the '10s he went to Arizona and in 1891
he received the appointment of chief of
police of Tombstone While occupying
that position he had frequent encounters

In 1850 he was elected to he bench of the
Supreme court of California, and in 1857
succeeded TO the chief justiceship. He was
a brilliant lawyer but violent temper led

friends claimed that Terry fired upon his
antagonist before the word was given.
