A Just Tribute to the Memory of a
Worthy Man

A meeting Of the members of the Bar
and officers of the County Court of Au-
gusta was held in the Court House Thurs
day. Nov. 90 n, 1888, to adopt suitable
resolutions upon the death of George
Harlan, who for many years had been an
officer of that Court as well as the Corpo-
ration Court and Supreme Court OF APP
psaIs Maj. Marshall Hanger was called
to the CHAIR and William A. Burnett
appointed Secretary.
Geo. Nj. Harrison, Esq offered the pre-
amble and resolutions printed below and
spoke of the esteem in which Mr.. Harlan
was held by all who knew him. Judge
Grattan seconded then and spoke at
some length of the public. private
and religious character of the deceased
and of Mr.. Harlan as one who had fulfill
ed all of his varied offices with fidelity. The
following preamble and resolutions were
then unanimously adopted
WHEREAS, George Harlan departed this life
on the 9th day of August, 1888, in the
6Sth year of his age; and whereas many years
of his life were spent as minister in the
Courts of Justice, and in intimate association
er and fitting that an expression of the esteem
in which he was held should be placed upon
the records of the Court which he served SO
long and SO faithfully.
George Harlan lived as long as the measure of
strength given by the Creator to men usually
permits them to be useful, and during all the
years of mis- life, in which he was known to
the present members of the Bar of Staunton,
he employed all of his strength in the service
Of ouhlic and in the service of God and
of his church.
George Harlan was born in Petersburg,
Virginia. In early life he adopted and thor
oughly learned the printers trade and was en-
ployed for many years in the offices OF the
Stanton Spectator and the VINDIcAToR. AT
the breaking out of the Mexican war, he en-
listed in the company of Captain kenton Har-
per and served during the war with the Vir-
einia Regiment, in that Company. At a pc
riod anterior to the admission of any present
active member thereof to the bar of Staunton,
with single exception he was ministerial
officer of the Courts held in Staunton, and
during all that time, aud down to his death.
he served the public in many capacities AS
Deputy Sheriff, Jailor, Justice of the Peace,
Notary Public, Coroner, and always honestly,
efficiently and faithfully.
For many years he was a member of the
Methodist Episcopal Church and an officer of
the church. and his life, walk and converse
ton was living illustration of the doctrines
of Christianity.
It was further resolved that the Judge of
the County Court of Augusta County and the
Judge of the Hastings Court of Staunton be
requested to direct these resolutions to be
spread upon the minutes of the Court, and
that copy thereof be sent to the family of
the deceased, and also published in the news
papers of the City of Stanton.

 NEW YORK, Oct. 26-The examination of James E. Bedell, the forger, lately employed by the law firm of Shipman, Barlow, Larocque &S Choate, in the suit brought by his former employees against the Bank of the State of New York, was proceeded with before Judge Barrett in the supreme court He finally consented to answer questions put to him. He was examined to twenty-eight checks which were made out by Charles M Dodge, cashier of the law firm, at Bedell's request, payable at the Bank of the State of New York, upon the order of various parties, and bearing the signature of some member of the firm. He acknowledged having not only in- dorsed his own name upon each of the checks, but also the names of the persons to whose order the cheeks were drawn. As far as he could remember he received consideration for each check in the shape of money or checks. Witness said he had no authority from the plaintiffs to deposit the checks or collect the money Some of the checks, witness said, were cashed by James 6. Henry, the lawyer who figured ill some of his transactions Henry, he said, paid the face value on them. The checks regarding which the witness was examined aggregated S1SOOO0. Witness be- came faint, and at his request the examination was adjourned.
