We also find the following names on the list: Major Bacon (of Seafield), John Wulff, Samuel Harris (father of the present High-Bailiff), Gavin Torrance, William Duff, Lewis Crebbin, Frank Matthews, James Lewin, Thomas Bridson, John Winram, Richard Quirk (Receiver-General), H.

The last two names are those of two English Directors who were added in 1888, when the " Isle of Man, Liverpool, and Manchester Company " was bought. The number of the Directors was then increased to seven, of whom five had to be resident in the Isle of Man.
