David Dudley Field.

The name Of DAVID DUDLEY FmbD IL
moro widely known than that Of any other
American lawyer of our day whose dstino-
tion Is wholly due to work done In his pro-
fessiou. For upward Of fifty years he
was the most prominent man in the United
States. occupied with the reform Of the
law. Great and commanding as was his
success as a legal practitioner and advo-
cate, his chief title to fame rests upon his
service to the Englsh-speaking world In
simplifying the methods Of procedure In
the courts.
His labors in this field began early in life.
and ended only with his death. He brought
to the work degree OF enthusiasm. ability.
and learning very rare In the advocacy Of
any purely professional reform. and never
before sustained In active exercise by any
one to so venerable an age. His Code Of
Civil Procedure. originally adopted In New
York. was the model OF similar codes In q
score Of other States. and has been copied
In British colonies in all parts Of the globe.
Its essential features are embodied in the
existing system Of procedure in the High
Court OF Justice In England. All over the
world. wherever the prevailing jurispru-
dence has had its origin In the English
common law. the form and manner OF con-
Quoting itigations and transacting the
business of the courts are due largely to the
influence Of DAVID DUDLEY FIELD.
He was proud OF his attainments in pro-
noting the codiflcation OF the law, and he
had good reason to be proud. We desire to
record and acknowledge with emphasis and
gratitude the debt which the people OF this
country owe to DAVID DUDLEY FIELD for
all he did to make less arduous the path
of the litigant through the courts. from
summons to Judgment.
While codes OF law in the English lam
guage continue to exist. the name OF DAVID
DUDLEY FIELD will never be forgotten.

After due consideration it is thought
best to remove the county meeting of

As Bro. Thompson, State Lecturer, will

WI should by all means have the meet

after considering the matter Acresville
Slb-Alliance, with which our meeting
was to be held, favors the removal to
Washington, where it is possible to
give Bro. Thompson a larger crowd,
