	Sir Alexander James Edmund Cockburn - LoveToKnow 1911 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		In 1834 Cockburn was well enough thought of to be made a member of the commission to inquire into the state of the corporations of England and Wales.
		Cockburn made an exhaustive study of the medical aspects of the case, and the prisoner's comment when convicted after a twelve days' trial was, alluding to the attorney-general's advocacy, "It was the riding that did it." In 1854 Cockburn was made recorder of Bristol.
		The greatest public occasion on which Sir Alexander Cockburn acted, outside his usual judicial functions, was that of the "Alabama" arbitration, held at Geneva in 1872, in which he represented the British government, and dissented from the view taken by the majority of the arbitrators, without being able to convince them.
