Leonard Harper (1832 – 27 October 1915) was a 19th-century Member of Parliament in Canterbury, New Zealand. Harper was born in 1832. His father was Henry Harper, who became the first bishop of Christchurch. He represented the Cheviot electorate from 1876 to 1878, when he resigned. He then represented the Avon electorate from 1884 to 1887, when he again resigned. He bought Ilam homestead, once the largest residential building in Christchurch,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url= http://www.staffclub.canterbury.ac.nz/history.shtml )〕 and was for some years co-owner of Risingholme, which was bought from the estate of William Reeves. Harper left New Zealand in July 1891. It only emerged later that his law firm was bankrupt, and that NZ£200,000 had been embezzled.〔 He later lived on Jersey, the largest of the Channel Islands, where he died in 1915. Arthur Paul Harper was his son.〔 ==References== |- 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「Leonard Harper」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
