SPOONER DARLING & FLAHERTY.
Have Just moved into their new
law office, consisting of three elegant
rooms in the new brick. over the First
National Bank of Morris. The first
in the firm is l.. c. Spooner, who came
to this place from Litchfield in 1881,
and although quite young man, he
has had an extensive law practice in
the District, Supreme and United
States courts, and has had better sue
cess with his cases and trials in court,
than any other lawyer of this district,
or in this section of country. He has
always been sanguine and fearless in
his business transactions and was
never known to yield an important
point or surrender a case where more
progress was in the least possible. AS
collector, those who have given him
their business of all classes for years,
have no hesitancy in saying that he
is by far the best in the state, and the
large amount of paper collected, with
the increasing amount being received
for collection, shows for itself where
it receives the best care
and the most careful attention.
He has for some time satisfactorily
acted as the attorney and reporter of
five or six of the largest Commercial
and Collecting Agencies established
in the East and West, does the col
Letting in this place and vicinity for
the largest machine and manufactur-
ing establishments in this and other
states and handles the collections of
nearly all the firms selling machinery
in this and the adjoining counties,
doing all this in such a manner as to
always please those who have en-
trusted him with their business. He
has but few if any equals in natural
business push or tact to strike in the
right place at the right time to realize
his demands from an absconding
debtor.
Geo. Z. Darling the next of the firm,
is an old resident attorney of Morris,
and for several years successfully
managed the large collections of the
Bank of Morris to its profit and entire
satisfaction, thereby exhibiting the
necessary legal skill for this vexing
line Of troublesome business. AS an
industrious business man, Mr.. OAR
ling is as he has the reputation of be-
ing, genuine success, which has
been fully established by a long ex-
perience and actual service in the
field. He has thorough knowledge
fall the best methods used in making
what are called "hard collections"
and is well posted upon the value of
all commercial paper circulating in
this region of country, and can in this
respect separate the wheat from the
chaff upon sight. He has for the last
four or five years dealt quite largely in
real estate and mortgage foreclosures,
abstracting titles, and has had large
amount of conveyancing for home
and nonresident customers and CHI
ents, and probably possesses more in
formation in these departments USE
full to client than any other person
in Stevens county. He has the, only
set of abstract books in the county.
Upon all matters of insurance and in
surance laws, he will be found to be
excellent authority.
S. A. Flaherty is the youngest
member of this leading firm of
lawyers. He came to Norris as a
student i'll Spooner's Office about
two and a half years ago,
and by applying himself
closely to study, fitted himself for ad-
mitance to practice nearly year be-
fore the time usually taken by stu
dents in preparing for examination.
He is not only learned in theory of
law but is versed in actual practice as
well.
AS working firm none could be
better prepared in their special or
the general line of practice than
Spooner, Darling & Flaherty. They
have in their combination all the legal
elements and qualifications necessary
for successful prosecution of their
law and collection business. They
have roomy office of three apart
ments, fine library of the most valu-
able books, two large fire proof safes for
the safe keeping of all papers entrusted
to their care. AS firm they have the
implicit confidence ofall for whomthey
have transacted business.
