William Henry Tuck

William Henry Tuck (27 February 1831 – 8 April 1913) was a Canadian lawyer and judge.

[1][2] He was described by Andrew George Blair as "undoubtedly the most skilful examiner" at the provincial bar.

[3] Tuck was Chief Justice of New Brunswick from 1896 to 1908.

[4] When Mabel French sought entrance to the New Brunswick bar, she was refused, as legally she was not a person and therefore, not entitled to practise law.
