great abilities, natural goodness of heart, and an inflexible love for truth and justice, never fail to secure.
"In the sudden and untimely departure of this distinguished citizen, society at large mourns the loss of one of its highest and brightest ornaments; but his companions of the bench and the bar, who participated so long in his public and professional labors, and who knew and admired his great abilities, the quick and searching powers of his mind, and his immovable sense of duty, all feel in this sad dispensation that deeper gloom which a thorough and intimate knowledge of his incorruptible worth was so eminently calculated to inspire. While the whole country will do honor to the private virtues of the man, they unite in lamenting a judge whose official merits always commanded their confidence and veneration.
"In a lively sense of these feelings, the court, seconding the sympathies and the desires of the bar, sanctions a record of this tribute of sorrow and applause, and, in token of grief and regard, it is further ordered that the clerk enter this, memorial on the minutes, that he address a copy to the family of the deceased, and that the court shall stand adjourned until to-morrow morning at 9 o'clock."
