ten years in the congress, had been
nominated for president, and Julian
was running for the vice presidency
When Judge Fox returned late in the
year of 1862, he found Julian making
his preparations. He decided to as

In Johnson's Office.
Judge Fox then took up the study
of law again, but not under Julian. He
was in the office of Judge Nimrod H.
Johnson, father of Henry U. Johnson,
an attorney in Richmond.
Judge Johnson was elected judge of
the common pleas and the criminal
court at that time, and gave his as

law, helping him to secure firm foot.

Judge Fox was elected district at
torney in 1862 for the common pleas
courts of Wayne, Fayette, Franklin
and Union counties. For that reason
he remained with Judge Johnson
but for short time, when he decided
to open an office for himself in Hag
erstown. He was reelected in 1864.
Duties of the office of district at
torney was difficult work at that time,
the district attorney being thwarted
wherever possible. Especially in I'm
ion and Franklin counties, Judge Fox
was forced to resort to little trickeries
of law in order to prosecute those who
were arrested. Often those who COM
mitted offenses went into the hills,
where they remained safely until the
statutes of limitations made it safe to
return to the towns.
Travelled on Horseback.
AS there was no other means of
trans portaticn to the county seats,
where the courts were held, Judge
Fox travelled on horseback and in a
buggy. He became well acquainted
in all four counties and was known as
one Of the most promising lawyers in
this section. His term Of office ex-
pired in 1857 and he then moved his
law office to Centerville, which was
then the county seat.
Shortly after this, he entered his
name as candidate for the office of
judge of the superior court of Wayne
county on the Republican tiket. He
was running against Judge William A.
Bickle, one of the most popular men
in the county. Judge Fox campaigned
all over the county, making speeches
in all the town halls, addressing the
farmers from his carriage and making
stump speeches.
1t was a hard fight and he won out.
He was elected for six years, although
he did not serve that length of time,

bestowed on his son-the future judge
Of the Wayne county circuit court.
Both Levi Fox and his wife were
active and influential members of the
Methodist Episcopal church. Levi Fox
was one of the prime movers of the
Eaton and Hamilton railroad, doing
much to secure it's location and com.
pletion.
While Judge Fox was still young
boy, his father moved to a farm in
Butler county, near Somerville, Ohio.
There he went to the country school.
His father sent him to the Whitewater
Institute, then at Centerville. Judge
Fox was sixteen years old then. He
remained in the school only one year,
when he returned to his home near
Somerville.
Taught School.
The following autumn the school
was without a teacher and at the age
of seventeen, Judge Fox became the
country schoolmaster. He held the
position four years, studying while he
was teaching others. When he was
twenty-one years old his family moved
to Centerville, and Henry Fox quit
teaching school.
Judge Fox knew little of law, al
though he had studied the subject as
far as possible with the small assert.
ment of books which he had. Shortly
after he moved to Centerville, there
was chance to take up the study of
law under George w. Julian, one of
the most famous lawyers in this part
Of the country, until few years later,
when Oliver P. Morton surpassed him.
}, Studied Under Julian.
: He studied under Julian for four
years. He was admitted to the bar
in 1861. When he was twenty-five
years old he left to join Company c,

NATIONAL CONFERENCE /
TO CONSIDER HOUSING
} and PUBLIC HEALTH.
(Ry Associated Pressl

DETROIT, Mich, Nov. 22-Plans
are developing rapidly for national
health conference to be held in De.
troit Nov. 80 and Dec. 1, at which
representatives of health departments
from all Of the larger cities in the
country will discuss the housing stu
alton and it's sffect upon the health Of
the people.
Officials of the local board of health
are conducting a health survey to de-
termine the difference in death rate
between centers of the city that are
crowded and those where the number
of persons in given territory is not
as great. Similar surveys are being
conducted in other large cities Of the
country and reports will be submitted
at the meeting here.
Detroit Is Surveyed.
The Detroit survey is repetition of
one conducted in 1919. Several cross
sections of the city were chosen for
the survey and representative blocks
in these sections inspected. The death
rate per capita is being figured upon
the following factors:
The number of families in each
apartment.
The number of persons in each
room.
The number Of persons using each
lavatory.
The number of persons on each acre.
The number of roomers.
In previous surveys a much higher
death rate was found in crowded cen
tiers than in less populated districts,
and the same finding is expected this
year
The aim of the conference. accord
ing to DR.. Henry F. Vaughan, De-
troits health commissioner, is to
bring to the attention of the country
the danger of over-crowding.

, all parts of the county to make
speeches. He went to other counties
and made friends with the most in.
fuential men in the state.
He had been friend of Oliver P.
Morton before Morton took the office
of governor. Morton's office had been
just across the street from that of
George w. Julian, under whom Fox
studied law.
There was bitter enmity between
Morton and Julian.
The fight between the two did not
last long, as Morton, with his splendid
physique, commanding manners and
quick wit, obtained the reputation Of
being the best lawyer in this part of
the country. However, the hatred be-
tween the two remained after Morton
had ceased to be a resident of this
part of the country and had passed
from the governorship into congress.
In a political speech at Economy,
Fox, when Judge of the superior
court, attacked George w. Julian and
exposed him in many ways, which be-
. fore had not become public, because
Of the sway which Julian held in the
county. The Indianapolis Sentinel
printed the story and it was copied by
other papers in the country.
Morton Praised Fox.
At that time Oliver P. Morton was
at Washington. Morton, hearing of
the speech, returned to Centerville and
personally congratulated Judge Fox.
He later secured for h: , the appoint
ment of Judge of the appellate court
after four years Of service in the
superior court.
| Judge Fox was appointed judge of
| the appellate court by Governor Chase
| In 1892. He served in this capacity for
a year and half, when he retired to
re-enter active practice at the bar.

Judge Fox was elected and took Of

years, as judge of the Wayne circuit
court. He also served a term in the
Richmond city council
In 1910 Judge Fox was called on to
write an article on a solution of the
divorce question. He wrote this for
the Palladium. The Chicago Tribune
printed it. Later it was copied and
