INTERESTING ADDRESS-THE
COUNTY BAR OF BYGONE DAYS
Delivered by y. w. Rowland at Recent Meeting of
the Van Buren County Bar Association

that time consisted of Allegan, Kala-
mazoo and Van Buren counties.
Judge Littlejohn was learned
gentleman of the old school. In
private life he was soc%ble and
genial, but when holding court he was
the very personifcation of dignity.
l can imagine that hear him, after
the the lapse of these many years,
saying to me, the first thing after the
sheriff had announced that court was
in session, "Mr. Clerk, read the jour-
nal" Nothing could be done, no
business could be transacted until the
record of the previous day had been
read, corrected if necessary, and sign
ed by His Honor. 1t is with pleasure
that l recall his unfailing kindness
and courtesy. No more able, just and
upright judge ever presided over our
circuit court.

think truthfully say, that they were

centerr until the time of our revolution
and in England even later. News of
crime and blood-curdling punishment ap-
peared in sheets that told in lurid Ian
guage of the death on scaffold or gallows
of noted criminals, usually with their
confessions, which were usually more
readable and accurate accounts of the
crime when the perpetrators hadn't con-
fessed. Separate also were the "edi-
torials," the broadsides or pamphlets OF
one of these. which Defoe wrote in verse
in vindication of William III. no fewer
than $4,000 copies were sold on the
streets of London-a circulation" which
if repeated today in the same proportion
to population would be around the million
mark.
The Thirst for News
There was. then, the reading public
patiently awaiting the co-ordinated news
paper which would combine all these
fragmentary features. The difficulty
that even prominent men like Samuel
Pepys, with wide circles of friends, had in
getting the ordinary news of London in
the days of Charles II seem to present
day readers ludicrous. The nine volumes
of Pepys's diary are one long thirst for
news. He seems forever to have been
hanging around the vestibules Of White
hall asking questions and being usually
entirely misinformed by exaggerating
friends. The things he believed would
cost reporter his job for outrageous
taking" If they got into a paper OF to-
day. And IL his credulity was so abused,
how dense must have been the ignorance
of the average man. This one thing

the feat of bringing the news daily to the
citizen was accomplished. notable serv-
Ice toward preserving law and order In
communities was rendered. because peo.
pie could stay peacefully at home and yet
keep well informed
But more important than this was the
aid which the combining of the small and
special sheets gave to the growth of de.
mocracy. For the pamphlets were the
personal opinions Of enterprisipg individ-
uals writing on their favorite themes.
while the newspapers which succeeded
them. in being comprehensive enough TO
MI the needs Of all sorts OF people. had to
be representative of public opinion. They
might be ahead OF the times, but they
dared not be behind them.
