		Edward Henry Carson, 1st Baron Carson (February 9, 1854 – October 22, 1935) was a leader of the Irish Unionists, a Barrister and a Judge.

		Carson's first success at the English bar was in the libel action brought in 1895 by Oscar Wilde against the Marquess of Queensberry, which caused him to be acknowledged by common consent as one of the foremost advocates at the bar.
		Carson consented, solely, as he said, "on account of the representations made to me as to the urgency of the matter for the prosecution of the war and the encouragement of America to join the Allies...".
		Carson now felt that his place should be taken by a younger man, and at a meeting of the Ulster Unionist Council held on 4 February 1921 he announced his resignation as leader of the Ulster Unionists.

	1912-14 Anti-Home Rule Poster Stamps
		These "Ulster Unionists" were led by Sir Edward Carson (1854-1935), a Dublin-born lawyer who in 1910 became head of the Irish Unionist bloc in the House of Commons.
		Carson was convinced that only drastic measures could prevent Home Rule; he did his best to obstruct the bill in the Commons, and with James Craig raised an 80,000 man force called the Ulster Volunteers to resist the measure forcibly if and when it was enacted.
		The portrait type of Carson also appears in a 1914 etching by John George Day (National Portrait Gallery, London; NPG 2916); whether the Day etching was in fact the specific model for the poster stamps is not certain.

		Carson launched the comeback with an elementary three-point formula: Jettison non-core businesses--including global operations--clean up the balance sheet, and flawlessly execute the basics.
		Carson's strategy beat a hasty retreat from that of his ambitious predecessor, Joseph J. Pinola, who dreamed of First Interstate competing with such full-service, global financial giants as Citibank and Merrill Lynch and who stitched together a far-flung empire in 14 states.
		But as much as the campaigns were designed to attract business, Carson says, they also aimed to empower front-line staffers and steep them in the rudiments of the company's new sales- and service-oriented culture.
