Hunt Memorial
Address Printed

An "In Memoriam" talk which
Judge Lawrence c. Rupp gave for
the late Judge William A. Hunt
at the May l docket call of the
Ottawa County Common Pleas
Court is reprinted in the May %
issue of the Ohio Bar magazine.
The memorial stated in part:
Judge Hunt did not leave a
large estate, he did what was
better and more lasting, he emp
tied his purse into the minds and
the morals of his college-bred
daughter and his two sons, one a
West Pointer and one a graduate
in law at Harvard.
Judge Hunt was friend maker
and had a marvellous memory for
remembering faces and names,
and in the brief 13 years of his
residence in our midst knew more
people by name than any lifelong
resident of the county. He was
a popular judge and as clever a
vote-getter as any jurist that ever
wore the ermine and/or warmed
the woolsack."
