JUDGE LONG
PASSED AWAY
ONE OF THE MOST CONSPICUOUS
FIGURES IN HISTORY OF FLOR.
IDA EXPIRED AT LATE HOUR AT
STATE CAPITAL.

Judge Richard Call Long, one of the
most conspicuous figures in the his
tory of Florida, died a few days since
at his home, Tallahassee, Fla, after a
long illness, aged SO years. He was
the grandson Of Governor Call, and
the son of Mrs. Lien Call Long and
NJ. A. Long. He was married in 1874
to Miss Cora Gamble, daughter of
James Gamble. His wife, a daughter
who is Mrs. Hunt, and a son, hichard
Long, survive him.
Deceased was a lawyer by profess
sion, a practice he took up and mas
tered after the civil war Although
but a boy when the unpleasantness
broke out, he from the first expressed
an eagerness to enter the army and
enlisted April II, 1868, as a member
of Company C, Fifth Battalion, Flor
ida Cavalry. At Olustee and Natural
Bridge he acted as courier with much
credit. After the war he selected the
profession Of law, studying with de-
termination and removed to Texas,
where for several years he followed
the law. He returned to Florida,
however, and removed to Tallahassee,
where his recognized ability soon
placed him in the front ranks of the
bar and in political affairs. OF his
eloquence a Tallahassee paper said:
He spoke forcibly, his public utter
ances being markeu by unusual bold
ness and strength. He was a man
who thought for himself, and who ex-
pressed his thoughts in a manner that
was his own
Products of his pen were numerous
and interesting, for to his qualities
already mentioned were added, as the
paper stated, keen observation,
humor, and, withal, the sympathy that
enabled him to enter into the life OF
those who came into the range of his
acquaintance. OF his character 1t is
not easy to write. We think of his re-
markable personality his buoyancy OF
spirit, his frankness of speech, his
mental vigor, his rich endowment of
talent. But, somehow, we think most
just now of his kind heart, so quick to
feel for others; the kind hand. so
quick to aid; the generous apprecia-
ton of good, and the patient endur-
ance of the long years of suffering"
