Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Wit and Wisdom of the Bench and Bar These pages do not profess to be a complete record of. The jokes or humorous anecdotes connected with the English Bench and Bar. They are confined to those which appear to contain some of the elements of \vit and Wisdom, and rather to such incidents as are at once witty and wise than to those which come under only one of these heads. The field is immensely wide, and it is by no means easy in so small a compass to do anything like justice to it; for where there is so much which is admirable, the task of selection is a difficult one. On the other hand, it is 'not pretended that anything like a comprehensive outline of the subject is laid before the reader. Certain divisions have been selected, and under them there have been arranged what cannot be called more than specimens.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Bench and Bar of Texas The definition of that intuitive principle or subtle quality of the mind, which we call genius, has never yet been formulated; at least, it has never received an intelligent interpretation among men. Its source lies concealed in the unexplored recesses of human nature; nor is its presence known until, awakened by the touch of opportunity, it bursts from its gyves, and flashes upon the world with a light that illuminates the extending scope of its own vision. But whatever may be the abstract nature of genius, its qualities are readily recognized and its manifestations easily judged. Its course is upward and onward, and its flight is bounded by no definable horizon, while its zenith is hidden somewhere in the realms of eternal and untar hished light.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Early Bench and Bar of Illinois Some years ago when in social conversation with two gentlemen of the Bar, I was relating some professional inci dents which had occurred many years before, when one of them suggested that it would be interesting to the profes sion of the present day if I would note down. Events 'which had occurred in the early times and lay them before the public; I promised to do so, and the result was a: series of articles published in the Chicago Legal News. Upon their publication I received many letters from gentlemen of the Bar in various parts of the State, expressing the hope that the articles might be republished in. Book form. I finally revised these articles and prepared them for the press, with several new papers which have not been previously pub lished, and placed them in the hands of the printer, thinking that many incidents and some peculiarities of former times might be thus perpetuated, which may in still later times be considered worth remembering. I do this the more readily as I am probably the only man now living who can speak from personal observations and recollections of events of fifty years and more ago. In the Appendix I have given an address delivered before the State Bar Association on the 24th of January last, and another given before the Chicago Bar Association February 11, 1893, in which will be found some statements germane to the subject, not previously given.

Download or read book Told Out of Court written by P. G. Smyth Chicago and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Told Out of Court: Personal Experiences of Members of the Chicago Bench and Bar A notable feature of this book is that all the stories here told are - at least at the time of going to press - those of living, breathing entities, men whose faces are daily familiar on the streets of Chicago and in the courts, whose names are of frequent occurrence in the newspapers, in fact essentially men of today. Each gives his personal experience in his own vein, in many instances the narrative being strongly indicative of the personality of the narrator. The lawyer is the recipient of the troubles of poor humankind. Therefore many of the reminiscences are fraught with domestic tragedy and pathos. But in the main the presentation is a lively legal symposium, illumed by piquant observation and humorous comment, some of it emanating, as will be seen, from rather unexpected quarters. I cordially admit that the work of making the collection abounded in delay and difficulty. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Bench and Bar of Georgia, Vol. 1: Memoirs and Sketches, Containing a Court Roll From Court to From Etc In the variety of matter incorporated in these volumes the author has thought proper to admit several letters written in the confidence of friendship, some of them entirely too kind for publication by himself. While this may be so, he is even willing to bear the reproach for the sake of other days and other associations now pleasant to recall. A number of origi nal letters will be found, however, wholly free from this objec tion, addressed to other persons, all germain to the subject. And here let the fact be proclaimed that general history is made up of transactions not less sudden and casual than those of individuals which constitute their chapter in the world. This current of life, more or less feeble in the experience of every man, gathers up particles from a thousand rills, and, after cleansing the gold from the rubbish, leaves the deposit for distribution among his fellows, - the dividend often being so minute in value as to require a microscope to perceive it.
