Sir W. B. Brett, the new Solicitor-General, 1868. Engraving from a photograph by John Watkins. Sir William Baliol Brett, Queen's Counsel, '...was distinguished as a boating man; he rowed several times in the University crew, and subsequently in the Cambridge crew on the Thames. In January, 1846, he was called to the Bar by the Hon. Society of Lincoln's Inn...At Liverpool he has for many years been opposed to the late Mr. Edward James, Q.C., in almost every case of importance, and, on the death of that gentleman, he became the virtual leader of the circuit there. He has been a member of several Government Commissions...In 1866,...Mr. Brett obtained the seat for Helston'. From "Illustrated London News", 1868.
