Internationaler Buchtitel. In englischer Sprache. Verlag: Cambridge Scholars Publishing, 246 Seiten, L=152mm, B=229mm, H=14mm, Gew.=363gr, Kartoniert/Broschiert, Klappentext: Purchase of this book includes free trial access to www.million-books.com where you can read more than a million books for free. This is an OCR edition with typos. Excerpt from book: CHARLES O'CONOR. 1804-1884. HENRY ELLSWORTH GREGORY, of the New York Bar. THE bench and the bar of the state of New York, since the beginning of the national existence, have been distinguished by not a few men whose lives and labors may truthfully be described as memorable and illustrious. An enumeration of the most eminent of these would include names familiar to every student of American history, while two or three at least have won an international reputation. Others who never sought, or never attained distinction in the wider fields of statesmanship and diplomacy, by reason of their exceptional talents, their professional achievements, their learning, are rightly numbered among lawyers entitled to be called great, and were so regarded by their contemporaries. Among the latter one of the most notable is the subject of this essay. The sources of information about Charles O'Conor, apart from the reports and legal records, are neither numerous nor copious. Beyond certain short notices in biographical dictionaries, and a fewarticles in magazines and periodicals, brief commemorative addresses or essays, there is almost nothing. When we consider the eminence he attained, that he became early one of the leaders, and later the acknowledged leader of the New York bar, and continued in that position for a period of about forty years, it seems more than ordinarily singular that so little has been written about him. Of Mr. O'Conor it may be said, more truly than of the great majority of lawyers, that his life was in his cases; that they constitute his true biography. That Mr. O'Conor himself held this view is shown by the fact that he brought together the papers of his principal cases, had them expensively bound in Russia leather, the whole collection filling one hundred vol...<
