Augustus Goldsmid (1818-74), barrister. The nephew of Sir Isaac Lyon Goldsmid and Sir David Salomons, he was called to the Bar at Inner Temple on 18 November 1842, becoming the third professing Jewish barrister (after Sir Francis Goldsmid and Sir John Simon). He was a noted supporter of Jewish emancipation, and came to prominence in his capacity as one of three barristers acting as defence counsel in the case of Miller vs Solomons (1852) in the Court of Exchequer. His mother's brother, David Salomons, had been elected MP, and took an oath in the House of Commons according to a formula binding on his own conscience. Since Salomons voted three times (21 July 1851), having taken what had transpired to have been an unacceptable oath, he was fined £500 for each vote. The 1852 case was an action to recover the unpaid fines from Salomons, who lost; nevertheless Goldsmid published the case. He was promoted to lieutenant in the First Regiment of the Royal Surrey Militia (1853), was in Paris in an official government capacity (1858), and contested the Norwich parliamentary seat as an Independent (1865). He appears by then to have converted to Anglicanism, and his later years were obscure.<br />
