He was appointed Solicitor General of Canada in 1902 and served until 1904 at a time when the position was not a cabinet office but was part of the ministry. He left politics to become a judge in the Quebec Superior Court in 1904 and was appointed to the Court of King's Bench in 1908. In 1912 he served as chairman of Quebec's Royal Commission examining the alcohol trade and subsequently served as vice-president province's liquor commission from 1921 to 1929 when he was appointed lieutenant-governor. ==References== * * (Henry George CARROLL ) at Assemblée nationale du Québec 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Henry George Carroll」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
