Following are the resolutions passed

Beyond the allotted years of life, on

Wingate peacefully passed away. sur
rounded by loving friends and rela-
tives. He was brother member of
our profession. who in high degree
merite6 our respect, admiration and
esteem.
General Wingate was born in Boone
county. Kentucky, on the goth of jan
uary, 1922. He came of revolutionary
ancestry, both paterually and mater
nally, his grandfather in the latter
line having been an officer in the re-
evolutionary war. When quite young.
his father, John Wingate. rnmoved to
Louisville, and shortly afterwards we
find him, with the private instincts of
the pioneer. settling in Gallatin coun-
ty, Illinois. Young Wingate at this
time was twelve years of age. The
educational system which has since
reached such perfection was, at that
time. in its infancy, aud his opportuui-

schools. After receiving a common
school education, he was sent to Col

stood very high IN his profession.
Prior to leaving Indiana. be was adj
mitted to the practice OF the law. and
thereupon returned to Illinois. locating
In Mt. Vernon Jefferson county, in
1913. His zeal, ambition and indus
try soon brought him business. and UNI
til the year 1853 he successfully prac-
.iced his profession in that and adioiu-
ing counties. At that time. 10 the
circuit ia which Mt. Vernon was loca-
ted were many of the most distiu-
guished Attorneys in Illinois. and In
his varying practice he acted with or
contended against men who attained
widespread reputation. such as Lyman
Trumbull. Gustavus koensr, Abraham
Lincoln, the Underwocds. aud a host
of other iIlustrious names. The SUI
