Wrightsville Superior Court last Monday convened and in clos¬ ed on Thursday Carswell, following. Gen. R. W. the recently appointed Judge with of this circuit, was connected several important cases which were necessarily contin¬ ued. An adjourned term will be held on the third Monday in Janua¬ ry next, at which time, we suppose, these cases and all other continued matter will be disposed of. Besides Messrs. A. F. Daley, E. O. Bostick and II. Currell, of the local bar, we note among the visiting attorneys the presence of Solicitor-Genera! J. K. Hines, and O. H. Rogers, of Sandersville; J. E. Hightower, Esq., and Col. J. M. Stubbs, of Dublin; Capt, J. II. Polhill, and R. L. Gam¬ ble, Esq., of Louisville; J. II. L. Al¬ len, Esq., of Bartow; Judge R, L. Rodgers, of Atlanta, and Col, Jose¬ phus Camp, of Swainsboro. After the court was fully delivered organ¬ ized and the able charge to the grand jury, Daley, Judge Hon. E. O. Bos¬ tick, Cob A. F. J. II. Polhili, and Solicitor-General J. K. Hines, were appointed suitable as resolutions a commit¬ tee to prepare upon the death of the late Judge of this circuit, and a recess was then taken for the balance of the day. The tribute of respect to the memo ry of our lamented Judge can be found in this,issue. But few cases of importance were disposed of during the present term. We anticipate a in lively January court next! at the adjourned term Tribute of Respect. The committee appointed to draft suitable resolutions commemorate of the Plon. Herschel V. Johnson, de¬ ceased, the lamented judge of this c reuit, beg leave to submit the fol¬ lowing report: VYe feel that we are inadequate to the task of presenting a tit and prop¬ er memorial of the worth and virtues of our late distinguished fellow citi¬ zen. Having occupied various po¬ sitions of public trust, he was always able, faithful and patriotic. As an advocate he was earnest, brilliant ind eloquent; as a jurist he was able, impartial and just,and is a Statesman he had broad and comprehensive views. Besides discharging the on¬ erous duties of Judge of this circuit he did not disdain the office of priest. He endeavored to minister to the spiritual wants of the neople and to elevate their morals. The middle circuit was his parish, and its people his flock. In the walks of private ■ life he was just, honest and exem¬ plary religious. He was the kindest of husbands, the fondest of parents and the truest of friends. There¬ fore. Be it Resolved, That in the death of the Hon. Herschel V. Johnson, the country has lost a faithful and patriotic public able servant, a brilliant lawyer, an and impartial judge, a profounu Statesman and a public benefactor. Resolved further, That there per¬ ished in him the fond husband, the kind father and the faithful friend. Resolved further, That this report be spread on the minutes of this court, and that a copy thereof be furnished by the clerk to the family of the distinguished deceased. f E. O. Bostick, char’n Committee -j [J. ^ II. Polhill. --- Gen. II. W.'Carswell. While we deeply deplore the death of Judge 11. V. Johnson, the model judge, whom life, we delighted to love and honor in and whose memo¬ ry we still embalm in sacred tears, we can but rejoice to know that his mantle has fallen upon one, who is worthy in every respect to wear the same. We commend Gov. Colquitt for the wise and judicious selection he has made, and in behalf of John¬ son welcome county, we R. \V. congratulate and -Gen. Carswell as the judge of-the Middle Circuit, He is a gentleman of unquestioned ability, hid' an able lawyer, possessed of a in that can grasp and solve at a mo¬ ment, any intricate point of law; and his appointment, no doubt, wifi give lie general satisfaction. admiration anil has won the esteem of Johnson county by his ability and dignity as a judge, and the general presentments which ap¬ pear in this issue will show that our people are anxious to have him re¬ elected to the position he now fills.
