Echo (London): Tuesday 2nd May 1893

The death of Sir Robert Pinsent, which occurred at his father-in-law’s rectory in Norfolk on Thursday, will be a great loss to Newfoundland. Sir Robert was hardly sixty and was one of the best authorities on the vexed fisheries question. He was called to the Newfoundland Bar in 1856 and was appointed a Member of the Legislative Council three years later. Subsequently he became successively Attorney General and Solicitor General and in 1880 he became a Puisne Judge, a position which he held till his death. Sir Robert was son of the late Judge Pinsent of the Court of Labrador, was a thoroughly sound lawyer and painstaking judge who was cordially esteemed by all who knew him.
