# Dictionary of National Biography, 1901 supplement/Hankey, Thomson

​HANKEY, THOMSON (1805–1893), politician and political economist, born in May 1805, was eldest son of Thomson Hankey (d. 1857), by his wife Martha, daughter of Benjamin Harrison. He was descended from Sir John Barnard [q. v.]; in 1855 he reprinted for private circulation, with a preface by himself, the 'Memoirs' of Barnard, which had first appeared in 1820.
Hankey was admitted into his father's firm of Thomson Hankey & Co., West India merchants, and ultimately became senior partner. He was elected a director of the Bank of England in 1835, and served as governor in 1851-2. In 1853 he was returned in the liberal interest to parliament for the city of Peterborough, and sat continuously until 1868. He was then beaten by a local candidate, but represented it again from 1874 to 1880, when he was once more defeated. During these years he had fought six contested elections. In the House of Commons he spoke frequently, and with independence of thought, on financial subjects. After the commercial panic of 1866 he criticised the constitution and action of the Bank of England. From April 1855 to July 1877 he was a member of the Political Economy Club. He collected a special library of tracts on financial topics, and at the close of his life gave many to the library of the City Liberal Club (Catalogue, 1890, pp. 111-14; Supplement, 1894, p. 55), and others to the library of the Bank of England. He studied the works of the leading French writers on political economy, and corresponded with them on his favourite points.
Hankey died at 59 Portland Place, London, on 13 Jan. 1893, and was buried in the churchyard of Shipbourne, near Tonbridge, Kent, a tablet being placed in the church in his memory. He married, on 4 Feb. 1831, Appoline Agatha Alexander, daughter of William Alexander and half-sister of Sir William Alexander, the chief baron. She died at 59 Portland Place, London, on 8 July 1888, and was also buried in Shipbourne churchyard.
In 1858 Hankey delivered at the Mechanics' Institution of Peterborough a lecture on 'Banking, its Utility and Economy.' This was printed, with an addition 'respecting the working and management of the Bank of England,' for private circulation only, in 1860. It was published in 1873, and a fourth edition, expanded and revised as regards the bank by Clifford Wigram, came ​out in 1887. His other works were: 1. 'Remarks on the Production of the Precious Metals,' by Leon Faucher. Translated by Thomson Hankey, jun., 1852. 2. 'Maria Theresa, the Empress Queen,' a lecture, 1859. 3. 'Taxes and Expenditure,' a lecture, 1864. 4. 'Suggestions for improving the Management of Public Business in the House of Commons,' 1876: referring mostly to proceedings on government bills in committee. 5. 'On Bi-Metallism,' 1879. 6. 'Irish Grievances,' 1881 and 1888: in favour of the abolition of the office of lord-lieutenant and the cheapening of private bill legislation. 7. 'London Dinners,' 1883: a bright little paper, which had previously appeared in 'Macmillan's Magazine,' March 1872, pp. 370-5.

# United States v. Wong You/Opinion of the Court

* Court Documents
* Case Syllabus
* Opinion of the Court
United States Supreme Court
223 U.S. 67
United States v. Wong You
Argued: January 12, 1912. --- Decided: January 22, 1912
This is a writ of habeas corpus. It was dismissed by the district court (176 Fed 933), but was sustained by the circuit court of appeals, which ordered the parties concerned to be discharged from custody. 104 C. C. A. 535, 181 Fed. 313. The parties are Chinamen who entered the United States surreptitiously, in a manner prohibited by the immigration act of February 20, 1907, chap. 1134, § 36, 34 Stat. at L. 898, 908, U.S.C.omp. Stat. Supp. 1909, pp. 447, 466, and the rules made in pursuance of the same, if applicable to Chinese. They were arrested in transitu and ordered by the Secretary of Commerce and Labor to be deported. §§ 20, 21. But as it transpired in the evidence that they were laborers, the circuit court of appeals held that they could be dealt with only under the Chinese exclusion acts of earlier date. Those acts make it unlawful for any Chinese laborer to come from any foreign place into the United States, or, having so come, to remain there, and provide a different procedure for removing them. Hence it was concluded that such persons were tacitly excepted from the general provisions of the immigration act, although broad enough to include them, and although of later date.
We are of opinion that the circuit court of appeals made a mistaken use of its principles of interpretation. By the language of the act any alien that enters the country unlawfully may be summarily deported by order of the Secretary of Commerce and Labor at any time within three years. It seems to us unwarranted to except the Chinese from this liability because there is an earlier more cumbrous proceeding which this partially overlaps. The existence of the earlier laws only indicates the special solicitude of the government to limit the entrance of Chinese. It is the very reverse of a reason for denying to the government a better remedy against them alone of all the world, now that one has been created in general terms. To allow the immigration act its literal effect does not repeal, alter, or amend the laws relating to the Chinese, as it is provided that it shall not, in § 43. The present act does not contain the clause found in the previous immigration act of March 3, 1893 [27 Stat. at L. 569, chap. 206, U.S.C.omp. Stat. 1901, p. 1300], that it shall not apply to Chinese persons, and, on the other hand, as it requires deportation to the trans-Pacific ports from which such aliens embarked for the United States (§ 35), it is rather hard to say that it has not the Chinese specially in mind.
Judgment reversed.

# Weary

Weary of the ceaseless war
 Beating down the baffled soul, —
Thoughts that like a scimitar
 Smite us fainting at the goal.
  Weary of the joys that pain —  Dead sea fruits whose ashes fall,
Drying up the summer’s rain—
 Charnel dust in cups of gall!
  Weary of the hopes that fail,
 Leading from the narrow way, Tempting strength to actions frail —
 Hand to err, and foot to stray.
  Weary of the battling throng,
 False and true in mingled fight;
Weary of the wail of wrong,  And the yearning for the night!
  Weary, weary, weary Heart!
 Lacerated, crush’d and dumb.
None to know thee as thou art!
 When will rest unbroken come?

* published non-government works whose author died before January 1, 1955,
* anonymous or pseudonymous works and photographs published before January 1, 1955, and
* government works published more than 50 years ago (before January 1, 1974).
This work is also in the public domain in the United States because it was first published outside the United States (and not published in the U.S. within 30 days), and it was first published before 1989 without complying with U.S. copyright formalities (renewal and/or copyright notice) and it was in the public domain in Australia on the URAA date (January 1, 1996). This is the combined effect of Australia having joined the Berne Convention in 1928, and of 17 USC 104A with its critical date of January 1, 1996.
Because the Australian copyright term in 1996 was 50 years, the critical date for copyright in the United States under the URAA is January 1, 1946.
This work may be in the public domain in countries and areas with longer native copyright terms that apply the rule of the shorter term to foreign works.

# Weary of Wandering from My God

Weary of Wandering from my God, And now made willing to return, I hear, and bow me to the Rod, For Him, not without Hope, I mourn: I have an Advocate above, A Friend before the Throne of Love.
O Jesu, full of Pardning Grace, More full of Grace than I of Sin, Yet once again I seek thy Face. Open thine Arms and take me in, And freely my Backslidings heal, And love the faithless Sinner still.
Thou knowst the Way to bring me back, My fallen Spirit to restore; O for thy Truth and Mercy Sake, Forgive, and bid me sin no more, The Ruins of my Soul repair, And make my Heart an House of Prayer.
The Stone to Flesh again convert, The Veil of Sin again remove, Drop thy warm Blood upon my Heart, And melt it with thy dying Love: This Rebel Heart by Love subdue, And make it soft, and make it new.
Give to mine Eyes refreshing Tears, And kindle my Relentings Now, Fill all my Soul with filial Fears, To thy sweet Yoke my spirit bow, Bend by thy Grace, O bend, or break The Iron Sinew in my Neck.
Ah! give me, Lord, the tender Heart, That trembles at the Approach of Sin, A godly Fear of Sin impart, Implant, and root it deep within, That I may dread thy Gracious Power, And never dare offend Thee more.

# Dictionary of National Biography, 1912 supplement/Lawson, George

​LAWSON, GEORGE (1831–1903), ophthalmic surgeon, born in London on 23 Aug. 1831, was second son of William Lawson of the firm of Trower, Trower and Lawson, wine merchants, of the City of London, by his wife Anne Norton. After education at the Blackheath proprietary school, he entered King's College Hospital in 1848. Admitted M.R.C.S. in 1852, he served for a year as house surgeon to Sir William Fergusson [q. v.]. In 1852 he became a licentiate in midwifery of the College of Surgeons and licentiate of the Society of Apothecaries. Early in 1854 Lawson entered the army as an assistant surgeon, and in March of that year he left England with the first draft of troops for Malta. On the outbreak of the Crimean war he was detailed for duty at Varna with the third division under General Sir Richard England; from Varna he went to the Crimea and saw the first shot fired at Bulganak. He was present at the battles of Alma and Inkerman and was sent to Balaclava about the middle of January 1855. He had a severe attack of typhus fever in May 1855, followed by complete paraplegia. Although he had been gazetted assistant surgeon to the third battalion of the rifle brigade he was invalided home and at the end of the war he resigned his commission.
Lawson then decided to practise in London. Elected F.R.C.S. in 1857, he settled at 63 Park Street, Grosvenor Square, and turned his attention more especially to ophthalmic surgery, probably at the suggestion of Sir William Bowman [q. v. Suppl. I], who had been assistant surgeon at King's College Hospital whilst Lawson acted as house surgeon. Becoming clinical assistant to Bowman at the Royal London Ophthalmic Hospital, Moorfields, he was in 1862 elected surgeon to the hospital on the retirement of Alfred Poland (1822–1872), was appointed full surgeon in 1867 and consulting surgeon in 1891. He held the post of surgeon to the Great Northern Hospital for a short time. To the Middlesex Hospital he was elected assistant surgeon in 1863, surgeon in 1871, lecturer on surgery in 1878, and consulting surgeon in 1896. He served as a member of the council of the College of Surgeons from 1884 to 1892, and in 1886 was appointed surgeon-oculist to Queen Victoria. He died in London on 12 Oct. 1903, and was buried at Hildenborough, Kent. He married, on 5 March 1863, Mary, daughter of William Thomson, of the Indian medical service, by whom he had seven sons.
Lawson practised ophthalmic surgery as a part of general surgery and was little affected by the tendency towards specialism which completely divorced the two subjects before his death.
His works are: 1. ‘Injuries of the Eye, Orbit and Eyelids; their immediate and remote effects,’ 1867. 2. ‘Diseases and Injuries of the Eye; their medical and surgical treatment,’ 1869; 6th edit. 1903.
