Resolutions were offered in court
at the opening session ON the death OF
Major Edward Y. Goldsborough, who
was for many years a member of the
bar. The resolutions tell of the events
in the life of Major Goldsborough. The
/ response to the resolutions was made
| by Judge Worthington.
The committee on resolutions was
composed of Milton G. Urner, ST.,
| Clayton 0. Keedy, J. Rohrback, d.
Princeton Buckley and Frank L. Ston-
er. The following, spoke in behalf of
the Frederick Bar: Milton G. Urner,
! ST., Charles M. Gilpin, Albert S.
Brown, Leo Weinberg and John Frau
els Smith.
"The very appropriate memorial of
| Major Edward Y. Goldsborough which
the committee has just now report
| ed, as well as the remarks of mem
| bers of the Bar respecting his exem-
| plary life and character, has the cord
ial approval of the court. Because of
his duties as an officer of the United
States District Court for the District
of Maryland Major Goldsborough had
not, for good many years past, been
actively engaged in the practice cf
his profession in this court, and TO
the younger generation of lawyers he
was scarcely identified with the pro-
fession at all, but there are present
members of the bar, who remember
when Major Goldsborough served this
county as States Attorney for four
years, from 1864 to 1868, and in an
old copy of the Rules of Court print
ed in 1868, Major Goldsborough's
| name stands in the list of practicing
attorneys. Those whose names stood
above his were lawyers who are now
only a memory. They were: Joseph
NJ. Palmer, Richard H. Marshall,
William J. Ross, William P. Maulsby,
Sr., Samuel Tyler, Grayson Eichelber-
ger, James McSherry, Sr., William b.
Nelson, Jacob M. Kunkel, Michael p.
Gallagher, Ross Johnson, Frederick J..
Nelson, George A. Hanson, John
Richie, Ephriam Carmack and
Charles w. Ross.
in later copy of the Rules Of
Court printed in the year 1890 Major
Goldsborough's name stands fifth N
the list Those who preceded him in
order of admission were Frederick j.
| Nelson, Ephriam Carmack, Charles ".
Ross and Col. Charles E. Trail. All OF
these have some time since rested
from their labors and the death of
| Major Goldsborough therefore, marks
the passing of the Oldest member IF
the bar in point of years Of service.
Major Goldsborough' duties as United
States Marshal, as United States Com
missioner, and as Referee in Bank
ruptcy all had to do with judicial adj
ministration, and so, while not often
engaged in this court, he was still
pursuing in some manner his chosen
profession. In the several capacities
| in which he acted he performed his
