Acting Colonial Secretary in 1849 until June 1850, he then went back to England and returned to Victoria and was resident director of the Port Philip and Colonial Gold Mining Co. in Melbourne and director of the National Bank between 1863 and 1865.rnrnProvenance: Collection 'Fremantle', Prestige, Melbourne, 11 July 2008, lot 693.Ausruf : 1.000 CHFZuschlag : 1.000 CHFLosnr. : 40427 Western Australia
