The late Thomas c. O'Sullivan OF New
York, Judge of the court of special SEES
sions in that city, was an example OF
what perseverance and energy will do
for young man. He started life in
the town OF NVinooski without many oil
the advantages which fall TO many boys
of his time, and he was further handi-
capped early in life by the loss of one
arm in an accident in factory where
he was employed earning money enough
to go to school. Yet with great force
of will the young man went ahead and
secured an education, after which he
taught school for a time, finally going
into the office of Governor Pingree at
Hartford to sturdy for tine law profess
sion. How well the young man builded
his career is shown by his success in
New York City, where he located at the
age of 80 years, rising in his profession
until he occupied a position on the bench
in the court of special sessions and re-
tanning the respect of all Judge 0'Sul.
