Henry Hucks Gibbs

First Baron Aldenham, businessman, and former director of the Bank of England, Hucks Gibbs joined the Philological Society in 1859. Through the Society, he formed a lifelong association with the OED, becoming a close friend and adviser to Murray. The quotation slip written by Hucks Gibbs was in fact never used, although many submitted by him were. The text reads: ‘1562 Pilgr. Perf. (W. de W. 1531) f. 6g, Come to me all you that be ouercharged, and I shall refresshe you.’
