Mann and Judge NJ. B. Norfeet.
In brief but feeling talk Judge
Jackson also spoke to the resolution
as follows:
- feel that in the death Of Hon.
H. n. Hutton the entire state has
sustained a great loss. and this judi
cia district, without distinction,
mourns his taking away-high and
low, rich and poor without regard to
race or color.
What nobler eulogy could be given
any man than was heard on every side
at the time OF his death A good
man has left US
''He was, indeed, good man, de-
voted husband and father, kind and
thoughtful neighbor, profound law
yer, an eminent iurist, noble, gener-
Gus friend. He endeared himself to
all by the broad spirit of kindness
and genlality that he disseminated.
Friendship, morality and brotherly
love were cardinal principles with
him,
He was a prince among men, and
those characteristics of a gentleman
which he SO richly and abundantly
possessed will be remem bered by those
who knew him until memory's feeble
fingers shall fail to trace the past.
I'VE believe he has entered upon
freer and broader life, untrammeed
by the limitations of poor, weak,
earthly m0rtals.
1T can be said of him that he was
the noblest work of an ALL Wise
Creator-'a an honest man
AT the conclusion of Judge Jack
sons remarks the following resolution
was unanimously adopted by the
members OF the bar present:
