	Henry Duncan - Father of Savings Banks
		It was against this bleak landscape that Henry Duncan began his remarkable career ~ it was to span nearly half a century, produce something of a banking miracle and ultimately carry the name of Ruthwell throughout the world.
		It was something Henry Duncan never sought for its own sake ~ but his powerful intellect and untiring efforts on social reform brought a fair measure of celebrity, which he used skilfully for those who had no public platform.
		Henry Duncan said he had been born again, and from that time everything that followed in his life was dedicated to glorifying God and his Son.

	Significant Scots - Henry Duncan
		Duncan had gone on, beloved by his people, to whom he was a fair example of all that is dignified and amiable in the natural man, as well as zealous in the discharge of all those general duties with which his office was connected.
		Duncan brought the whole strength and experience of his mind to a revival of the plan under better arrangements; and the result was, that several friendly societies were originated in Ruthwell, having 300 members independent of the "parish box," and happy with each other in their public meetings and temperate soirees.
		Duncan had recourse to his brothers in Liverpool for the pecuniary means of action, and with their aid was enabled, at the close of 1809, to start the "Dumfries and Galloway Courier," a weekly newspaper, to which, without announcing the fact, he officiated as editor for the first seven years.

	Duncan v. Henry, 513 U.S., 364 (1995) (Site not responding. Last check: )
		The question is whether he presented the `legal theory.' Henry's federal habeas claim is that the erroneous admission of evidence at his state criminal trial, followed by the jury instruction, violated his federal constitutional right to due process and was so prejudicial as to require reversal of the conviction.
		In his direct appeal in state court, Henry did not label his claim a federal due process violation; he argued rather that Hackett's testimony was erroneously admitted because irrelevant and inflammatory, and that its admission resulted in a `miscarriage of justice' under the California Constitution.
		We find that Henry has done so, regarding both his argument that the erroneous admission of the testimony and the instructional error were a violation of his federal due process right and his argument that the error was so prejudicial as to warrant reversal.
