Early career Egerton was born the only son of Walter Egerton , a gentleman of Exeter , Devon . After an education at Tonbridge School , in 1880 Egerton went out from England to the Straits Settlements as a cadet and for several years served there and in the protected states of Malaya . In 1880 , aged about 21 , he was a Magistrate at Singapore ; in 1883 he became Collector at Penang ; he was next a Commissioner of the Court of Requests at Penang and was appointed Acting Resident there in 1894 ; In 1888 , he was an acting First Magistrate at Penang , to which position he was later appointed . Egerton was admitted to the Middle Temple on 27 April 1888 and was Called to the Bar on 17 June 1896 . He acted as the Colonial Secretary for the Straits Settlements between 1899 and 1901 . A commemorative group photograph taken at the 2nd Durbar held on 20 July 1903 . sitting from left to right : William Treacher ( resident-general ) , Sultan Alaiddin Sulaiman of Selangor , Sultan Idris of Perak , Sir Frank Swettenham ( governor ) , Sultan Ahmad Maatham of Pahang , Tuanku Muhammad ( Yang di-Pertuan Besar of Negeri Sembilan ) , Walter Egerton ( resident-general of Negeri Sembilan ) Egerton was Resident in the protected state of Negeri Sembilan ( 1902-03 ) . In this role , he got involved in the laws related to a form of servitude where a woman 's illegitimate children were given into the custody of the local ruler . Egerton decided that this was contrary to Sharia law , and that the children belonged to their mothers . In this he was supported by the Sultan of Perak . When Egerton became Governor of Lagos Colony in 1903 he already had more than twenty years of experience in the colonial service in the far east . Jalan Penghulu Cantik in Seremban was once named Egerton Road in his memory . Nigeria Alafin of Oyo and Sir Walter Egerton , ca . 1910 Egerton became Governor of Lagos Colony , covering most of the Yoruba lands in the southwest of what is now Nigeria , in 1903 . The colonial office wanted to amalgamate the Lagos Colony with the protectorate of Southern Nigeria , and in August 1904 also appointed Egerton as High Commissioner for the Southern Nigeria Protectorate . He held both offices until 28 February 1906 . On that date the two territories were formally united and Egerton was appointed Governor of the new Colony and Protectorate of Southern Nigeria , holding office until 1912 . In the new Southern Nigeria , the old Lagos Colony became the Western Province , and the former Southern Nigerian Protectorate was split into a Central Province with capital at Warri and an Eastern Province with capital at Calabar . When his predecessor in Southern Nigeria , Sir Ralph Denham Rayment Moor , resigned , a large part of the southeast of Nigeria was still outside British control . On taking office , Egerton began a policy of sending out annual pacification patrols , which generally obtained submission through the threat of force without being required to actually use force . Egerton had a somewhat abrupt manner in his dealings with the Colonial Office . In a letter of 1910 he wrote a letter describing the salary of one of his employees as " niggardly " . The recipient was highly offended , and said he should be called to order . When Egerton became Governor of Lagos he enthusiastically endorsed the extension of the Lagos - Ibadan railway onward to Oshogbo , and the project was approved in November 1904 . Construction began in January 1905 and the line reached Oshogbo in April 1907 . He favored rail over river transport , and pushed to have the railway further extended to Kano by way of Zaria . He also sponsored extensive road construction , building on the legislative foundation laid by his predecessor Moor which enabled use of unpaid local labor . Egerton shared Moor 's views on the damage that was being done to the Cross River trade by the combination of indigenous middlemen and traders based in Calabar . The established traders at first got the Colonial Office to pass rules inhibiting competition from traders willing to set up bases further inland , but with some difficulty Egerton persuaded the officials to reverse their ruling . Sir Walter Egerton ( far right ) with his wife and other westerners in Lagos , c. 1910 Egerton was a strong advocate of colonial development . He believed in deficit financing at certain periods of a colony 's growth , which was reflected in his budgets from 1906 to 1912 . He had a constant struggle to obtain approval for these budgets from the colonial office . As early as 1908 , Egerton supported the idea of " a properly organized Agricultural Department with an energetic and experienced head " , and the Department of Agriculture came into being in 1910 . Egerton endorsed the development of rubber plantations , a concept familiar to him from his time in Malaya , and arranged for land to be leased for this purpose . This was the foundation of a highly successful industry . He also thought there could be great potential in the tin fields near Bauchi , and thought that if proven a branch line to the tin fields would be justified . Egerton came into conflict with the administration of Northern Nigeria on a number of issues . There was debate over whether Ilorin should be incorporated into Southern Nigeria since the people were Yoruba , or remain in Northern Nigeria since the ruler was Muslim and for some time Ilorin had been subject to the Uthmaniyya Caliphate . There was argument about the administration of duties on goods landed on the coast and carried into Northern Nigeria . And there was dispute over whether railway lines from the north should terminate at Lagos or should take alternative routes to the Niger River and the coast . Egerton had reason on his side in objecting to the proposed line terminating at Baro on the Niger , since navigation southward to the coast was restricted to the high water season , and even then was uncertain . It is said that the Old Secretariat , Marina is built in an E-shape manner in honour of him . Egerton 's administration imposed policies that tended towards segregation of Europeans and Africans . These included excluding Africans from the West African Medical Service and saying that no European should take orders from an African , which had the effect of ruling out African doctors from serving with the army . Egerton himself did not always approve of these policies , and they were not strictly upheld . The legal relationship between the Lagos government and the Yoruba states of the Lagos Colony was not clear , and it was not until 1908 that Egerton persuaded the Obas to accept the establishment of the Supreme Court in the main towns . Later career In 1912 , Egerton was replaced by Frederick Lugard , who was appointed Governor-General of both Southern and Northern Nigeria with the mandate to unite the two . Egerton was appointed Governor of British Guiana as his next posting , clearly a demotion , which may have been connected to his fights with the Colonial Office officials . He was Governor of British Guiana from 1912 until 1917 . In May 1914 it was reported that Egerton had a plan to build a railway from the coast to the Brazilian border , a distance of 340 miles ( 550 km ) . The new line would open up gold and diamond fields as well as supporting timber extraction and development of arable land . The main problem was obtaining the funding . Years later , Egerton said " if you ask what my policy is , I should say ' open means of communication ' and if you wish for additional information , I would reply ' open more of them ! ' " Honours and private life Egerton was appointed a Companion of the Order of St Michael and St George ( CMG ) in November 1901 , and in 1905 became a Knight Commander ( KCMG ) of the same order . In 1911 , he received the honorary degree of Doctor of Laws from the University of Edinburgh . In 1905 , Egerton married Ada Maud Sneyd-Kynnersley OBE , a daughter of the Rev. George Lloyd Nash and the widow of C. W. Sneyd-Kynnersley CMG. After his retirement to England , Egerton became a member of the Junior Carlton and the Royal Automobile Club . His wife died on 20 December 1934 , and Egerton survived her until 22 March 1947 . At the time of his death , his address was stated in Who 's Who as " Fair Meadow , Mayfield , Sussex " . |
