I'm looking for photos / sketches / portraits of him for the CPS project's history book. There's a mention of him in WHO'S WHO IN THE FAR EAST (JUNE) 1906-7:
MELBOURNE, Charles Alexander Dick (HONGKONG), Barrister-at-Law, Police Magistrate; b. Sept. 22, 1869. Educ: Trinity Hall, Cambridge. 1st Clerk, Magistracy, Hongkong, May 1, 1900; J.P., May 30, 1900 ; Assistant Superintendent, Victoria Gaol, Dec. 9, 1903, to Dec. 7, 1904; Assistant Land Officer, April 4, 1905, to Oct. 17, 1905 ; Commissioner to administer oaths, Aug. 17, 1905; Police Magistrate, Oct. 18, 1905. Club : Hongkong. Address: Magistracy, Hongkong.
So he's got two links to the CPS, having worked in both the Magistracy and Victoria Prison.
