At no time in tin history of our

bench drew from foreign lawyer in
attendance, mauv highly complimenta
ry leinirks upon Ids habits as -. student,

in these clmractenstlcs; nor uathers
from the tiial of a cause a more sue I

universal respect. No circuit judge
has a wider reputation, than .Indue
Henry S. Knlley. He is noted for hu
