He had unwisely neglected his pro- fession to dabble in municipal and imperial politics. He had spent his money on a newspaper which failed. He was known to Mr. Bright through Mr. 148 AN EDITOR'S RETROSPECT chap. Duncan M'Laren, on whose side he had been in municipal and other matters ; and Mr. Bright intro- duced him to the Star. If he could have subordin- ated secondary considerations to those of first importance, he would have been a successful man. Being what he was, he seemed to be doomed ...to eventual failure. Through Mr. Bright's influence he was appointed Attorney- General of Mauritius. In a short time he was promoted to a puisne judgeship there. Then he was promoted to be Chief- Justice of Fiji, where he did splendid work in connection with the settlement of the land question. After- wards he went as Chief- Justice to Trinidad, and was subsequently removed to another post in the West Indies. There some dispute arose ; a commission of inquiry was ordered, and I believe it reported against Gorrie, who had long before been made Sir John Gorrie.
