pires late in November.
Justice Moody has been ill for more
than year. Despite the fact that he
had known for some time. that Justice
Mcody's retirement was inevitable, the
President said that he had accepted the
resignation with great reluctance. Mr..
Taft holds Justice Moody in high regard
as lawyer and jurSt. and feels that he
will be a great loss to the Supreme Court
bench.
When he shall have appointed success
sors to the late Chief Justice Fuller and
to Justice Moody, the President, within
two years of having taken office, will have
appointed four of the nine judges of the
Supreme Court
The resignation of United States Justice
William H. Moody occasioned little sur
prise here although his colleagues had
hoped that his health would be restored
and he would be able once more to resume
his duties on the bench. Justice Moody
has been invaded since the spring OF
1909 and during that time various rumOrs
of his retirement have cropped out, only
to be discredited. Recently it was report
ed here that he was recovering from his
malady.
His Distinguished Career.
Justice Moody has had a distinguished
public career. He was district attorney
for the eastern district of Massachusetts,
from 1890 to 1896, and served in the Fifty
sixth and Fifty-seventh Congresses. On
May 1. 1902. he assumed the duties of
Secretary of the Navy. to which Office he
was appointed by President Roosevelt
and in which he continued until appointed

1904. He was appointed as Associate JUS
tice of the Supreme Court December 3.
