strength. He was careful of all interests
entrusted to his care. His demeanor was
gentle, and he aided by example and pre-
cept many of the reforms of his day. he
will be kindly remembered as having done
his best to serve his fellowmen.
With Mr. Cook had no personal acqualn-
lance, but have long known of him as an an
unpretentious member of our profession: ne
was Quaker ancestry, and an an, ardent mem
Der of the free soil party. The antl-slaVeTy
agitation in 1854 brought him out as a canal
date for clerk of courts in this county, ana,
by the aid of Wings and Morrill, Democrats s,
his election and reelection were secured. At
the expiration of his term of ONCE ne ne
removed to Harrison and there resided until
his death. He was modest and unassumlng,
and, although not eminent, was a useful II
and trusted member of our profession. ;, He
was honored and respected by his FELLOW
citizens during a long life, and he leaves be-
hind an affectionate remembrance OF MS
namesand memory.
The leaves of the oak and.the willow shall
fade,
Be scattered around, and together be laid
And the young and the old, and the low
and the high
Shall moulder to dust, and together shall
die.
Let the resolutions of the Bar be spread
upon our records, and for the respect we
bear to the memory of our deceased
brothers the court will now adjourn.

AS to Ouorums.

TO the Editor of the Press:
1t would seem that the only difference be-
tween the quorum rule adopted by the
present House of Representatives, and that
of the fifty-f Congress, must arise from
the fact that the Republicans had sufficient
confidence in Speaker Reeds mathematical
accuracy and honesty to permit him to do
the counting and report the result; while
the Democrats do not quite like to trust
their Speaker to do it, but have provided
for the appointment of a couple of clerks
who know how to count, to assist and see
that it is done correctly. G. A. H.
