Talk:Evelyn Baring, 1st Baron Howick of Glendale

Odd
The so-called "Synopsis of Baring career" only refers to Baring shortly. It mostly refers to Douglas-Hume. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.148.100.41 (talk) 12:01, 11 August 2011 (UTC)

 * Seven years is a pretty fair stint for a governor. The rebellion was pretty much over, and he had pushed through political, agricultural, and economic reforms against the wishes of many of the settlers. The ODNB article is much better than ours. DuncanHill (talk) 20:56, 18 February 2022 (UTC)
