May it phase the aurl:l lmvo ti
Bomuwhnt palnfu' duty to iierfurin, but
It la ono most proper to discharged. I
mvo beon requested by my brethren of
tho liar to present to tho Court cciiatn
Resolutions adopted by them on Salur
day ovenlrip; lust, on thobccasloa of tho
death of William 0. Hurloy, Esq., tho
olilest member of our liar. Ho. died
moat pcacofully on Thursday night of
last week, at tho residence or,ilt. i;nrn
In Mooimuurg, surrounded by sympa
t'llzing relatives nnd frlcnd-i.
Tho Members of tho Bar In pursuance,
of ono of tho Resolutions ndoiited by
them (and aeeompanlod by Ills Honor
tho President Judi;o) attended tho fun
eral of the decctwed on yesterday, nnd
saw his romnlns deposited In tho old
burial irround at Sunbury. Ho is Inter
.red beside his parents and near tho spot
of his birth.
Mr. Hurley was of Irish descent and
was born at Sunbury on tho 18th day of
January 1799. Ho was, therefore, at
tho tlmo of his death, nearly seventy-
ono years of age, and ho had boon for
17 years a member of tho bar of this
county.
Mr. Hurley's education was rcspectn.
bio and was quite sufficient to qualify
him for performing all tho duties of
his manhood and particularly tho duties
of tho profusion which he adopted.
Ho pursued academic studies at ono
tlmo, at Northumberland, under the
Instruction ot Hon. Robert C. Grier
now ono of tho Judges of the Supremo
Court of tho United Stales. Afterward?,
for some years ho was Clerk in thu
I'rothonotary's oflleo at Dauvillo when
Geo. A. Frlck, Esq., his brother-in-law,
held that olllce. Ho cemmencod tho
study of tho law also at Danville, under
Mr. t'rick, but completed his studies at
Sunbury in tho office of Hon. Alexan
der Jordau, now President Judgo of
the 8th Judicial district.
Ho was admitted to practice us a
member of tho bar of Columbia county
on the 5th day of November 1822 ; the
motion for his admission being made
by Mr. Bellas on report of a committee
of examination. Within two or three
years after his admission to the Bar ho
settled at Bloomsburg, and he remained
here, engaged in tho business of his
profession, until his death on tho 2nd
day of December 1869
Mr. Hurley was devoted to his pro.
fusslon and his diligcnco In performing
its duties was unwearied and faithful.
His work was always done with
promptness and thoroughly. For many
years niter his admission to tho Bar,
however, from natural diffidence, ho
was reluctant to appear In Jury trials,
and even afterwards lie sought associate
counsel whenever his cases camo on for
trial. But even In those times ho was
not incapable as a jury lawyer, and
afterwards ho entered uponnctlvo prac-i
tlcoas an advocate and was fairly suc
cessful. Ho prepared a case very well
and ho tried one with good Judgement.
To Juries ho spoke sensibly always, and
often with much forcoand effect. And
his character for Integrity (Including
tho elements of fairness and sincerity)
gavo him a moral weight and Influence
with juries as It did uniformly with
thaCourt.
For a luu tlmo Mr. Hurley had tho
leading practice iu our Orphan's Court,
and during tho last years of his life,
from voluntary choice, his practice was
very nearly confined to that Court. Ho
was a very safo man as adviser and
counsel in tho settlement of estates,
andalw.tys took a sincere and kindly
Interest In tho adjustment of disputes
among heirs nnd others'Intcrcsted there
in. Ho was, therefore, ahlo to accom
plish, and did In fact accomplish, much
of good In u nuletbut effectual manner.
I camo to Bloomsburg In December
1811, and havoknownMr. Hurley very
Veil ever since. Wo wero tho' only
members of tho bar resident hero for sev
eral years, and when subsequent to tho
removal of- tho seat of justice, others
camo hero, or wero'ndmlttcd to practice
here, they woro younger men whocould
only acqulro business gradually as their
merits becainoknown to the public. Wo
wero thercforo fora tlmo In possession of
most of tho practice of our ' courts, ox
copt such as camo from Berwickaid
Danville, nnd in cases of litigation weto
constantly pitted agalmt each other.
But at no tlmo then' or afterwards, In
tho heat of trial or" in any form of pro
fessional Intercourse, did an unkind
word pass between us, or did any clr
cumstanco occur In our professional ro.
latlons to ho remembered with regrot.
I was nevcr'nMe to detect In our de
ceased friend nny tricky or unmanly
conduct, nor any selfish, unkind or ar
bitrary disposition ortcmpor; It Is truo
ho was sometimes petulant even with
clients or friends, huthlsVotuhiuco was
without malleo and It oiled was
nmuslng rather than painful.
But tho great merit I claim for him
before tho public Is this: that with great
opportunities foroucouragluglitlgallon
among our pcoplo ho was always for
pcaco where It could' possibly ho scour.
cd. I am suro ho never commenced or
conducted u suit at law, or oilier pro
ceeding In our courts, for tho merd jlur.
peso of obtaining a fee; nor over for
that or any other object wilfully en
couraged unduo resistance to ajust de
mand. And ho Was always willing to
lidvlse nnd prompt to assist In tlio set
tlement of disputes' between purlics, bq
foroor after litigation began. It has
been for U3 In this county a matter of
prldo that tho quarterly terms of our
Courts hnvo lind, very commonly,) no
greater duration than four days. To no
innti living or dead oro tho pcoplo of
our cotinly so much Indebted as to Mr.
Hurloy for a cheap administration of
Justice, consequent upon peaceful iiquits
established among them.
Mr. Hurley had a tuslo for horticul
ture! and for farming. IIo paid frequent
visits to his farm In Montour township,
In this county, and mado during tho
lost dozen years of his life annual Jour
nles to Ohio to look after his farm lands
located In that State. Ono of his pleas
ures was to cultivate somo cholco trees
and plants upon his lot In Bloomsburg.
Mr. Hurloy had strong political opin
ions and was very nlneero and consist
ent In their support. Ho was a Whljc
of tho old school, and recently a inonv
ber of tho llepublieuh party! but under
our existing plan of lections ho was
shut off from public service either In
tho Legislature or In Congress. Ho
was onco, J believe, a candldato for
Congress and twlcu for a seat In tho
Slato Somite, but went down as a candi
date under t ho majorl ty rulo of elections,
I am not aware that ho over filled any
politlrnt station except that of Presi
dential elector In IS 10.
I will coucludoby saying, In genoral
terms, that our deceased friend was u
most honorablu mid useful member of
society, us well as a lawyer of respec
table talents and estimable character.
Wo all have reason to mourn his loss
and wo will all do well to Imltuto his
virtues.
I will now, with thu permission of
tho Court, read tho Resolutions adopt
cd by tho Bar:
Jcesolvcd : That tlio members of tho
Bar of Columbia county dcoply regret

JIIR. .TACKSO.VS REMARKS.
M. E. Jackson Eq then addressed tho
Court as follows:

so long and Intimately nequaiuted. with
tho brother whose deceaso wo so much
lament and entertaining ns I do such a
high opinion of his Integrity and worth
I cauuot refrain from cxproosidg my
self on this deeply solemn occasion,
I have listened with profound and pain
ful attention to tho eloquent anil just
address of my distinguished friend
upon tho Ufo and character of thodeceas-
cd, nnd cannot hopo to add anything to
the portrait ho has presented of our, la
mented brother. His professional ca
reer has been long indeed, covering a
spaco of near half u century, and has
been ono of labor and nuxiety that none
but a lawyer can appreciate. No exer
tion seemed too much for hl'm when
thu Interest of his client demanded It;
ho was proverbial with tho bar as well
as the public for possessing those quali
ties that go to make a safu and success
ful pmclit!oner,butu3 no qualityufhead
or heart exempts from our great enemy:
death, ho has been summoned to his
account and we nio this day called to
dOploro his loss. While ho was with us
his conduct and tho result of his actions
wero his own, but now thoy beloug to'
us. It Is eminently lilting then that wo
claim tho legacy of his good namo as
citizens and lawyers and present it for
emulation by other?. If decreed olh
crwiso then tho greatest good resulting
from tho lifo of the energetic useful and
real man would bo lost.
I came to tho B.tr in November 1810
having read law with John Cooper Esq.
In Danville, nt which tlmo I becarao
acquainted with Mr. Hurloy. Ho was
then In nctlvo and full practice, ho hav
Ing been then about twenty years at thq
Bar.
I scon learned tho goodness of his

what cliecrfulpess ho assisted and sup
ported by his ndvlco and counsel the

tnat peculiar delicacy which would ai
most imply that ho wn3 receiving in
stead of bestowing Instruction. I am
not aihamedio say tliat I havo myself
frequently rpcelvod valuable Instruc
Hon from him, As a colleague ho was
most efficient and valuable, and ns an
opponent courteom to tholast degree.
It may bo said In this connection that
ho was at times hasty and iritablo with
his clients when his mind was unusually
employed ; but all will bear witness
that his irritability was as tho passing
cloud and rapidly disappeared. Ho
nover entertainod feelings of splto or
rcvengo. Whllo ho never laid claim
to brilliancy as an advocate ho was
nevertheless successful. In his palmy

Upon tho presentation of the rcso.

Introduction, bo entered o record.
JUDQU UlWICI.Ifl ItKMAUICg.
Ills Honor Judge Kl well then replied
ns follows :
By tho death of Mr.Hurley tho Bench
and tho Bar nro nllko bereaved. Wo

niiu unite with thu members or tho imr
In heartfelt expressions of sorrow for
tho loss whlcirbothwo and they ha'vd
sustalnedS And yet; wo ought to bo
thankful rtlmtf ho was spared long.
He was much tho oldest member oftho
Bar In thin district. For nlmost half a
Century ho was engaged In tho nctlvo
duties of the legal profession,
By rciuonoflilsagoaud uniform kind
lless towards, and paternal regnrd'fbrlts
younger members, ho was justly called
"Tho Father oftho Bar."
Uy reason of his legal learning, long
experience, touud Judgment nnd reten
tive memory, ho was often called upon
to act ns Amicus Curia in settling ques
tions arising In practico and otherwise.
His aid was always promptly rondered,
and In such kind and courteous manner
as' entitled him to tho appellation, of
"Friend oftho Court."
Ho began tho practico of law whllo
Judge Tllghman was Chief Justice of
tho Supremo Court, and continued It
through the official terms of four other
Chief Justices and Into that of the pres
ent Incumbent, Ho has praticed before
ten President Judges of the judicial dis
tricts which included tho County of Co
lumbia. When hu camo to tho Bar,
thero wero but eighteen published vol
umes of decisions of tho Supremo Court.
Slnco thnt time, thero have been pub
lished ono, hundred and three volumes,
containing sixty thousand pages of law
size, and tho Digest of Statutes has been
Increased about ono thousand pages.
It is thus apparent that his early
reading was mostly con lied to tho
principles of tho common law,for which
he had the highest veneration. Tho
rule, stare decisis he regarded as. emi
nently conservative. Ho was not how
over, so wedded to ancient legal learn
ing ns to bcllovo that no Improvement
could bo made. IIo therefore read with
Interest thetio numerous pages of reports
and statutes stored his mind with tho
knowledge which thoy contained, and
appropriated it in practico.
Ho was not often in person before tho
Supremo Court, yet many of tho lm
portantcausesdecldcd there were partlcl
patcd in by hlm,both In the court below
and In the preparation of tho argument
In tho higher court.
Ills practico was largely In thuOrpbaiiB'
Court, a tribunal into which tho estate
of every man must couiu us suro ns he
dusceuds to his grave. No one has done
moro than hu did to mako that court
In fact, what it was'in name, u court of
record. When ho camo to tho Bar, and
for somo tlmo ufterwards, the business
of tho Orphans' Courts throughout tho
Stuto was conducted In thu loosest man-
ucr. Orders of tho Court, upon which
titles dupeuded wero to bo found on
looso scraps of paper, .deposited in unti
tled pigeon-holes or packed away as
useless lumber, uud wero thus trans
mittcd from clerk to clerk.ns changes
were mado of that officer, leading to
grcntconfuslon and perhaps lossof title.
In his practico. ho adopted a different
course. JSvery paper presented ny mm
was prepared witli duo, care, couched
n legal phrase, and contained Just bo
much uud no moro of tho facts, as was
necessary to give Jurisdiction and the
reason for luvokiug the aid of thu Court.
Every order and decree was carefully
prepared, and tho easo was not dismiss'
eel from his mind until ho taw it pro
perly entered of record.
It is behoved, that in his long prac
tice there is not an instance of loss or
defect of title occasioned by any neglect
or mlstuko of his
Ho thus at un early day furnished
models fur his compeers, nud his whole
future, practice was ay succession of ex
cmplars which hlsjuulors always wero
safo In copying after
In discussing legal questions his points
wero stated briefly and with precision.
Leaving minor matters to take care of
themselvcs,hls vigorous intellect seized
upon the prominent features of his case
and placed them in tho fore front of his
argument. IIo had tho power of con
ccntration in a remarkable degree Fut'
ly understanding his subject and what
ho decided to communicate, ho had
no difficulty in making others under'
stand him. Tho whole force of his
thoughts was concentrated and em
bodied In a few terso sentences In which
ho at onco presented both tho positions
winch ho assumed and tho reasons
which sustained them.
He was plain in, his speech, and op
posed to display and ostentation In
court or elsewhere.
To simply say ho was honest, Is bestow
ingbut faint praise, for that Is a quality
"it is a shamo for a man to bo without.'
Ills probity was of that character
which Instinctively hates fraud am
deceit, and loves truth Jindjustlco for
their own sake,
Ho was industrious, prompt, cner

well as liberal In tho bestowinent of his

reserved point (on which ovldenco for

for further exposition lu order that the
whole strength of the caso against our
citizens shall bo .completely presented,
Wo refer to tho meeting held at tho
house of John Rantz in Benton town

conscquenco.of tho nrrlval of troops In

tho lower end of Luzerne county, wo
have at hand In thorcnords'of thp (rials
the means of Judging what wero the
blects of that meeting, What was said
and done by those who attended It, nnd
what character is to no assigned to u in
our history. But In treating the subject
of Unit meeting wo shall notcouflno our
selves to the testimony glveu by tlin
government witnesses, nor oven strictly
to tho military records before us. Wo
shall use tho testimony given on both
sides at tho trials nnd resort, af occasion
may invite, to other nnd Independent
sources of iuformntlon.
The Time when' it was Held :
The date ortboRantz meelingdeserves
particular notlco. It was tho 14th of
Aug. 1604, the day following the arrival
of troops at Bloomsburg, and most of
those who attended It came to It lu the
afternoon. It was called suddenly and
It assembled because tho troops camo
and because exciting and alarming re
ports wero abroad. That meeting did
not cause tho Invasion; on tho contrary
tlio Invasion caused and produced It.
Troops did not come to tlio county be
cause, of tlio Rinlz meeting. They wero
ordered here, and n part of tlieiu were lu
fact here, before lite meeting was held.
On Aug. 13th, eighty mounted men and
forty Infantry men, with two pieces of
artillery, arrived In Bloomsburg. They
were followed by other troops, no
doubt under orders Issued prior to thu
14th. On the morning of thu lGth, two
hundred uud fifty moro arrlvod, nnd
within a iuw days, by additions, tlio
army of Invasion was mado to number
one thousand men.
It Is perfectly plain then and undenia
ble that thu Raulz meeting cannot bo
plead as an excuse or Justification for
sending trtlops Into our county. Those
troops were orderod hero without any
pos-iiblo reference to a meeting which
had not thmi been held or projected and
which never would havo been held or
thought of If the troops had not been
sent.
Who Compose It: rho meeting
was made up of r-everal classes of per
sons who nro to bo carefully distinguish
ed from each other, ami it. Is to.bo ob
served also that borne attended earlier
and somo later in tho day, that a part
left before tho meeting ended, nud that
Rantz himself was absent u part of tho
time.' Taken nltohcther, the persons
who attended may bo described lis lot
lows:- First, Nou-rcporting drafted
men, of whom (so far us wo now ro
member) not ono was ever seized and
punished by tho military authorities ;
Second, Citizens who attended from
curiosity and without any formed or
definite object, (theso constituted tho
largest clasj); Third, Several persons
who attended to prevent, by their nd
vico nnd Influence, any imprudent or
improper action by tho meeting, Wo
repeat, theso sovoral classes of persons
aro not to bo confounded witli each
other and tho samo judgment applied
to each, for tho samo motives and con
auct wero not common toull. It Is not
our purposo to acquit all who attended
from censure for Imprudence, or to jus'
tlfy those men who had been drafted
in their falluro to respond to' tho call o
the Government, but It is our purpose
to slow from the testimony which wo
shall produco that the meeting together
of the citizens wus not criminal, thatiit
was produced by reports of danger to
person and property in tho neighbor
hood, nnd that n just discrimination
must be mado botweon tin motives and
conduct of tlio different classes of per'
sons who attonded. Having dono this
wo shall next show that tho military
authorities, (obviously from political
reasons and Instigated by menju.thjs
county who nan ineir earj.proceeueu
to seize and imprison ,inenvhoso con
duct at tho Rautz meeting was Innocent
uud in fact' laudable, while they passed
by uncensmed and unpunished those
who wero to blame. In' fact, It will
appear, tiat thu mau most prominent at
that meeting in counselling violence uud
who wus.properly liablo to punishment
under thu law us,u non-reporting draft

their cotiflduico and litvoraud used by

Col. Brockway as ho was generally

of this now light claims, that lto liasdiscorer

exploitive subitanco. And Judging fiom ox
pcritucnts we witnessed ut C'apt. IIuIT'h hotel

buccccded ai ho claims. 'o saw fluid pour

taw the fluid in tho can ignited and burning
freely, cxtiuguished in au, instant. The light
furnished by tho fluid Is clear and brilliant
and no atnoko or offensive odor is emitted
even when tho light ia turned down to its
lowest point, The uon-oxplosivo qualities of
