voters of the county, and improper and
unlawful. and a hindrance and impedi-

ballots in the same style and manner in
which the same is certified to the SAID

said style is guaranteed by the laws and
statutes of Maryland. Judge Revell

End of Term For Which BE
Was Elected Sketch
Of His Career.

of His Career.
Beneath an excellent half-tone cut OF
Judge James Revell, of the Fifth Judicial
| Circuit, of MARYLAND, today's Baltimore
San contains the following sketch
Judge James Revell was born in An
napolis, February 8, 1881. and conse-
quently passed the constitutional age
limit OF 70 years last February. But the
General Assembly at the session of 1900
passed joint resolution as follows
" That in view of his ability, integ-
rity. wisdom, experience and sound legal
knowledge. the Hon. James Revell be
and he hereby is continued in the office
OF Associate Judge OF the Fifth Judicial
Circuit of Maryland for the remainder OF
the term for which he was elected" That
term expires in November, 1908.
"Judge Revell's parents were Martin
F. and Mary A. Revell, natives OF Fair
fax county, Va. James Revell gradu-
ated at St. Johns College in IS4S and
studied law with Frank H. Stockett.
From 1850 to 1886 he was private secre
tary to Governors Lowe and Lyon. In
1859 he was elected States Attorney for
Anne Arundel and was continued in Of
hNS W AS7SANNNiOh iOA Si6 hASSh 1SatSs
"During this time Mr.. Revell was en-
gagged ia many notable cases, but the
most famous of them all and the one
which won for him great reputation was
the trial of Mrs. Elizabeth G.. Wharton
for the murder OF Gen. William S. Ket-
chum, on June 28. 1871. The trial lasted
forty.three days and resulted in an ac-
quittal. In 1872 Mrs. Wharton was again
tried. this time upon charge OF poison
ing Eugene Van Ness, and the jury fail
ed to agree. After MIR. Revell retired
from the Office of States Attorney he
continued in an exceedingly large and
important practice.
"Judge Revell has always been identi-
fed with the industries of Annapolis and
in every plan to improve and benefit the
town. He has always been an uncom-
promising adherent Of Democratic prin.
ciples and strong sympathIzer with the
South and held to the Southern construc-
ton of the Constitution. From 1883 to
1892 Judge Revell was City Counsellor
of Annapolis. He resigned that Office to
accept the place which he now holds of
Associate Judge, to which he was APP
pointed by Governor Brown to fill the
place made vacant by the resignation of
the late Judge Charles b. Roberts, who
became Chief Judge upon the death OF
Judge Oliver Miller. In the fall of 1893
Judge Revell was elected for full term
of fifteen years, which will expire No
vember 8, 1908. Judge Revell, in 1860,
married Miss jamie Cowan, of Annapolis.
