"'a"E OF the prominent attor-

! ana IL seemed to be the unani-
nous sentiment of the attorneys
present that tho bar of Vermont should
give some expression of their appre-

Versary OF MS honorable and useful
Ire, and as a token OF respect for him
personally. as well as officially.
1t then occurred to US that there were
two others, who had long been asso-
clated with Judge Rowell in his great
and good work, whom the bar of Yer

namely Judge II. Henry Powers and
James M. Tyler. These three honor
able gentlemen were all born the same
year, reared under similar environ
ments and aspfred to and achieved the
same great goal OF usefulness And II
seemed to us to he fitting that we
should include in this token of respect
Judge Powers and Judge Tyler, and

slowing some of our earthly gifts in

a man is dead and gone. are no con
ISOLATION to the man who earned IT,
They serve like written history. as a
guide board. to point out the way that
other men may go.
We have not come together to bo-
stow gifts of wealth as our token OF
respect. but we come with greetings q,
esteem to our honorable guests that
wealth can not buv We have come
as It were, with the first flowers OF
spring. to spread rarlands in tho natb-
way OF our honorable guests as they
pass onward and inward
