Sidney and Augusta Boy Is
Oldest Lawyer in Massachusetts,.

Hon. Lewis Washington Howes,
probably the Oldest lawyer in Massa-
chusetts, celebrated his 92d birthday,
Tuesday. at his apartment in the Ho-
tel Princeton, Commonwealth avenue,
Allston.
Mr. Howes was born in Sidney, Me-,
and can trace his ancestry on both
sides back to the early colonial fami-
lies of Massachusetts. Most of his
boyhood was spent in Augusta, Me.
He received his education at the dis
trict school of his native town, Angus
ia High school, Maine Wesleyan Sem
mary and Phillips AndoVer Academy,
Massachusetts.
With his uncles, Nehemiah and How
ard B. Abbott, then the leading law
yers of Belfast, Mr.. Howes studied law
for three years, being admitted TO the
Waldo County bar at Belfast in De-
cember 1S47 and at once forming a
copartnership with his uncle, Nehe-
miah Abbott, under the title of Abbott
& Howes. Mr.. Howes remained in the
active practice of law until 1909, total
of 62 years.
In 1853 the firm of Abbott & HoWes
dissolved and Mr.. Howes continued to
practice alone until 1855, when he
moved to Rockland, Me. where he
practiced for II years, serving as dis
trict attorney of what was then called
Lincoln County and now known as
Knox County, for some eight or nine
years.
In the spring of 1867, Mr.. Howes
moved to Boston, being admitted to
the Suffolk bar May 25 of that year,
and continuing to practice there for
AZ consecutive years. For time he
was associated with the late Emery b.
Smith, under the firm name of Howes
& Smith, later becoming a senior mem
Der of the firm of Howes x Baker. For
many years he was prominently con-
nected with the trial of numerous i'm
portant cases, but of late years en-

gagged more in office business, acting
frequently as master and auditor.
For a time, Mr. Howes and John S.
Abbott formed the examining commit
tee to pass upon applicants for ad-
mission to the Suffolk bar. Mr.. Hewes
was counsel for the defendant in the
celebrated breach of promise suit of
Van Houten VS. Morse. in which a YER
diet of $40, 600 was finally set aside by
the court on exceptions.
Mr. Howes has always been consid-
cred an able lawyer and advocate, well
grounded in the principles of practice
and legal learning and in the capact-
ties of master and auditor has dis
played the most excellent judgment,
broad knowledge and sound common
sense.
In politics he has been an ardent
Republican since the organization or
the party in 1856. In 1888 and 1884 he
was Representative from Cambridge
and was a member of the judiciary
Committee both years, where he was
the author of two important acts, one
giving the Superior Court jurisdiction
in equity,
In June, 1851, Mr.. Howes married
Miss Clementine e. Allen of Farming
ton, Me-, an aunt of the famous opera
singer. Nine. Lillian Nordica, MIS-
Howes died in 1880 and on Jan. |, 1885,
Mr.. Howes married Miss Della A. var
ney, who had been teacher In the
Boston public schools. Mrs. HoWes Is
still living, and a married daughter
also makes her home with Mr. ana
Mrs. Howes at the Hotel princeton.

1t is learned that the rabbit which
had for some time past gladdened CD
the hearts of some of the cottagers
and given a touch of wild life to Ham
monds Grove and vicinity, is no more,
and that there is more or less regret
at his untimely taking off. He was
quite tame, and his antics in the vi
entity of the cottages in the grove
were for a time a source of amuse-
mept to the cottagers. 1t came to
pass, however, that he developed a
fondness for the vegetables which
some of the cottagers cultivate in
their Sx10 gardens, and that proved the
cause for his undoing, for one morn

(Continued from Saturday)

And so the coroner's jury found
that John II. Hanska came to his
death from a knife wound at the
hands of Lawrence Wade or persons
unknown, and recommended that the
said Lawrence Wade be held TO await
action of the grand jury. He went
back to the Tombs under guard
straight. clean, stalwart figure of a
young man, seeming, in contrast V n
the court room lawyers, the shySters,
the followers of sensation, like an
eagle who has been captured by SPAR
row hawks and buzzards. He did not
look at Constance as he marched
away, nor she at him, and the report
ers must needs conjecture what hap
pened between them in their two in
terviews through the bars of the
Tombs They could not know how
bravely and humanely simple were
the talks between this man and this
woman.
Here and now, the corporal pres
ence of Lawrence Wade shall fade
for a time from this story. He is like
every jevne premier in every tale of
crime and mystery. Although the
matters related concern him most of
all, he is still the least active charac-
ter involved; he has least to do with
the final solution of events. BY de-
vices which / consider unfair to the
reader, i might keep Lawrence Wade
in the foreground; l might even play
intruder at some of his bravely pa
thetic meetings with Constance Han
ska. But all this would have nothing
to do with my story. His hands are
strong, his heart is firm, his judg-
ment clear; yet his fate lies in weaker
hands and hearts and judgments.
You have, of course, concluded by
this time that he is innocent. Per
haps you are right; the unfolding of
this tale will tell Leave him now in
the Tombs, to play his own native res
OiutiOn against the forces of darkness
and to gather what consolation he
may from the visits of his Lady of
Sorrows and of her little golden girl
comrade.
The next day an aviator accomplish
ed something new in the advertising
annals of the air. He eloped by aero
plane. 1t is true that he had no need
of clipping the famiiy-in-law being as
willing as his actress-bride. The
young couple merely chose that meth
cd as a way of starting prosperously
on the road of life. But the news
papers, in view of this dazzling pic
ture-story, inquired not too closely re-
garding motives. And scarcely had
news of this event given way TO i'm
pressions of special writer's. when a
train went over a trestie in Connect
cut. BY the time the papers had fin
ished with this, the Hanska case had
dwindled to twO-inch items, single
head. The district attorney delayed,
the grand jury delayed, the police de-
layed, while the forces of Martin Nc
Gee combed New York and New Eng
land for evidence bearing upon the
life and career of Lawrence Wade.
But one more glimpse OF Lawrence
before we leave him; and here let me
quote Inspector MCGEE. Entering his
private Office in a state of suppressed
irritation bordering on fury, the IN
spector met his doorman. Long con-
tact had given his inferior the priv
