Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Address in Memory of Hon. Francis Kernan, LL. D : 1816-1892 Within a very short period this board has been called to mourn the death of two of its most respected and illustrious members. The portals of the grave had scarcely closed upon one of the most eminent literary men of our age - the lamented and gifted chancellor of the University - ere they again opened to receive another of our associates, distinguished alike in the forum and at the bar, a leader in one of the great political parties of our country, beloved wherever he was known, a man of national reputation, both as a statesman and a lawyer, who had filled with preeminent ability the most elevated positions in professional and civic life. Francis Kernan, a name known throughout the length and breadth of our country, after 52 years´ service at the bar, in the early autumn of the year, as of his life, passed to his eternal rest. The white snows of winter, not more pure than his character and fame, now cover his mortal remains, but to his colleagues in this board, his memory has the fresh verdure of perennial spring. Regent Kernan was the eldest son of General William Kernan, who emigrated to this country from Ireland about 1803. His companion on the voyage to the New World was the father of Charles O´Connor. William Kernan landed in New York where he remained about two years and then removed to Steuben county in this state, to that part of it now included in Schuyler county, and purchased a tract of wild land in the present town of Tyrone. He soon afterward married Rose Stubbs, also a native of Ireland, who came to this country with her parents in 1808 and settled near the location of General Kernan´s farm.
