A representative of The Statesman
called upon Judge Richards yesterday
and asked him if it was true that he in
tended to resign. The judge stated the
report was correct, and that he would
today tender his resignation to take eff
feet on the 2Sth.
The judge was asked what reasons
influenced him to take this course. In
reply he stated that he felt that the
public should be given some reason for
his action. Continuing, he said:
1.-TWO years ago was urged to &C
cept the nomination for this office,
with the understanding that there were
certain reforms to be accomplished,
which many deemed necessary for the
welfare of the public and the bar. Feel
ing that the isstiss involved were most
important, l accepted the nomination
in the spirit in which it was offered.
Believing that the real purpose for
which was placed in official position
has now been accomplished, and, as
never did and do not now desire to hold
office for the sake livelihood, 1 feel
justified in returning the trust reposed
in my keeping two years ago.
81 fully appreciate the generous and
loyal support of the bar in the discharge
of my judicial duties, as well as the
kind spirit of cooperation which has
been manifested by the public at large,
and my heart is full of gratitude for
the consideration shown me."-States-
