| - Henry Wilson Scott (1866-1935), also known as Henry W. Scott or H. W. Scott, was a native of Illinois, who moved with his parental family while he was growing up. First to Iowa, then to Kansas, where Henry completed high school. After reading the law under the supervision of William J. Fuller, Esq., he was admitted to the bar in 1884. Scott opened a private law practice in Larned, Kansas until 1891, when he moved to Oklahoma City, then the second largest city in Oklahoma Territory. In 1893, President Grover Cleveland appointed Scott as the first Chief Justice for the Oklahoma Territorial Supreme Court. Republican William McKinley captured the U.S. Presidency in 1894, putting the Territorial Court position in play for a new occupant. Usually, all territorial officials understood the patronage system of the U.S. government and submitted their resignations promptly, but apparently Justice Scott did not follow the custom. As a result, Scott made himself a target for harassment by Republican officials until he finally resigned in 1896, leaving Oklahoma Territory for permanently. (en)
