JUDGE FOUSHEE DIES AT
DURHAM AFTER LONG ILLNESS.
Was Judge of Superior Court of North
Carolina From 1911 to 1918.

Durham, Jan. 31.-Judge Howard A.
Foushee, judge of the Superior court
os North Carolina from 1911 to 1913, Il
lawyer and jurist of marked ability.
died here early this morning, after an
illness of several weeks, at the age Of
forty-six. Judge Foushee retired from
the bench about. three years ago owing
to i'll health. He collapsed at the
Myrtle Hawkins trial at Henderson
vile, the strain incidental to that trial
being primarily responsible for the Ill
health that had been his portion since
that time. Three years ago he was
operated on at the Johns Hopkins
hospital, Baltimore, returning there
for. another operation year later.
He improved somewhat after the
second operation and engaged in the
practice of law with his brother, w.
l.. Foushee, at Durham. Hes however,
failed to recover, and some weeks ago
he took to his bed and gradually sank.
During his term on the bench Judge
Foushee brought to his work untiring
study and application. He was re
peatedly urged to retire by his friends
when his health broke down, but, as
he often stated, he felt it to be his
duty to hold on as long as he could
stand up. He leaves a wife and two
children. The funeral services will
be held at Durham Wednesday.
