GEORGE MILES, aged 52 years, one of the Justices of the Supreme Court of this State, and presiding Judge of the Circuit Court for this Circuit. The deceased had been a resident of this village for the past 14 years, during which time he had endeared himself to our citizens, by his kindness of heart, urbanity of manners, and gentlemanly deportment. The following tribute to his memory is a just and appropriate eulogium:—-
BAR MEETING.
At a meeting of the Bar and officers of the Circuit Court for the County of Washtenaw, at the Court House in this village, on the 24th day of August, 1850,
Hon. EDWIN LAWRENCE was appointed chairman, and J. M. Walker, secretary.
Edwin Thomson, Norton R. Ramsdell, and Geo. Sedgwick, Esqrs., were appointed a committee to prepare resolutions expressive of the sentiments and feelings of the meeting, on the melancholly event of the recent and sudden death of Hon. GEORGE MILES, one of the Justices of the Supreme Court of this State, and presiding Judge of this Judicial Circuit, and thereupon,
Edwin Thomson, Esq., in behalf of the committee, presented the following preamble and resolutions, which were unanimously adopted:
The members of the Bar and officers of the Circuit Court for this County, having been called together to give a public and sincere testimony of their feelings and sense of the loss the Bench, the profession and our citizens have sustained by the death of Hon. GEORGE MILES, one of the Justices of the Supreme Court of the State of Michigan, and Judge of this Judicial Circuit, and an expression of their reverence for the memory of a citizen, distinguished in the grateful respect of all who knew him, and endeared to the affections of his friends, no less by his private than his public virtues, no less by the admirable qualities of his heart, than of his mind. This meeting thus assembled, while conscious how inadequately those feelings and sentiments can be expressed by any token of respect in their power to manifest, do adopt the following resolutions:
1. That the bar has been deprived of one of its brightest ornaments; and the Bench of an illustrious member, they have sustained a loss of extensive learning, untiring perseverence, pure integrity, and sterling abilities; a long and varied practice at the Bar, had prepared his mind for the severer duties and higher responsibilities of the Bench, and he has left to the profession lasting proof how closely he pursued the one, and how faithfully he discharged the other.
2. That this meeting deeply deplores the decease of Judge Miles in the midst of his career of usefulness and honor, and that the members of the Bar, and Officers of this Court attend the funeral of the deceased, and wear the usual badge of mourning for 30 days.
3. That we sympathise with his bereaved wife, who mourns the loss of an affectionate husband.
4. That the secretary of this meeting deliver a copy of these resolutions to the widow of the deceased, and that N. R. Ramsdell, Prosecuting Attorney for this County, be requested to present a copy of these resolutions and the proceedings of this meeting to the Circuit Court for the County of Washtenaw at its next session, and move the Court that the same be entered on the journals thereof.
