• "On the 13th September 1842 , Mr. Abraham Logan advertised that he had commenced practice in Singapore as a Law Agent and Notary Public. He afterwards was one of the leading lawyers of the place, and for a long time proprietor and editor of the Free Press. He was born at Hatton Hall, Berwickshire, on 31st August, 1816. He practised in Singapore for many years, first with his younger brother, James Richardson Logan, who was born at the same place on 10th April, 1819, and arrived in the Straits in February, 1839. In 1853, J. R. Logan went to Penang, and Abraham practised alone for some years, and in 1862 was joined by Mr. Thomas Braddell. Mr. Logan went to Penang in 1869, and died there on 20th December, 1873. In Singapore he lived for many years at Mount Pleasant, Thomson's Road. His brother was the founder and editor of the Journal of the Indian Archipelago. He died in Penang on 20th October, 1869, and a monument was erected to his memory, by the people of the Straits Settlements, in front of the Supreme Court in Penang, the lengthy inscription on which speaks of his death, in the prime of his manhood, as a public calamity, and of his having always been first, and sometimes standing alone, in promoting the welfare of the Settlements; and also of his having founded the Journal of the Indian Archlpelal."
