Stanley Carr Boulter (29 May 1852 – 5 January 1917) was a British lawyer and businessman, who established The Law Debenture Corporation. In 1902, he married Helen Carte, widow of Richard D'Oyly Carte, and he assisted in the financing of the Savoy hotel group. ==Education and career== Boulter was educated at Clare College, Cambridge before being called to the Bar in 1879.〔Obituary: p. 152, ''The Annual Register: a review of public events at home and abroad, for the year 1917''. London: Longmans, Green and Co. 1918.〕〔''The Times'' 28 January 1879, p. 11〕 During his legal career, he was at one point editor of the Law Reports in ''The Times''.〔 As a barrister he concentrated on commercial and financial civil cases.〔''The Times'', 10 March 1883, p. 6; 18 April 1883, p. 6; 30 April 1883, p. 3; and 4 July 1883, p. 3.〕 Such criminal cases as he took were generally concerned with fraud and breaches of bankruptcy laws.〔e.g., ''The Times'', 16 May 1884, p. 33; and 30 October 1885, p. 14〕 From 1885 onwards he was sufficiently eminent to appear before the Court of Appeal.〔''The Times'', 2 May 1885, p. 5; and 8 July 1885, p. 4〕 In 1889, Boulter turned his energies to finance. He was one of the founders of the Law Debenture Corporation, of which he remained the chairman until his death.〔(The Share Gallery )〕 He was also chairman of the Imperial Colonial Finance and Agency Corporation, and the New Investment Company.〔''The Times'', 9 January 1917, p. 11〕 ''The Times'' called him "one of the leading representatives of the great Trust Companies.... Nobody was better than Mr. Boulter at handling a difficult meeting of shareholders ... and restoring confidence."〔 In politics, Boulter began as a Liberal, but disagreed with his party leader, W. E. Gladstone, over Irish home rule. Boulter stood unsuccessfully as a "Liberal Unionist" in the general election of 1886,〔''The Times'', 8 July 1886, p. 6〕 and his political views came to be aligned with those of the Conservative party, particularly on any matters affecting the integrity of the British empire.〔Boulter, Stanley. "Liberal Votes and the Boers", ''The Times'', 18 October 1900〕 In social politics he remained more liberal, advocating public assistance for working men to buy homes.〔"Municipal aided purchase of artisans' dwellings", ''The Observer'', 31 July 1894, p. 4〕 In his later years, he was a Justice of the Peace for Surrey.〔
