APPENDIX I.

Supreme Court of the United States.

OCTOBER TERM, 1914.

IN MEMORIAM, HORACE HARMON LURTON.

On the reconvening of the court on October 12, 1914, the Chief Justice said: "It gives me pain to say that since the court adjourned at the end of the last term it has come to pass that the nation may no longer enjoy the fruitful and beneficent results to arise from the continued enlightened and devoted discharge by Mr. Justice Lurton of his public duties. He died at Atlantic City on the 5th day of July. In addition to the sorrow which they share with their countrymen at so great a loss, the members of the court have suffered the pang caused by the severance of the close personal ties which bound them to Mr. Justice Lurton; ties the strength of which cannot be fully appreciated without understanding how completely his attainments and his lovable traits of personal character commanded the respect and drew to him the warm affection of those who had the privilege of being associated with him in the performance of his judicial duties.”

The Bar of the Supreme Court of the United States and the officers of the court met in the court room in the Capitol at 12 o'clock, Saturday, March 27, 1915.

On motion of Mr. Solicitor General Davis, Hon. William Howard Taft was elected Chairman and Mr. James D. Maher was elected Secretary.

On taking the chair, Mr. Taft said:

We meet today as members of this Bar, to express our sense of loss in the death of Mr. Justice Lurton. Few men have had the training and experience adapted to fit them for the great duties of this court which Horace Lurton had. He did not have an extended collegiate education, but he had, in the four years before his maturity, the discipline of the life of a soldier in an active compaign, and the self-knowledge as to his physical and moral courage that exposure to hardship and death in war gives one as a foundation of character.

His interest in history and in public affairs was wide, and his love of reading great. His earnestness of purpose supplied the motive for the self-education that made up for the lack of an academic curriculum. He had wide sympathies with his fellowmen. He was in every way a good fellow. No ane appealed to his love of his kind without meeting a response.

He came to the Bar in 1867, and went into a most active practice in that period of judicial readjustment of estates, partnerships, and of all forms of business which was necessary before substantial recuperation of the South could take place. This period was a period of the greatest activity in the courts and among lawyers, and young Lurton was thrust into the current and showed himself capable of maintaining himself in the company of all the members of a most noteworthy Bar. After he had proved his mettle by a practice of eight years, he was called to act as a chancellor in the Clarksville district of Tennessee, and there he served for three years. This 59 L. ed.
