gen came as a severe shock to local
lawyers. His sudden death was the
principal topic of conversation about
the city this morning and Leo Cold
berger, president of the Perth Am
boy Bar Association, at once had a
resolution of coincidence drawn UP
which was also signed by District
Court Judge c. c. Hommann. hon
orary president Of the local organiz-
alton.
The resolution follows:
In the death of Judge James ].
Bergen, the bench and bar of this
city and of the state have lost one
OF their most able jurists. His char
acter was that of a stern Judge with
the rare combination of judicial fair
ness and humanness not often found.
His decisions seldom were reversed.
His death will be deeply mourned
by the members of the bar. especianN
by those who have come into per-
sonal contact with him"

Justice Bergen was elected to tne
state legislature in 1875, 1876, 1890
and 1891, serving as speaker of the
assembly in 1891 and 1892. He was
a delegate to the Democratic Ma
tional Convention in 1896. For six
years he was prosecutor Of Somerset
county, and was a director of the
Somerville First National bank at
one time.
Justice Bergen was appointed a
vice chancellor in 1904 and in 1907
Governor Stokes nominated him as d
justice of the supreme court, which
nomination the senate confirmed
without reference. He was reap
pointed by Governors Fielder and
Edwards in 1914 and 1921, his pres
ent term being due to end in 1928.
Justice Bergen was born in Somer-
Vile, October /, 1S47. His father

J. Bergen, members of one of the
Oldest Holland-Dutch families in the
country.
The well known jurist received his
early education in an old brick
school in Somerville and in 1863 was
graduated from the Calvin Butler
Seminary of the same place. When
seventeen years old, he commenced
to study law with the late Hugh NJ
Castor. of Somerville. with whom
he remained until he was admitted
to the New Jersey bar as an attor-
ney in 1868.
After practicing his profession for
year in Plainfield, N. j., the late
justice formed partnership known
as Castor &c Bergen. This partner
ship existed for twenty years when
Mr.. CASTOR withdrew. Justice Ber-
gen was made a counselor in 1871.
