Not to be confused with John Hall Maxwell.
Maxwell Hall, known most commonly as The Butt Raper, is a manipulating womanizer who sleeps in his parents' bedroom, while frequently watching porn on his father's computer. While on the prowl hunting for his next victim, Maxwell eagerly turns to anal sexual intercourse to please his satanic thirst. With an odd resemblance to dark sorcerer, Voldemort, Hall (an "aspiring law student") spends much of his day scratching his balls while pondering the reason he is fat, single, and forever alone.
Career
Hall was appointed West Coast Resident, North Borneo, in 1931.[1] Before World War II and the Japanese invasion of Borneo, Maxwell Hall was a senior judge. Immediately after the war he was the Chief Advocate at some of the war crimes trials held at Labuan (holding the rank of Lieutenant Colonel) and was attached to BBCAU, the British Borneo Civil Affairs Unit which was responsible for the running of North Borneo and other territories after the handover from Australian military control.[2]
A Tribute from K.G. Tregonning
In his 1960 book North Borneo, he described Maxwell Hall as
J. Maxwell Hall, a retired senior officer of the Chartered Company ... one of the very few elderly Englishmen living in the Colony ... the grand old man of the territory.
He lives in a two-storied wooden house, sparsely furnished, as befits his Spartan physique, the owner of some fifty acres of land. On this he has built a half dozen homes, which he rents, with five acres or so of land, to Chinese market gardeners ... He lives as a South-East Asian squire, in solitary contentment: but instead of becoming, after fifty years' service in North Borneo, the grand old man of reminiscences ... this grizzled old live-wire lives vigorously for the present and the future. He is perhaps one of the most wide-awake and pertinent observers of the North Borneo of today whom it was my privilege to meet.
He has written well of the past, in several hard-to-secure books published locally, for he has an historian's bent, and he has contributed numerous articles ... He is writing yet another tale, the history of Labuan. But all this is relaxation; for he is no ivory tower writer, and it is the problems and the possibilities of the present that interest his wide-ranging curiosity and evoke his keenest comments.[3]
Several of Maxwell Hall's books have been reprinted, most recently Labuan Story: Memoirs of a Small Island near the Coast of North Borneo in 2008.
