EPHRAIM M. EWING, the chief justice of the Kentucky court of appeals, was
born December, 4, 1789, in Davidson county, Tennessee, and died June 11,
1860.  His father, General Robert E. Ewing, was a distinguished
Revolutionary officer.
     The Judge acquired a fine literary education and pursued his law
course in Transylvania University.  He became one of the most distinguished
jurists of Kentucky, and made his home in Russellville.  For many years he
was prosecuting attorney under Judge Broadnax and was the representative
of his district in the legislature for several terms.
     In 1835 he was appointed one of the associated judges of the court of
appeals, became chief justice in April, 1843, and served with distinction
in that capacity until June, 1847, when he resigned and resumed the
practice of law.  In 1850 he was appointed by Governor Crittenden as one
of the commissioners to codify the statutes.  In 1821 he was presidential
elector, and again in 1833.  Judge Ewing was a man of liberal culture and
broad mind, a warm friend of the cause of education, and at his death left
a handsome bequest to Bethel College, of Russellville, and also to
Cumberland University, in Lebanon, Tennessee.  He married Jane McIntyre.
He left to this family a handsome property, the result of his large law
practice.  He was a man of finely balanced mind, an able and learned lawyer
and one of the most just and upright men that ever lived in southern
Kentucky.
