T. Stamford Raffles

T. Stamford Raffles

From Memorials of Liverpool....second edition, revised, with additions.

Mr. Thomas Stamford Raffles, who had been Stipendiary Magistrate in Liverpool for thirty-one years, died on January 23rd, 1891. He had been called to the bar in 1841. The reputation of his genial and eloquent father, the Rev. Dr. Raffles, for many years minister of Great George Street Chapel, and the honour in which that popular preacher was held, secured a favourable reception to the son's appointment. Mr. Raffle's long tenure of office amid universal respect more than justified the anticipations formed by his friends. He was succeeded by Mr. William John Stewart, Barrister-at-Law.
