Of his decisions in the celebrated
Dartmouth College Gaze We are all
familiar, and I will not take up your
time in reviewing it. a worthy note
of interest about this case is that
Daniel Webster, then the foremost
orator in this country, was before the
bench in that case.
"The case of Dartmouth College
is the hulwark of our Incorporated
i stitu;ionS for public education and
of those chartered tndowmemts for
diffuSive public charity, which are
not only ornaments, but among the
strongest defenses, of a nation. It.
raises them above the reach of party
aud occasional prejudice, and gives
assurance to the hope that the men
who now live may be associated
with the men who are to live here
after by works cOnsecrated TO exalt
and refine the people, and destined,
if they endure, TO unite successive
generations by the elevating senti-
ment Of Ii n national character"
In 1882, when Marshall was near

The name of so great a man as Mr..
Chief Justice Marshall is however
one that needs no eulegy other than
the efulgeuce of its own fame.
Search the biographies of the grea,
lawyers and jurists of the world and
you will find ncne that surpassed, |

talents and power.
A hundred years have gone since
he set upon the bench for the first
time as Chief Justice of the Supreme
Court of the United States; a hun
dred years since the marvellous music
uf his voice first reSOunded through
the Supreme Court chambers as one
of It's Justices. None are among us
now who ca recall among life's most
cherished memories that palIid face,
lllumined with intelligence and
watchfulness for justice to all alike;
the last lingering witness OF his as
sumption Of the duties of Chief
Justice have passed on and TO the
generations now on earth he is but a
name and a statute enshrined in
fame's holy temple with Scion, Coke,
Blackstone Kent and the master
minds who companioned him as pa
triOts of our early national life.
What he has done has long been
a part of our nations history: and
what he has said is constantly read
by every awytr who aspires - in
terpret Alright the laws OF his native
land.
