No clear notability, no secondary sources, primary sourced cited are not even easily accessed. Article was created by one of the many socks of the prolific Candia/Levieux hoax vandal. Phso2 (talk) 09:34, 19 November 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete. I'm pretty sure this is a hoax. The author has taken a probably real but equally probably non-notable person and written an essentially fictional biography about him. A knighthood would make him notable, but I can find no evidence of him being knighted. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:32, 19 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete. He seems to be real enough - The Times has him attending a levee in 1873. But I can’t find evidence of a knighthood, which would make him notable. Also the article is riddled with what seems to be utter fiction. In particular, the LSE was founded when he would have been in his 50s, which makes his attendance highly suspect.
