He was a Director of the East India Company.[2] The 2nd Baronet served as Governor General of Canada from 1869 to 1872 and was raised to the peerage as Baron Lisgar, of Lisgar and Bailieborough in the County of Cavan, in 1870. The peerage became extinct on his death in 1876; while he was succeeded in the baronetcy by his nephew, the 3rd Baronet.
