Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memoir of Henry Billings Brown, Late Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States, Consisting of an Autobiographical Sketch: With Additions to His Life November 1, 1859, I entered the law office of Walker & Russell, of Detroit, Michigan, as a student of law. The next month another student, Henry Billings Brown, came into the same office. The friendship then begun continued without interruption until his death, and the intimacy, though sometimes greater or less, according as we met, was without a break. I did what I could to aid in securing his judicial appointments. While he was District Judge, I argued several cases before him, though the bulk of my practice was in the State courts; after he went to Washington, I saw him several times, and conversed with him freely on almost every topic. I have preserved many letters from him, mainly those written after his retirement. I had few cases before the Supreme Court while Justice Brown was on the bench. His reputation as Judge depends mainly on his published opinions. What is thought of him as District Judge, I know from talk with other lawyers practising in that court and from my personal knowledge.
