Mr. Justice Bickerton was, in the
broad sense of the word, a seIf-made
man, and by the exercise of that de-
termination of character and earnest
ness of purpose which have character
lied his entire public and private life.
raised himself through his own efforts
from subordinate position on a sugar
plantation, to that of Associate JUS
tice on the Supreme Bench, one of the
most honorable and responsible posi-
tions in the nation.
Richard Frederick Bickertop was
born in Greenwich, London, on the
third day of April, 1874 He was,
therefore, fifty-One years Of age. His
hair and beard were snowy white.
which added to his distinguished
presence venerable appearance, we'll
becoming the dignity OF his office.
Young Bickerton lived in England
until be was about eleven wears of
age, when he emigrated with his
parents TO Melbourne, Australia. He
was there educated in the ordinary
collegiate branches, and being as q
boy fond OF adventure and sight
seeing, he began, in 1863, to travel
about the Colonies, and visited the
principal towns and cities of note.
He next decided to visit America,
and left Dunedin, New Zealand, with
small party for Victoria, 3. c., ex-
pecting TO stop on the way at Tahiti
and Hawaii. A seven days visit was
made at Tahiti, but Hawaii was pass-
ed without the ship stopping, and
Victoria was reached in April, 1863.
After short stay in that city, he
next went to San Francisco, where
he remained for about a year and
engaged in stock operations in a mod
est way.
In April, 1864, he came to Honolulu
on his return to Australia, without
any intention of remaining, but be-
coming favOrably impressed with the
country aud with the great opportuni-
ties and prospects he saw in the sugar
industry, he determined TO make it
his permanent residence and wrote his
father in Australia to that effect. Mr..
BickertOn bad letters from friends i'm
san francisco to prominent business
men in Honolulu, among which was
one to w. L. Green, who, in 1874. be-
came Premier in the Cabinet OF King
Kalakaua This gentleman afforded

nifty to learn the sugar business. bv
securing for him position on the Ka-
alaea plantation, on the island of
Oahu. After two or three wears of
practical experience, Mr.. Bickerton
became the manager; and when, soon
after this, JaniOn, Green & Co. were
going into liquidation, he gathered
together all his means and purchased

long illness from a complication of
organic troubles the disease could
not be combatted.
Judge Bickerton was an old resi-
dent of the islands and promin-
emily identified with the country
for many years. He was a useful
and honored member of the Su-
preme bench, and, up to the time
of his demise, held the position of
First Associate Justice of the Su-
preme Court. Arrangements for
his funeral will be made today.
