			On his death the Boston Guardian of 9th July 1910 included in its tribute:

			<blockquote>
			Mr Hill's influence at that time ''[the time of the Russio-Turkish War]'' in the political world was very considerable, and his writings, which were always brilliant, were reckoned a great asset to the Liberal Party. His style was trenchant and incisive and charged with a fine caustic humour. Although a keen political force, his chief interest was in literature, especially the classics, of which he was all his life a close student.
