HARRISON CIRCUIT COURT.
Complimentary Resolutions to Judge
Mayors.

-
Mayors.
Biloxi Herald.
Judge A. G.. Mayors has convinced
our people that lie is a hustler. He
lays down the law, and then ~enfUrces
it. Jurors, witnesses, lltigants and
lawyers having business in court, are
expected to be on hand promptly, and
remain in the courtroom un til dis
charged or excused. There is no call
ing outside for %delinQuents, but a fine
is administered and the delinquent
consigned to the sheriff's hands until
the fine is paid. Jurors who failed
to report were fined twenty-five dol
lars. The county officers, with one
or two exceptions, were present to
hear the Judges charge to the grand
jury. Those who were not present
were fined ten dollars. The change
was Il new departure: Judge Mayors
simply called the attention of the
grand jury to the sections of the Code
that they were to ascertain if there
had been any violations of, and read
what changes had been made. Those
who expected to hear a half hours
reading Of the book were agreeably
disappointed, and the county officers
who had to ride from twenty to thirty
miles to hear such charge, as required
by law, wondered why in thunder
the law was eve put back on the
statute books after once having been
stricken out. The time consumed by
the Judge in charging the grand jury
was about five minutes.
A meeting of the Bar was held at
the courthouse on Friday: Gen. Jos.
II. Davis, chairman, +. S. Hewes, Sec
rotary, and the following resolutions
were adopted:
WHEREAS, The Hon. A. G. Mayors, Judge
OF the 9Th Judicial Circuit Court District of
the State of Mississippi, has presided at the
November Term, 1894, Of the circuit court of
Harrison county, by exchange with the Hon.
5. II. Terrall, and.
WHEREAS, 1t is proper that some express
sion should be given in our appreciation of
his services, therefore be it.
Resolved, First. That the firm vet conr-
teous administration by Judge Mayors of the
law while on the bench in the adjudication
OF causes, has won our respect and admiration.
Second. That we tender him our heartfelt
thanks, and express the hope that he may
long live to fill the position which he has so
adorned in the past.
Third. That these resolution be presented
in open court, by the chairman of this meet
ing, with the request that they be spread on
the minutes.
Fourth. That the Clerk be requested to fur
nish to Judge Mayors a copy of these resolu-
tons, and that the papers of the county be re-
quested to publish the same.
