A. J. E. Cockburn, Esq. LL.B. M.P. for Southampton; Solicitor-General for England, 1850. Creator: Unknown

A. J. E. Cockburn, Esq. LL.B. M.P. for Southampton; Solicitor-General for England, 1850. Portrait from a photograph, by Kilburn. Sir Alexander James Edmund Cockburn made a speech during...the debate of May 3, 1849, on the second reading of the Bill to permit Marriages with the Sister of a deceased Wife. He contended that in the whole range of Scripture there was no prohibition of such marriages'. He served as...counsel for the plaintiff in the famous Bainbridge v. Bainbridge case. The verdict was for the client of the honourable member, whose statement was a strange and varied story of a perverted life, which the Times has characterised as scarcely inferior in romantic interest and incident to Godwin's "Caleb Williams." The honourable member is unmarried'. From "Illustrated London News", 1850
