Whereas, Our honorable Judge

Resolved, That at the sever

tanned between the Judge of this

personal and professional loss
which cannot be we'll expressed
in words.
1.-THE regard and esteem which
have grown up during the long
period of Judge Stockslager's
service on the bench, founded
upon his great personal worth
and professional attainments, and
his patient and kindly considera-
ton of our efforts in behalf of
litigants in the great number of
cases submitted to him by us,
compels us to attempt some ex-
preston of our sentiments and
cordial wishes for his continued
welfare and happiness.
THAT we recognize in the Hon.
G. o. Stockslager q man of ster-
ling integrity, great impartial
ity, uniform courtesy and high
judicial ability and we sincerely
regret that the time has come
when as lawyers and district
judge.we must part company, but
in doing so we extend to him our
kindest and heartiest congratula-
tons upon his exaltation to the
high position of justice of the
supreme court, feeling confident
that his modesty, integrity and
ability will prove an ornament to
the supreme court of this state
and q blessing to all the people
Of our commonwealth.
THAT in the severance of the
relations between the bench and
oar of the district court which
have existed so long and so
agreeably, we feel the loss of an
upright, conscientious Judge, an
and genial social com
panion, and one in whose pro-
notion we all take a local pride
md we wish him in his new field
If labor the same measure of APP
probation and success that he
las enjoyed on the district bench
