Not notable. Small district councilor only. Lacks any depth of coverage in multiple independent reliable sources. (The Cyclopedia of New Zealand is vanity publishing). One of a glut of articles on seemingly non notable St Peter's College old boys. Wikipedia is not a webhost for a collection bios of a schools former students. duffbeerforme (talk) 07:33, 14 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: important early lawyer in Auckland; discussed in Portrait of a Profession (standard history of the new Zealand legal profession), edited by Lord Cook.Rick570 (talk) 21:40, 20 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Important according to who? Does the book mention or discuss him? What does that one page say? What other sources are there? duffbeerforme (talk) 02:38, 21 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
