Henry Parish a New York merchant died in 1856 at age 69. He had made his will in 1842 but subsequently amended it with three codicils signed after he had suffered a paralyzing stroke in 1849. These codicils were contested by James and Daniel Parish residuary devisees in the will on the grounds of mental impairment. The New York Surrogate's Court and subsequently the state Court of Appeals ultimately rejected their argument and upheld the codicils. This trial attracted a good deal of attention and both legal teams were comprised of talented prominent lawyers. Porter a lawyer for the contestants was a highly ranked member of the New York Bar and was involved in state politics. He went on to hold a seat on the New York Court of Appeals before returning to private practice; he was also one of the prosecutors of Charles Guiteau for the assassination of President James Garfield in 1881.

Davis captained the Aurora during Douglas Mawson's Australasian Antarctic Expedition making him second in command. He had previously served as Chief Officer on the Nimrod with Shackleton's British Antarctic Expedition 1907-09. "As captain of the Aurora during Mawson's 1911-14 expedition Davis was able to produce one of the few first-hand accounts available in print. His publishers however clearly had wartime difficulties with the book most often seen today with its gilt lettering and decoration badly faded" Taurus. The work provides great detail on the expedition with copious plans maps and illustrations. In 1917 after the stranding of the Endurance in Shackleton's Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition it was Davis in the Aurora who with Shackleton as his supernumerary rescued the Ross Sea Party. Shackleton had initially wanted Davis to captain the Endurance however Davis refused believing the expedition was "foredoomed." The Davis Sea in Eastern Antarctica is named after him.
