Excerpt: ...him: "Mr. Thomas has been a member of our Bar for a number of years; is a lawyer of high standing and a man of excellent character and reputation." Daniel E. Thomas died May 6, 1896. He was stricken with paralysis February 28. After a few weeks, brain trouble developed and he grew rapidly worse, dying after an illness of nine weeks, in the prime of life. The following is quoted from a memorial prepared and adopted by the Toledo Bar Association: "His high ideals and unswerving integrity together with his feeling of loyalty and patriotism made him one of the very best of citizens. He was liberal to a fault, both with his time and his not over-abundant means. The needs of his unfortunate fellows and the affairs of his community, his city and his church appealed to him with a force that the majority of men know nothing of. It has been noted and commented upon that the present extraordinary good criminal record of St. Joseph county, Michigan, began with the conscientious and skillful official work of Daniel E. Thomas as its prosecuting attorney. In time his practice became one of the most desirable in his county. His Michigan Supreme Court cases form two full bound volumes, and several of his cases have made the law of the State of Michigan as to the points involved. Though in his later years he had given some special attention to patent law, yet in variety of information and all-around ability as a lawyer he had few equals. As counsel he was safe, for in addition to his legal ability he was possessed of unusual good judgment and be. was conscientious at all times and in all things. To the good influences of his beautiful home-life he yielded most willingly and this made him and kept him the pure Christian gentleman that he...

Download or read book States at War written by Richard F Miller and published by University of MICHIGAN REGIONAL. This book was released on 2020-04-15 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unlike most books about the Civil War, which address individual battles or the war at the national level, States at War: A Reference Guide for Michigan in the Civil War chronicles the actions of an individual state government and its citizenry coping with the War and its ramifications, from transformed race relations and gender roles, to the suspension of habeas corpus, to the deaths of over 10,000 Michigan fathers, husbands, sons, and brothers who had been in action. The book compiles primary source material—including official reports, legislative journals, executive speeches, special orders, and regional newspapers—to provide an exhaustive record of the important roles Michigan and Michiganders had in the War. Though not burdened by marching armies or military occupation like some states to the southeast, Michigan nevertheless had a fascinating Civil War experience that was filled with acute economic anxieties, intense political divisions, and vital contributions on the battlefield. This comprehensive volume will be the essential starting point for all future research into Michigan’s Civil War-era history.

Download or read book Michigan s Civil War Citizen General written by Jack Dempsey and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2019-04-29 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With vivid battlefield accounts based on extensive primary research, award-winning author Jack Dempsey's masterful biography tells the amazing story of an unsung hero. Detroit's Alpheus Starkey Williams never tired in service to his city or his country. A veteran of the Mexican-American War, he was a preeminent military figure in Michigan before the Civil War. He was key to the Lost Order, the Battle of Gettysburg, the March to the Sea and the Carolinas Campaign. His generalship at Antietam made possible the Emancipation Proclamation, and Meade and Sherman relied on his unshakable leadership. A steady hand in wartime and in peacetime, Williams was a Yale graduate, lawyer, judge, editor, municipal official, militia officer, diplomat and congressman who stood on principle over party.

Download or read book The United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan written by David Gardner Chardavoyne and published by Wayne State University Press. This book was released on 2012-03-15 with total page 458 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A chronological history of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan, from its beginnings in the 1830s to the present. The United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan, the federal trial court based in Detroit with jurisdiction over the eastern half of Michigan, was created in 1837 and operated as recently as 1923 with a single trial judge. Yet by 2010, the court had fifteen district judges, a dozen senior U.S. district judges and U.S. magistrate judges, and conducts court year-round in five federal buildings throughout the eastern half of Michigan (in Detroit, Bay City, Flint, Port Huron, and Ann Arbor). In The United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan: People, Law, and Politics, author David Gardner Chardavoyne details not only the growth of the court but the stories of its judges and others who have served the court, litigants who brought their conflicting interests to the court for resolution, and the people of the district who have been affected by the court. In chronological order, Chardavoyne charts the history of the court, its judges, and its major cases in five parts: The Wilkins Years, 1837 to 1870; The Industrial Revolution and the Gilded Age, 1870 to 1900; Decades of Tumult, 1900 to 1945; The Era of Grand Expectations, 1946 to 1976; and A Major Metropolitan Court, 1977 to 2010. Along the way, Chardavoyne highlights many issues of national concern faced by the court, including cases dealing with fugitive slave laws, espionage and treason, civil rights, and freedom of speech. Chardavoyne also examines how conflicting interests—political, local, and personal—have influenced the resolution of a myriad of issues not directly related to the court’s cases, such as who becomes a federal judge, how many judges the court should have, in which cities and in which buildings the judges hold court, what kinds of cases the judges can and cannot hear, and the geographical boundaries of the district and of divisions within the district. This volume includes helpful appendixes that list the Eastern District of Michigan Court’s Chief Judges, Clerks, Magistrates and Magistrate Judges, and United States Marshals; along with the succession of judges, and a list of District and Circuit Court Case Filings, 1837–2010. Legal professionals and scholars will appreciate this thorough history.
