In 1867 his father was appointed to St Marys Church Port Louis and Bishop of Mauritius and died there in June 1871. I have not been able to locate him in the 1871 Census so it's possible he had gone to Mauritius to help his mother see to his fathers affairs and her return to live at Newport Road Barnstaple in Devon by 18th June 1871.Clearly he was well educated and studied law as he next appears already working in Dorchester at the age of 28 in the April 1881 Census in lodgings at 6 High West Street.
