Bar Association M
 T Tribute ToLate Judre
Memory Of Hon. Frank ?. MeEvoy HOnored at Meeting Today; Formal Resolution Adopted

MOVllB trlputeS 70 Juuge eTanH P. McEvoy, who died last June 24 were rendered today when the Wa. terbury Bar association met at the county courthouse building to draw up resolutions on the passing of the resident superior court juriSt.
 The bar resolution. which will bC entered in the court records, wal drawn up by Attorney John H. Gas. sidy, Common Pleas Court Judge Miles Y. McNiff, and States Attor. f1ey William B. Fitzgerald, and wal read at the meeting by Attorney Cassidy.
 Comments were made by severa, other lawyers after the bar approved adoption of the resolution. Judge Charles J. Mclaughlin, who will pre-. side here for the fall term, late, ordered 1t entered in the court rec. ordS.
 The resolution follows:
 Dark was the day in the on. 1als of the Waterbury Bar asso. ciation when on June 24, io45 the recording angel closed the book of his life and summoned Honorable Frank P. McEvoy, Judge of the superior Court, to receive the re. ward of the 67 years of his ex- emplary, earthly existence. To many his departure was sudden: he had but recently presided in the trial of an important cause In the Superior Court at Hartford, but those near and dear to him were cognizant of the weakness of the body and that the power of his will and the courageous de- termination to perform the func. tions of his calling sustained him. A violent recurrence of latent malady brought to an end the career of this truly worthy judge.
 From the moment that he was invested with the robe of judicial authority, he was imbued with the thought that his was not c personnal role, but rather c rep- reSentatiVe one; that he was but an instrument of the law, a mere channel through which the prin- ciples of law and equity reached the people.
 Prom his experience as e practitioner he knew Of the tri- bulation5 which beSet the lawyer out front and so he treated him with kindness, patience, courtesy and respect, with the result that the lawyer reciprocated in kind and Judge McEvoy enjoyed in the respect and sincere admiration of the Bar of this State.
 He entertained deep religious convictions and practlced the ten- cts of his faith with c zeal which made him an example of good in the community. He was indeed a Man of God.
 He brought to the bench the industry he acquired in private life. No cause was too difficult or too aTduouS for him: he never shirked from duty, never avoided responsibility. When duty called. he obeyed. His decisions well considered, his opinions clear and comprehensive of the issues iTls volved.
 "Pre-eminent in the characterIs- tics which marked him as Q judge extraordinary was his great love for children. This was exeETi- plified in his devotion to the pro- tection of youth through proba- tionary regulations. Our judiciary had recently recognized this sue periative quality and had imposed on him the enormous respoTlsi- bility of framing regulations and procedure for the Judicial cone trol and correction of youthful yioIatcrs Of the law.
