Obituary Notes.
CHIEF JUSTICE GREEN
At Atlantic City, last Thursday
| Henry Green of Easton, Chief Justice
of the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania
I died suddenly.
For many years Justice Green ha'
| been sufferer from rheumatism anC
| his physicians state that this had 81
| weakened his constitution that he wa
| unable TO withstand an attack o
| uraemia, which was hastened by a re
| cent cold.
| He was elected to fill vacancy in tn
/ Supreme Bench in 1880, and only las
| January succeeded the chief justiceshil
upon the retirement Of Judge Sterrett
and it was the general hope and expeC
| tation that he would be able to roun'
out his full term of Office, which woul'
have expired in January, 1902. A
chief Justice on May 30 of the presen
| wear, he rendered a notable decision sus
| tanning the rights of the legislature an
the people of the State and overturnint
| the action of Gov. in attempting to vet
| the resolution submitting constitutions
amendments providing for ballot reform
/ to the action of the voters. In hi
| opinion Justice Green made it mos
| clear that the governors action was
gross usurpation Of the rights of th
| Legislature and the people, and earned
| the gratitude and increased respect o
| the latter by his stand in behalf.of thei
| constitutional privileges. Justice Greel
| was lifelong Republican, having beel
| delegate to the first National conven
| ton of the party in 1856. He was
high-minded, genial man, and his deatt
| will be sincerely mourned by many, moi
| only on account of his valuable public
| services, but also because of his man,
| excellent personal qualities,
| BY his death Judge McCollum Of
| Montrose becomes Chief Justice, an'
| the vacancy in the Bench will be file,
by appointment by Gov. Some, till tn
| general election of next year
