Death of Highly Esteemed Member Of
the Bar.--Mr. Amos F. Musselman one of
the old school lawyers and well known figure
about the Baltimore city courts and also at
Towson, died at the City Hospital last Sunday
of age and had never married. The body was
removed to Lehman Place, Lancaster county,
Pa, and was inferred in Woodward Hill Gene
terry there Tuesday afternoon.
Mr.. Musselman was quaint character and
while he was profound student and scholar
u0 was Cdlltu cCCcuIlC ny tuOSC WIZ AuCW
him. He was born in Strasburg. Pa, where
he prepared for college at the Strasburg Acad-
envy. He entered Dickinson College in 1913
and got his B. A. degree in 1851 and his A. M.
in 1854. In 1851 and 1852 he was an assistant
instructor at Dickinson Grammar School, and
later tutor in the college. He was admitted
to the bar in Cumberland county, Pa, in the
early Sos.
He moved to Baltimore in 1855, and had an
Office at 112 East Lexington street and room
at 800 CORTLAND street for years. The aged
lawyer had many peculiar traits. One OF them
was an aversion to wearing outside shirts in
his later years. He said he had asthma and
to wear white shirts would only make the
malady worse. His dingy little office on Lex
ington street was more like an old curiosity
shop than a lawyers quarters. The windows
were grimy with the dust of years. and the
articles in the room had not been brushed in
long time. When Mr.. Musselman first took
the office he began to accumulate newspapers.
He piled them up on his desk and when be
could get no more on the desk he bought
another desk and filled that full of papers
and books. At the time of his death there was
but little room in the Office, there being so
many desks, tables and boxes piled high with
papers and pamphlets. 1t is tradition that
he never parted with newspaper, and the
appearance of the room bore this out.
He was great lover of books and constant
reader, his hobby being study He was one
of the best posted men in Baltimore on hOmeo-
pathy, having taken up the study early in life
and followed Hahnemann's course until that
great physicians death. He was most ex-
cellent Latin and Greek scholar, and as a
translator in these languages had but few
equals. He had good practice especially as
an associate to argue cases in the Court OF
Appeals, and was well-rounded lawyer. He
was close student of general literature. and
had knowledge of the classics that was at the
same time wide and correct. There were few
subjects with which he was not familiar, more
especially in the history of this country. His
health il The last five years had not been good
and be had not been actively engaged in his
profession.
Mr.. Musselman was Mason and was atten-
tive to his church duties, being an attendant
at the Protestant Episcopal Church of the
Messiah, although he had been reared a Luth-
eran.
Deceased is survived by several brothers and
sisters, all of whom are residents of Pennsyl.
vania, where they are prominent socially and
otherwise.
