Judge Morison Dies in
Tennessee at 87 Years
I
Judge J. H. S. Morison, 87, of
Cumberland Gap, Tenn., passed
away' on Sept. 30 and was buried
from his home there.
Judge Morison was district
judge of the Second Division from
1934 until 1944, having been ap
pointed by President Roosevelt,
and he lived in Nome during those
years with his wife.
He is survived by his wife and !
daughter, who also spent some
time in Nome, and two grand
children.
We quote from a Tennessee
newspaper:
■‘Judge Morison was well liked
and highly regarded by the bar
and bench alike. Both as a lawyer
and a judge he combined an un
usual endowment of common
sense with a competent grasp of
the law. He was not easily excited,
yet never hesitated to defend his
views. He was a fair and impar
tial judge. He was the author of
‘Morison’s Pleadings and Forms,’
published in 1895.”
