I'm looking for photos / sketches / portraits of him for the CPS project's history book.

The RAS article HONG KONG CADETS, 1862-1941 gives a brief introduction:

Robert Andrew Dermod Forrest (born 1893). Educated at Aberdeen University. Hong Kong Civil Service 1919; Inspector of vernacular Schools; Immigration Officer 1940. Lecturer in Tibeto-Burman Linguistics at the School of Oriental and African Studies at London University.

I'm looking for photos / sketches / portraits of him for the CPS project's history book, as he served as first Police Magistrate for several years:

Walter Schofield (1888-1968) was a cadet officer in the Hong Kong civil service from 1911 to 1938.

After serving in various posts, including that of district officer, South, he was first police magistrate in 1931-33, and again in 1934-37, it being customary for such posts to be filled by cadets up to 1941.

Most mentions of H. E. Wodehouse are in connection with his son, the author P G Wodehouse. But I'm interested in H. E. because of his work as a magistrate in Hong Kong. I'm looking for photos / sketches / portraits of him for the CPS project's history book.

I've got one possible source, but if you know of any other photos, please let me know.

James RUSSELL [1842-1893]

I'm looking for photos / sketches / portraits of him for the CPS project's history book. He started out as a Hong Kong Government Cadet in 1865, before being appointed as Police Magistrate in 1870, replacing Goodlake. He left Hong Kong in 1892, and by then he was Chief Justice and had been knighted [1].

There aren't any results for russell in the photo search at HKPRO. He served with Legco, but they don't have a photo [3]. No relevant results for russell hong kong in the UKNA.
