Hiram Parkes "Harrie" Wilkinson, BCL, KC (1866–1935) served as Crown Advocate of the British Supreme Court for China and Japan from 1897 to 1925. He was also Acting Assistant Judge of the British Court for Siam from 1903 to 1905 and Judge of the British High Court of Weihaiwei from 1916 to 1925. He was the son of Sir Hiram Shaw Wilkinson who also served as Crown Advocate, Judge of the British Court for Japan and Chief Justice of the British Supreme Court for China and Corea. ==Early Life== Wilkinson was born in a bungalow at the British Legation on the Bluff in Yokohama, Japan while his father was a student interpreter in the British Japan Consular Service.〔''North China Herald'', 31 October 1925, pp 200-1〕 He was called Harrie by his family. He was presumably named after Harry Parkes who was then British Minister in Japan. He was brought up in Japan before attending school at the Methodist College Belfast and Exeter College, Oxford.〔Biographical information is sourced from Wilkinson's obituary in ''The Times'', 2 April 1935, p 19 unless otherwise noted.〕 After qualifying as a barrister in 1890, he practiced briefly on the Western Circuit before he went to Shanghai to join his father who was then in practice as the British Crown Advocate in Shanghai. 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「Hiram Parkes Wilkinson」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
