He subsequently decided to enter the legal profession, and accordingly pctit two years In read ing under the direction of hi father, and was admitted to the bar in 1856, and since that time ha given himself unremittingly to his professional duties. In Novem ber, 1850, he removed to Cairo, and there soon secured an extensive and remun erative clientage. His standing as a man, and his skill as an attorney, is of the highest order, and he has been honored ly his fellow-citizens with various posi tions of public trust. His first presiden tial vote was cast for Fremont in 1S5C, and always having been a warm sup porter ol the Kepubllcan party, he hat on many occasions ably sus tained its principles, and vindi cated Its course of action. From 1SG4 to 1S05 he was mayor of his city, and in March 1869, was elected judge ot the Nineteenth Judicial circuit. In June 1872, without opposition, he wa electel to the judgeship of the Twenty-sixth judicial circuit, (the circuit having been reorganized by the legislature in accor dance with the provisions of the consti tution of 1S70), and holds that position at the present time, (137C).

A a citizen he i held in the high est esteem ; and in all matters pertaining to the interest of his state or country ha manifested au active interest, and iu many ways contributed to public progress and improvement. Naturally of a generous disposition, his hand has ever been open to supply the wants of the needy and those in distress ; and al though he has never been a man of wealth, he has always possessed a liberal compe tence, and now lives in the enjoyment of a happy home. Though not connected with' any church or ganization, he adheres to the truths of Christianity, and is a regular attendant upon the services of the Protestant Episcopal church. He is a member of the Masonic fraternity ; has been a Mas ter Mason since March 17, 1864, and was, during oue year, junior warden of his lodge. Judge Biker was married iu July, 18C4, to Mis.
