Description
English: Mr Justice Gresson and family. Henry Barnes Gresson (1809-1901), an Irish lawyer, emigrated at 45, losing his possessions, including a then rare and substantial collection of law books, on the Sumner bar. He was, from 1857-1875, Canterbury's Supreme Court judge. He resigned when the Bench considered its independence was being hampered by the possibility of the Government moving judges to different localities as it chose.
