housing this faculty at UNB are called Head Hall. The city of Edmundston, New Brunswick was named after him. In the county of Renfrew, a township of Head was named in his honour.Andrew Russell, Assistant Commissioners of Crown Lands for the Province of Canada 18 July 1857, to 30 June 1867., Province of Canada, 1859, 3, Hardback. New. This book title derives from Henleys most famous poem Invictus, which has been used as the name of a Hollywood film and for the International Paralympic Games sport event created by Britains Prince Harry. The poems stanzas have been popularised by Winston Churchill, Aung San Suu Ky and President Obama, and used to literary effect by C S Lewis, Oscar Wilde and in Casablanca. But this fine short lyric has unfortunately overshadowed Henleys other considerable literary output. Henley was the archetypal Man of Letters -- a poet, reviewer, essayist, journalist, historian and newspaper hack. His friendships with Robert Louis Stevenson, J M Barrie, and Yeats places him at the centre of the Victorian literary milieu. As editor of the National Observer he published writers as diverse as Kipling, Shaw, Hardy and Wells. He promoted new forms of expression in literature and art, and was a close friend of Rodin and Degas. The book reproduces key essays which relate to Henleys thinking on poetry, poets and the writing process, as well as his early and late poetry (some only recently discovered and attributed), unpublished verses, ephemera appearing in manuscript archives and important unpublished (often anonymous) essays. A scholarly introduction and critical notes serve to explain the significance of his poetry, the provenance of the material, and provide a context for his literary work in relation to historical events. Henley is often referenced in literary criticism, but until now has not been subject to book-length critical review. John Howlett set outs the case for his significance as a poet and writer in the context of Henleys central role in the publishing direction of Victorian literature., 6<
