and qualified him for the position which he at once attained at the bar. 
He was apt, quick, dextrous, an orator, a good special pleader, happy in
his address and manners, courteous to the court and jury, and to his
opposing brothers.  He is one of the Judges of the Circuit Court in
Chicago, Ill., dialy acquiring reputation by his learning, honesty and fair
