Browning (United States senator during the Civil War; secretary of the interior, 1866-1869) is now the St. Joseph's Hospital for the Chronically 111.
GREY, Sir George Edward (1812-1898), British colonial administrator, who was governor and later prime minister of New Zealand. He was born in Lisbon, Portugal, on April 14, 1812, and was educated at Sandhurst in England. In 1837-1839 he explored Western Australia and afterward was governor of South Australia.
In 1845, Grey was transferred to New Zealand, where he served as lieutenant governor and governor. As governor of Cape Colony, South Africa, in 1854-1861, he proposed a federation of South Africa. He was again governor of New Zealand from 1861 to 1867, when he was recalled.
There are also hydraulic, electric, and various combinations of mechanical, electric, and hydraulic governors. Where the change-effecting force is much greater than that which can be supplied by a single governor, a combination such as a flyball governor and a hydraulic governor is often used. In this instance the output of the flyball governor is amplified through a servomechanism, which is a part of the hydraulic governor.
