On September 25, 1867, he married Georglana Fitz, of Whites Valley, and in 1868 ho accepted a position as bookkeeper for tho Elk Hill Coal and Iron Co., at Dickson City.

THE PURDY MEMORIAM On Monday afternoon court ad journed to permit tho members of tho Wayne County Bar to give ex pression to the high esteem in which they held the late Presiding Judge, George S. Purdy. Every member of tho bar was present, and gave expression to their regard for the deceased Jurist. As most of the addresses were made extemporane ous we were unable to obtain copy of any excepting R. M. Stocker's, which we print below. The follow ing resolutions were adopted: The Bar of Wayne county, desir ous of expressing its unfeigned sor row because of the death of Honor able George S. Purdy, who for twenty-one years was a member there of, and who supplemented this by service as President Judgo of the 22nd Judicial District, from Janu ary, 1894, to the time of his death on August 31, 1909. Coming to the Bar at the age of thirty-four years, with a large and extended experience in business af fairs, a keen knowledge of men, and a mind well stored with legal prin ciples, he rose rapidly In his profes sion to prominence, and had at the time of his election to the Judgeship an extensive and lucrative practice. His sturdy Integrity, broad sympa thy for those In financial or person al trouble, and his manifest Interest In the general welfare of men, whether rich or poor, won for him merited respect and confidence from all who knew him. As a lawyer, he was fair, able and aggressive, and as a Judge, he en Joyed an enviable reputation for his knowledge of legal principles and sound reasoning far beyond the standard of Common Pleas Judges, and his decisions have rarely been changed by appellate courts. He never aspired to be a leader, and was ever unobtrusive and mod est In all his associations. It was said of him that he possessed a large allowance of Common Sense, that so often proves a priceless gift in the safe construction and Inter pretation of laws. This also enable him always to take broad views of personal and official duty. Recog nizing the limitations of his sphere in life, ho lived up to Its limit, and was content in the reflection that after all, he does best who best per forms his duty amid the environ ment in which fate decrees his course. A busy life is always fraught with longings for some other way supposed to be Elysian, but Judge Purdy exhibited no uneasy desire for new ways; he was con tent to pursue the clearly defined path of duty, wherever ii might lead; whether it lay over the shin ing heights called by Tacitus the precipices of glory, or through the more quiet vales of an humbler, but generally a more useful career. Both as a practicing attorney and as a Judge, ho held his friends as with arms of steel. Ho had also great capacity for securing new friends. He never resented a wrong aimed at himself, but by his kindly manner, disarmed his enemies and won them to him as steadfast com panions; nor was he critical of the faults of others, and if he made any observation touching the frailitles of others it was always tempered with charity. His name will long be revered among the legal fraternity and his death keenly felt by those most closely associated with him. In order therefore to show its ap preciation of his admirable qualities and to preserve his memory, the Bar does now resolve that a copy of this minute be sent to his family and that the Court be requested to give It a place among the records. H. WILSON, A. T. SEARLE, F. P. KIMBLE, Committee. R. M. Stocker said: It seems but yesterday that Judge Purdy was up on our streets, in our offices and sit ting in yonder chair in our court room, now he is only a reminiscence, an echo of the past, which only re minds us how transitory life is. It matters little what wo say here, every man writes his own me morial by the life he leads as he moves about before the community. Character and reputation are the resultant of that life, and from the Impression made by the life there Is no appeal. Fulsome eulogy cannot add to, nor harsh criticism take from the record which every man makes for himself, but one's contemporar ies may profitably consider some of his characteristics. A prominent characteristic of Judge Purdy was prudence. "The prudent man foreseeth the evil and hldeth himself." The Anti-Court House movement taken at its flood led pn to fortune and the Judgeship for George S. Purdy. With that movement he was identified particu larly In connection with the election of Otis Avery, as Associate Judge. He was also strenuously engaged in tho campaign for tho Judgeship in 1883, otherwise he took no very ac tive part, excepting for a few friends in any political contest. Being elected Judge in 1893 without op position and again, in the same man ner in 1903, he doubtless consider ed himself out of politics. Ten years of commissioners' clerkship and fifteen years of the Judgeship constitutes his official life. In both positions he succeeded in meeting with very general approbation. Without the advantages of any thing but a common school educa tion, his early training in farming, lumbering, school teaching and clerkship In tannery stores, develop- ed sound common sense, which united with a sense of justice made him an equitable judge, whoso de cisions were seldom reversed. His prudence, cool-headed poise and good judgment were manifested in his business affairs, as a lawyer as well as on the bench. These quali ties united with hard common sense, enabled him to grasp legal principles nnd make practical application of them, where many persons with far greater scholastic attainments have failed. In administering Justice to criminals he was lenient to a fault. Ho attended church regularly at the morning service and maintain ed a respectful attitude towards the church, to which he contributed, and of which he was a trustee, furth er than that ho gave no sign. With temperance and kindred reforms ho was never identified, although per sonally he was a man of temperate habits. Socially he looked on the bright side of things and lent him self easily to the lighter amuse ments; and trout fishing was his principal recreation. He was an in telligent conversatlonlist, although not an extensive reader nor a man of great scholarship. Altogether he was a man who attended to his own affairs very strictly and pru dently without intermeddling very seriously with other things, and both politically and financially, like most prudent men he was successful. $100 REWARD, $100.
