JUDGE G~REsHAM's REMARKS.
Upon taking the chair, Judge Gresham spoke
is follows:
Gentlemen of the Bar: We are assembled to pay
,ur tribute of respect to an eminent member of our
profession. Although Mr.. Hendricks occupied many
Ugh stations il. the State aud Nation, finally the second
highest in the gift of the people, all of which he filled
with distinguished ability, he never lost his fondness
for his chosen profession. His triumphs at the bar
were, perhaps, fully as satisfactory as his triumphs
in the conflicts of politics. Twill not on this occasion
speak of his public service. further than to say that
intellectually he was the peer of the ablest
men of his time, and that he never used
official position for private gain-that even in the
minds Of his political alyersaries no stain attaches to
his private or official integrity. In capacity for rapid
absorption Of a case. arrangement Of facts in their
proper relation, and in the application of principles to
facts, Mr.. Hendricks greatly excelled. While he
justly stood in the front rank of the profession. per-
baps his real sphere was that of the advocate. In this
