more than the people ought to pc asked

Mr. Hamilton said he thought an eff

Mr.. Pound said he would oe willing
to have the district give the railroad
company two and a half millions for a
clear title.
At $50 this afternoon the meeting

desire that when he died he might
be brought back to sleep among
his old friends in Scotland.
P. A. Bliss made a few remarks
upon the life and character of the
Major, and the influence of that
life upon the city and state in
which he lived for SO many years.
j. L. Meighen, who was associ-
ated with the Major for several
years in the practice of law, spoke
of his professional integrity, and
of the friendly interest that the
Major had taken in him while he
was starting in his professional
career. His association brought
him ''behind the scenes" and en-
abled him to judge from an init
mate association of his character,
and in private as we'll as public
life that same sturdy regard for
honesty and integrity was a mark
ed characteristic of bis life. He
also read extracts from a few letters
notably from Judge j. D. Elicit,
Judge R. B. Trip, Judge Bartlett
Trip, Judge E. G.. Smith, and
some others, all of which paid a
a nigh tribute to the ability of the
deceased and the high esteem in
which they held hun.
Hon. S. V. Jones of Parker, an
old friend of Maj. Dollard, wrote:
His death recalls to my mind
the long array of lawyers who were
in active practice in territorial and
early statehood days who have
"crossed the river" May | ex.
press my hearty appreciation Of
the work of Major Dollard in the
upbuilding of this state, and the
ever clear, forcible and earnest Of.
forts he put forth in maintaining
the purity of the profession he
adorned.
Judge F. D. Wicks, as a repre-
sentative of the local bar, spoke OF
his associations with the Major in
a professional way and that
whether in conjunction with him
or on opposite sides of a case he
always found him a fair and hon.
est advocate. Whenever a case
was presented to him the first
thing sought was it's justice. If
this was lacking no fee or emolu-
ment would tempt him to take the
case. He closed with an eloquent
eulogy, stating that the lawyer had
tried his last case, the books we're
closed, and the brief had been sub
mlsted to chat court of last resort.
