A fact from Ethel Benjamin appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 5 October 2007. The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that Ethel Benjamin was the first woman in the British Empire to present a legal case in court?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2007/October.

Annual New Zealand Law Foundation Ethel Benjamin Commemorative Address[edit]

I was going to add this to the legacy section but not found appropriate links.

Ethel Benjamin Commemorative Address - Page on Otago Women Lawyers Society site. The OWLS organise the event. This has the list of previous women invited to give the address and links to their speech. NZ Law Foundation media releases also gives the date, time and who is given the address. The 2016 media release gives a bit of background too: 20th Ethel Benjamin Commemorative Address, 2015, 2013, 2012. 2002 address by Margaret Wilson,

Just found a few articles in ODT about this. It makes sense since ODT is a Dunedin paper. It is reprinted in NZ Herald so there's likely to be NZ Herald related links too. "Just" as in while writing this section after not finding it earlier...

There's probably enough to put in a sentence or two about the address. No time tonight. will do it later. Leaving it hear so I don't lose the links. Linnah (talk) 08:34, 17 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
