Good Stories of George Wood, a lawyer
of Many Years Ago.
There ara still some members of the
New York bar who remember George
Wood, the contemporary Of Daniel
Lord, Ogden Hoffman, William Kent,
James I. Brady and other disting uish-

scribed George Wood as being conspic-

ful power in stating his cases and his
mathematical power in argument He
was a great advocate. Frederic r. Cou-
dert some time ago told the following
story Of Mr.. Wood: Il can remember,

great lawyer. The papers were produced
and the client departed The next day
he presented himself before Mr.. Wood,
and the latter said, Fifty dollars, -
and nothing more. The client was in

pay him that sum, which he did. After
waiting awhile he asked, ''What about
my papers. Mr.. Wood ''They are not

case.
