Howe, for whom he later helped create the post of chancellor of Dalhousie University. Appointed an officer of the Order of Canada in 1982, Covert's citation noted that he had "given generously of his counsel and leadership to universities, hospitals and charitable organizations" - an understatement typical of the man, who believed that successful work was its own best reward.50 years in the practice of lawLawyersNova ScotiaBiographyCorporate lawyersCanadaBiographyAvocatsNouvelle-EcosseBiographiesAvocats de societeCanadaBiographiesLawyersCorporate lawyersAvocatsAvocats de societe340.92BCovert Frank Manning1908-1987.1719997Cahill Barry1637055MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910824539103321Fifty years in the practice of law4118280UNINA
