A member of the Texas Supreme Court, a two-term governor (1879-83), and the first law professor at the new University of Texas, Oran Roberts was a fellow landowner in Waller County, where Liendo, Ney’s country home, was located. He was one of Ney’s most influential and loyal supporters. This bust was Ney’s first made in the United States.
