BY the Court
When this order had been properly "en-
tered Colonel Fuller arose to make a
few remarks the substance of which was
that he had the freedom of the city for
all present, and guaranteed that no one
He said that on account of the number
of excellent speakers present he was go
| ing to deny himself the pleasure of MAX
ing a speech. At this there was great
uproar and the enthusiasm of the diners
could not be restrained. The Colonel
then proposed the health of Chancellor
Magic which was drunk standing.
The Chancellor was received with pro-
longed and enthusiastic applause. When
quiet was resumed he said:-.I believe l
have been inveigled into this situation by
a little misunderstanding. assumed that
no one was to address you in an i'm
promptu manner unless notified before

Iaughter) 1 received no such notifca-
ton. / am exceedingly gratified to be
with you tonight and to recognize the ad-
vantage of the organization of the bar,
and when I say bar it is not to be inter-
preted in a double sense.
s'The Bar Association should aid in the
elevation of the bar and the recognition
of its proper position in the aid of human
progress. The Bar Association is an
aid to the courts in realizing that justice
which we all SEEK The Chancellor con-
cluded with the expressed hope that the
Hudson County Bar Association would
become a greater power than ever in ac-
complishing the work for which it is Or
ganized.
Colonel Fuller again came to the front
with the remark you see before you a
number of bright men, including myself.
We have with us a man who makes
Judges. We had hoped before he made a
Chief Justice he would have waited until
he had come here and heard what we
had to say. We must say, however, that
he did appoint man who knew a
legal proposition when he ran up against
it,, He then called upon the Governor.
who was received with cries of Long
may he live" He mildly gave Colonel
Fuller piece of his mind because he had
promised him that he should not be called
upon to make a speech.
q am here tonight merely to look OF
and help honor the Chancellor" con-
tinued the Governor. 'I am gglad the
Bar of Hudson County has spoken in
a double sense. 1t must be gratifying
to the Chancellor to have such dis
tinguished gathering thus honor him.
The Governor expressed his thanks for
the privilege of being present and said
that he was not ashamed to be guest of
the Hudson County Bar Association. The
legal profession, he said. was one of
the most important professions of life,
and he spoke eulogistieally of the New
Jersey lawyer.
! Prolonged cheers greeted General
| Woodford when he arose to speak When
these had quieted down he said:-'It is
certainly pleasure to be here tonight
/ ~.
give you cordial and hearty greeting to
this city. We might think it a little
cheeky in you to come over here. You
have made laws which take from us our
wealth. You have taken all our cases
which pay US fat fees, and last night
your Governor scooped in our wealthiest
citizen. We are profoundly glad you
know a good thing when you see it and
( have come TO New York for your din
ner.
You have done a good many things
we might profit by, and if we don't look
out you will annex US on one side and
/ Philadelphia on the other. Some of our
Judges will be glad to keep you with
I us. To the younger men of your asso-
citation 1 want to say, be true to your
/ clients and faithful to every interest in
I trusted to you. Remember that no good
/ lawyer can ever afford to mislead a jury
/ or misstate point of law to the Court.
No body of men are more conscientious

1 terests intrusted to them as lawyers. We
4 set a high standard, and 1t is the pur-
/ pose of the Bar to secure justice and
/ maintain honor"
Job Hedges was introduced az "the last
! Mayor of old New York" He put the
/ diners in good humor at once by saying
| that Colonel Fuller had told him also
| that he would not have to make speech,
but knowing Colonel Fuller as he did he
had come prepared to speak "and God
/ willing, I will deliver it.
There is propriety in you gentlemen
! coming here to dine" Mr.. Hedges Eent
on. I'VE have used Taylor's Hotel many
time. l don't think you come here in
a 'chesty' frame of mind. Only New York
| men are 'chesty.'
MFR. Hedges sat beside Justice Collins
and he said he had never been so neal
a judge before. Il will not be afraid of a
Jersey judge again. he went on. They
