Wayne County Lawyers Honor Judge Fox in Friday Meeting

Members of the Wayne County Bar association and the representatives of the bars of Henry, Randolph, Fayette and Union counties paid tribute to the memory of the late Judge Henry C. Fox at a meeting held Friday In the Wayne- circuit court room, presided over by William A. Bond, judge of the court. A memorial, nrenared hv a. commit tee composed of John L. Rupe, Ray K. J Shiveley and Wilfred Jessup, was , adopted after it had been read by Mr. Rupe. A memorial from the Jay county bar was also read and brief addresses were made by Raymond Springer, judge of the Fayette circuit court, Judge William Barnard of Newcastle, former representative in con- . i i k m, i . i ts Sit'. luciirtiu in. ciuuu oi v.ouiiers-j vine, representative in congress, ijon Bales, judge-elect of the Randolph circuit court, and George Pigman. of Liberty. Various-members of the Wayne county bar also spoke, including A. L. Study who, at the death of Judge Fox became dean of the bar. All the speakers praised Judge Fox as a citizen, lawyer, soldier and jurist. He declared to have been one of the greatest lawyers Indiana has produced. The memorial adopted by the bar association reads: Henry Clay Fox, the subject of this memorial, was born on a farm near West Elkton, Preble county, Ohio,; January 20th, 1836. j He died suddenly and without pre-' monitory warning, either to himself, or his family, of heart failure at his! home in this city on the afternoon of: Monday, November 22, 1920. at the ; time of his death having attained the unusual age of 84 years and 10 months. ; His boyhood was spent on the farm' of his father in Preble county, Ohio,'! where he attended the local schools, ! and later spent one year in study at' Whitewater College at Centerville, this county. j He was not a college graduate. He: was a teacher of the school in the ; neighborhood of his home for four years, and while so engaged embraced! the opportunity it offered for study to: enlarge the scope of his own educa-j tion. i His father, Levi Fox, who was inj every way an excellent man and cit-l izen, and who had devoted his life and talents to agriculture, removed to Cen-, terville, this county, in 1860, where he i resided with his family until his ' death, which occurred in 1867. i Upon the removal of the family to; Centerville, Judge Fox began the sys-i tematic study of the law as a student in the law office of George W. Julien, who afterward represented this district in congress for a number of years, and later he continued his j studies under Judge Nimrod H. John-; son, who at that time was a leading; member of the bar of this county, lo-j cated at Centerville. ' ! He was admitted to the bar of this i county in 1861. i The Civil .war had then begun and1 the 57th regiment, Indiana Volunteer Infantry, was being recruited, and he ; volunteered as a member of Company C of that regiment, and upon its or-: ganization was commissioned first ' lieutenant of his company and in this j office served thirteen months participating with his regiment in the import-; ant battle of Pittsburgh Landing. Soon after this, after his being confined for a time in an army hospital, I he resigned from the military service j on account of failing health and re-, turned to his home in this county. ! In May, 1861 he was married to Miss Helen S. Linsley, of Trumbull County, Ohio, a lady of much musical i talent, and with whom he lived happilv until her death, which occurred at i iheir home in this city in 1912. j Of this union three children were ; born, Francis L. Fox. Frederick H. Fox and Florence F. Black, all of whom survive their father. Upon Judge Fox's return from military service, he began the practice of law, locating at Hagerstown this coun-1 ty. He formed a partnership with Judee Nimrod H. Johnson, then a1 leading member of this bar, which continued until Judge Johnson was elected Judge of the Criminal Court of this county. About or near this time Judge Fox removed to Centerville then the county seat, and formed a partnership with William A. Peelle t-nder the name of Peele & Fox, which firm continued in business for some ears and enjoyed a large and extensive practice. Upon the removal of the county seat from Centerville to Richmond, he removed to Richmond, where he resumed the practice, practicing alone until 1877, when he formed a partnership with John L. Rupe which continued about one year and until Judge Fox was elected judse of the Superior Court of thi county, at tli? October f lection of 1878, defeating Judge Wm. ' A. Bickle. who had been appointed Judge of that court upon ils organization. He served as Judge of the Superior Court from the date of his election in October. 1873 until the meeting oi Hie legislature in the following January when the court was abolished by an act of the legislature. Upon the abolishing of the Superior Court Judge Fox resumed the practice alone for a t'me, but later formed a partnership with John F. Robbins, which partnership continued until the election of Judge Fox as judge of this court in 1896. which office he held by

GRAND HOME COMING

re-elections continuously until nine days prior to hie death. In 1862 he was elected district attorney for the common pleas district, then composed of the counties of Wayne, Union, Fayette and Franklin, and was reelected to that office in 1864, serving two full terms. In August. 1892, he was appointed by the governor, one of the judges of the Indiana appellate court, to fill a vacancy occurring on that bench. He was nominated by the Republican state convention as the Republican candidate for that office, but was defeated

with the Republican ticket at the election, so that his term of service in that office was only from the date of bis appointment in August to the date of election of his successor at the election next ensuing. For nearly two years . prior to his death. Judge Fox found' himself, because of the natural infirmities of age, unable to perform the duties of his office in a satisfactory manner to himself, and appointed Judge William A. Bond judge pro tern of his court ad who has discharged the duties of the office during this period, and is now holding the office as Judge Fox's successor by election. Much has been written and published in the local press of the family history and the family of our deceased friend and associate at the bar, and your committee has believed that, it is mainly as a lawyer and judge that we should deal in our estimate of the character and ability of our deceased brother lawyer. In the early days of his practice as a laer he was unusually diffident, modest and distrustful of his own abilities. He very soon overcame this however and in a very brief time took rank with and was recognized by, the great lawyers of that day as an equal with them. During the entire time of his active practice at the bar, he had and held a large clientage, who had entire confidence both in his ability as a lawyer and his integrity as a man. There were few cases of importance in the courts of this county, while he was in active practice, civil or criminal, in which he did not actively participate. His reputation as a trial lawyer was so widely known that his services were often sought in important litigation in many of the counties of the state. The thought is sometimes expressed by those of his fellow members of the bar who have known his during most of his life, whether his ability and talents were not better adapted to the active and sharp contests, in the practice at the bar, than to the often dull routine of the duties of the bench;

and whether his happiest -days have not been those in which he met formidable antagonists in contested litigation, and measured wit, resource and ability with them. He was and was recognized always, by all the standards by which the profession judges its members, an ex-, cellent lawyer; a strong and formid-" able advocate, industrious and painstaking in the preparation of his case, loyal to the cause of his client and courteous and kind to his adversaries. His long career and service on the bench as a judge has been conspicuous, for his comprehension of legal principles, his quick grasp of the material questions involved in a cause being tried before him, and for his uniform kindness and courtesy to all engaged in legal controversy before him. His very nature precluded any idea of arbitrary action as a judge. He sought to know the law as applicable to the particular case and to administer it justly. His integrity as a lawyer or judge was never in question. His services while on the bench were much sought in important cases in many of the counties of the state. With those of us who have known him and been associated with him while he was in active practice at the bar, and also during his long service upon the bench, his memory will be cherished with most pleasure and affection as a friend. He was a steadfast friend. His nature was kindly. While he held tenaciously to his own 'views and opinions he was considerate and charitable of the opinions of others. He had a keen sense of humor which made him a delightful companion. His friendships were steadfast and

! lasting. His popularity with the people generally is evidenced by his election to every office to which he aspired, in the locality where he was known. He was largely a self educated man ; of domestic habits and inclinations, in his home he was a student of the best literature and he developed credHaving been allowed to live more than the four score years, allotted man to live, permitted unusual measure of physical health, except for the mists which necessarily come as shadows with such advanced age, he was mercifully permitted to pass into the great beyond in a moment without suffering or conscious pain.
