He obtained an elementary education in the public schools, with an advanced course at Toronto, and is a graduate of Osgoode Hall law school. He was admitted to the bar in 1877, and at once established practice in Welland, and is at present a member of the law firm of Harcourt, Cowper & Macoomb, with offices on East Main Street, opposite the Court House. In public life Mr Cowper has always evinced an interest in the welfare of his adopted town, and has been for many years a member of its Public School Board. He was appointed County  Crown Attorney in January 1892, and still retains the position. He resides in one of the many beautiful residences adorning Welland’s fashionable avenue.
