Charles Wade
FameRank: 4

"Sir Charles Gregory Wade" Knight Commander of the Order of St Michael and St George/KCMG, King's Counsel/KC, Justice of the Peace/JP was Premier of New South Wales 2 October 1907 – 21 October 1910. According to Percival Serle, "Wade was a public-spirited man of high character. His ability, honesty and courage were quickly recognized and, though he could not be called a great leader, he was either in office or leader of the opposition for nearly the whole of his political life of 14 years. His career as a judge was short, but his sense of justice and grasp of principles and details, eminently fitted him for that position."
