Robert Sutherland
Robert Sutherland (1830–1878), a native of Jamaica, was the first known graduate of colour at a Canadian university, and the first Black man to study law in British North America.〔Queens University. ("Robert Sutherland." ) QueensU.ca "Alumni." Retrieved on: 2009-05-30〕 A graduate of Queen's University. Sutherland qualified to practise law in Ontario under the then prevailing system of apprenticeship and examination. He studied at Osgoode Law School and practised law for 20 years in Walkerton, Ontario. Upon his death in 1878, Sutherland's left a large bequest (his entire estate of $12,000) to Queen's University,〔 roughly equivalent to the institution's annual operating budget. This donation was the largest the school had ever received, saving it from financial catastrophe in a banking crisis.〔(The 1st black graduate of Queen's saved his alma mater. Will his story be told? ) ''Globe & Mail'', 2009-01-13.〕
