A FEW WORDS BY JUDGE LEONARD
When Mr.. COlvin had finished, Judge Leonard
spoke few words expressive OF his high personal
esteem for the late deceased. He saw him only
short time ago, and, though then in feeble health
ne expected 10 be able to resume this Fall his Judi
cla duties. His death only showed how mortal
they were, and how vain were the hopes of man.

iact as far as 1929, he had enjoyed the inti-
mate acquaintance OF Judge Hogeboom. He had
achieved high and honorable dstir ction, but his
career th0ughOut had been that OF unninchng pro-
blty He was u brilliant ornament to the bar and
the bench. At the conclusion of his remarks he or
dered an adjournment OF the Court to be entered
