Januar 1631), manchmal auch der „Kurier von Cambridge“ genannt, ist vor allem durch den Ausdruck Hobson’s choice bekannt. Als Kurier von Cambridge war er für die Post zwischen London und Cambridge zuständig und besaß einen Stall außerhalb der Tore des St Catharine’s College. Wenn seine Pferde nicht für die Post benötigt wurden, wurden sie an Studenten und Professoren der Universität verliehen. Der Dichter John Milton hat sowohl Hobson als auch den Ausdruck popularisiert.

Employé de poste de Cambridge, Hobson livrait le courrier sur la ligne Londres - Cambridge et possédait une étable en dehors des grilles du « St Catharine's College ».
