For thirteen years prior to 191C ho

confidence. Resigning that office to
take up general practice, with head
quarters at Milledgevilie. he became
ns distinguished as n counsel in de
fense as he had been in pro ecu-
tion. With keen insight into humar
nature, he combined a mastery «>f the
principles of evidence and a skill in
its presentation that made him one
of the notable jury lawyers of his
day. *
He was true to the highest ethics
of his profession, regarding it not
merely u means to personal fucccss,
but also as an obligation -and oppor
tunity to serve the noble ends of
justice and to do good to his fellow-
man. Such was the spirit of his
dealings with the community, such
the character of his citirenshin.
