THEED T
First Session of Court Adjourned in
Respect to Judge Ostrander and
Judge d’Heirry.
When i he district court opened at
Cordova on Tuesday the only business
transacted was the reading of resolu
tions in memory of Judge John Y.
Ostrander, of Cordova, who died Sun
day at Olympia, and also the pass
ing of resolutions in memory of Judge
Paul d’Heirry, of Chitina, who died
early Monday morning. At tae con
clusion of the tributes to the mem
ory of the two men, court adjourned
for the day. The resolutions, as
printed in the Cordova Alaskan, fol
low:
Resolutions in memory of Judge
Ostrander, prepared by the committee
appointed for the purpose, were read
by S. P. Chapin. Addresses eulogistic
of Judge Ostrander were made by C.
M. Frazier and E. E. Ritchie.
Resolutions drafted by the same
committee in honor of Mr. d’Heirry
were then read by E. E. Ritchie, who
spoke briefly of the deceased. He was
followed by Judge Walker, who eulog
ized both the men in whose honor
the court had set aside business. F.
H. Foster spoke briefly of Paul
d’Heirry.
Judge Brown added a few words
to the remarks of previous speakers,
and directed that the resolutions be
spread upon the records of the court.
He then adjourned court fo rtlie day.
The resolutions follow:
John Y. Ostrander.
Resolved: That the members of the
bar practicing in the Third judicial
division of Alaska desire to record
their sense of the loss that has come
to the profession and to the territory
in the death of John Y. Ostrander.
During his residence and practice
of his profession for nearly twenty
years in Alaska, Judge Ostrander
maintained an enviable reputation as
an able and conscientious* lawyer.
For many years he was engaged in
a majority of the important cases !
coming before the court in the Third ;
division and was eminently successful. |
Yet his ambition and taste lay rather j
to office practice. He believed it was I
the duty ol' a lawyer to keep his j
clients out of court whenever possible I
and his advice always tended to that j
consummation. j
Judge Ostrander possessed a natur
al legal mind. He had an intuitive \
grasp of legal principles and rarely ;
erred in the reason of the law. He i
was industrious and painstaking in j
all his work and when he had careful I
ly analyzed a case his conclusions j
were almost certain to be a correct
exposition of the law.
As a citizen John Y. Ostrander was
upright in all his conduct. He was
honest and truthful to all men. His
personal habits were above reproach
and his family life ideal.
As a slight tribute to his memory
and testimonial of the esteem in which
he was held by the members of his
own profession we ask the court to
spread these resolutions upon its
permanent records.
Paul d’Heirry.
Resolved: That the members of
the bar of the Third judicial division
have learned with regret of the death
of Paul d’Heirry, a member of the
Maska bar and commissioner of the
Cfhitina precinct.
Judge d’Heirry had been engaged
n the practice of law for many years
in the state of Washington and in
the Territory of Alaska an,d while he
had not been in active practice in the
Third division, where he lived for the
last three years of his life, he was
regarded by the members of the hai
rs one of their number and was much
respected by all of them.
In the death of Paul d’Heirry the
Territory of Alaska loses a much
sst emed citizen who has been identi
fied with Alaskan affairs since the
first gold excitement now nearly two
decades ago. He had a wide personal
acquaintance and many friends in all
divisions of the territory. He was a
man of much natural ability and the
highest personal integrity.
