The intention is to have it written out in long-hand and printed each dav, so that the Master, parties and counsel will have it in convenient form for reference' It is not known to many of our people that Judge LINN was formerly a resident of our county, but such is the fact. He came from Bellefonte here in the year 1N36 at the age of sixteen, and was an engineer on the North Bratch Canal under his uncle, Mr. HAUUIS, who was chief engineer. He remained here till some time in the year 1833, and has often been heard to say that they were the " three happiest years of his life.'' It is certain deep and pleasant impressions were made upon his mind, for he not only remembers events, but the names of persons from Browutown to Athens, their business and peculiarities. He thinks he knew every man, woman and |t-hild along the line of the canal between those two points. Aside from the hard work he had to do, it is not claimed but that lie enjoyed fun, and that iiis happiness in this rsspefet was not circumscribed. It was the jubilant, jolly ov erflow not unexpected in a young man of his ability, and sound bodily condition. And now after 42 years of 4< bard knocks" in prac tical life, he returns to us in the maturity of manhood, but inclined to feel young again and live over the merry day:: of '36-9. Many of his friends and acquaintances are gone 'tis true, but many remain who will extend to him warm hands and cordial greetings, and make his sojourn anitng us as pleasant as possible. After he left our county, he read law at Carlisle, was admitted to the bar in 1843, practiced his profession at Bellefonte until 1858, when he was elected President Judge of the district composed of Clinton, Center, and Clearfield. After serving out nearly his term, lie resigned and about twelve years ago came to Williamsport, where his practice has been large and lucrative. He is one of the ablest lawyers of the state.
