Hon. Byron Paine.

Hon. Byron Paine was born IN Paines-
vile. OHIO, October 10Th, 1928. He re-
moved 10 Mi "aukee with his parents in
November. ls47. lie studied law there
with his father, Gen. james II. Pane,
aud was admitted to practice in l849
IL was industrious in his profession. and
soon became nm able and powerful advo-
cate. In 1854 he made an Argument
before the Supreme Court involving the
appellate jurisdiction from Stale to United
States Courts, and the constItutIonahtv
of the Fugitive Slave law This placed
him ut once in the front rank of the lead
ing lawyers Of Wisconsin, aud gave hm
a reputation throughout the Northwts.
1t is not only regarded as ono of the
abest efi'rt of bis life, but one of The
best Arguments ever made on that eide of
tho gu, stious involved. While prsc ic.
ing his profession he wrote more or less
for the papers, particularly the Free
Democrat, which then wleldel gteat
influence in the State. He was chose
Chief Clerk Of the State Senate in 1856
In 1857 he was elected County Judge Of
Milwaukee county. His election to this
office was very strong evidence of til"
high esteem in which he was held by tie
people. lie was County Judge until
June |. 1859 when he succeeded Hon.
y. d. Smith on the bench of the Su
prcme Court, having been elected the
April previous. He resigned his position
rs Associate Justice August 10, 1864, TO
take effec; November Is, and accepted
The Lieutenant CoIoneicy of the Forty
third Wisconsin Infantry. He continued
IN service until MAJ, 1865 On r. firing
to civil life he resumed the practice OF
his profession in Milwaukee, where he
remained until September 10. 1867,
when he was appointed Associate Justice
of the Supreme Court, to succeed Judge
| Downer, who resigned.
In April, 1868, lie was elected to fill
the term which expires on the first of
| June next. During the time he has been
! justified the most sangnine expectations
os his friends He was an independent,
/ frank and noble hearted man. Tie cause
of the poor and the weak, and the cause
of justice was his cause. His death will
be deeply felt by his associates aud mem
bers of The profession he will be mourn
ed by the whole people.
The last opinion he wrote. and it is
said to be one of his best, was in the
Knorr case, involving one of the questions
discussed by hun in 1854. II will be
published in the 25ih Wisconsin Reports.
He had been sick forty nine dsys,
when pneumonia, which followed the
eryspcIas. proved fatal. The lat five
days were peaceful and painless, aud his
mind was clear.
His parents had three cEil1ren-two
sons and daughter; his parents and his
| sister survive him. He leaves wife
and three sons; the eldest about l 8 years
| of age, who have the heartfelt sympathy
OF all. He leaves city saddened by
bis death, and many thousands of mourn
ing friends in the State, and he leaves
an untarnished name. - Madison Jour
