Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Sketch of the Life and Public Services of William Adams Richardson It was my good fortune to make the acquaintance of William Adams Richardson upwards of thirty years ago, when both of us were living at Cambridge, Massachusetts. He was then judge of probate and insolvency for Middlesex county, while I had but recently opened a law office in Boston. For a brief season we met daily at the table of the famous boarding house kept by Miss Upham, on Kirkland street, near the college. Early in 1873 my removal to Washington, where I have ever since practiced my profession, afforded me an opportunity, which I was glad to improve, of continuing oar acquaintance. Though his junior by many years, I was honored by being to a certain extent admitted to the confidence of his friendship. The better I came to know the man, the more highly I esteemed him. Shortly after Judge Richardson´s death one of the executors of his will placed in my hands a letter addressed to myself. The Judge had written it without date. In modest terms he had expressed a wish that I might prepare a sketch of his life, to be printed and copies distributed to friends, and to various public libraries. This office I have cheerfully accepted, solicitous only that his true proportions may be made to appear, and the leading features of his important public service be adequately set forth.
