of involving the family in additional
disgrace, The physician disavows any
desire to profit by settlement of the

member of the supreme court of the
supreme court Of the United States,
Massachusetts and Ohio will be com
pelled to take seats Of honor a little be-

iurist from Massachusetts, upon 1T.
During the last four years it has had
two. New York s sons have been on
the bench sum of lo2 years, while
