On December 1, 1897, Justice Field re- tired from the Supreme bench and was succeeded by Joseph McKenna of Cali- rnia, at that time Attorney General in the McKinley Cabinet. Justice Field tendered his_resignation in April, 1897, to take effect December 1. The President in his letter of acceptance of the resignation said: ‘“Upon your re- tirement hoth the bench and the court and country will sustain a great loss, but the high character and ability of your work will live and long be remembered, not only by your colleagues but by your grateful fellow-countrymen.” The Justice made the formal announce- ment of his resignation to his eolleagues on the bench in a long letter sketching his own and the court's history during s extended service.

WEST POINT, N.

The:candidates are attending the pr paratory schoc at Highland Falls prior to being examined at West Point next June for admission to the academy. There were about thirty of them in the ught, bui they were outnumbered three to one by the boys of the town. The trouble began with a hand-to-hand encounter and the crowd soon increased to such an extent that stone throwing took the place of flsts. Several of the candidates were more or less injured, the most seri- ously being U. S. Grant III. - appointed at large by the President. Young Grant was assisted to his quarters at the Cranston Hotel. Many of the boys of the town were also badly used up. The ~-rvices of all the doctors in town were required to dress the wounds of the injured.

He was also the author of the law that gives authority to the regulations and customs of miners in the settlement of Controversies among them, thus solving a perplexing problem. At the close of that session he returned to Marysville, and during the ensuing six vears devoted himself to his profession, gaining an extensive practice. In 1857 Field was elected Judge of the Supreme Court of California for six vears, beginning with January, 1858, but on the occurrence of a vacancy he was appointed to fill that office in .Ogtober, 18%7. On the resignation of Chlef Justice David 8. Terry in September, 1859, Judge Field succeeded him and continued in of- fice till his appointment to the Supreme bench of the United States by President Lincoln in 1863. In this re%nrd it should be observed that Judge Fleld was, with one exception, the latest surviving occupant of a Fed- eral bench who seryed under a commis- sion issued by President Lincoln. The ex- ception in this instance is Judge Henry (‘la)' tCn.ldwell of the United States Circuit Sourt. - Among the prominent decisions in which he has been concerned was the famous test oath case, in which he gave the cast- ing vote and wrote the opinion of the court, annulling the validity of the “iron- clad” oath. is dissenting opinions in the legal tender cases, in'the confiscation cases and in the New Orleans slaughter- house case, also attracted attention. Judge Field was a member of the Elec- toral Commission in 1877, and voted with the Democratic minority in the commis- sion on the Hayes-Tilden contest. In 1880 Judge Field was a eandidate for the Presidential nomination before the Democratic National Convention at Cin- cinnatl, and he received on the first ballot 6 votes. In 1873 he was appointed by the Gover- nor of this State one of a commission tg examine the California code of laws and 1o prepare amendments for the same for legislative _action. He recelved the de- gree of LL.D. from Williams College in 1864, and in 1869 was appointed professor of law in the University of California. Special interest was lent to Judge Field's career by his connection with the circumstances which culminated in the death of ex-Judge Terry August 14,-1889. Justice Field’s direct connection with Terry assumed tangible form when the suit of Sarah Althea Hill was filed against Senator Sharon for divorce.and alimony aggregating several millions. Terry was the plaintiff's counsel. A legal entangle- ment took the case to the 6nued States Circuit Court. During the litigation Terry married the plaintiff. His interest in the case was thus intensified by per- sonal Influence. = When Justice ield rendered the decision defeating the plain- tiff’s suit Terry manifested no little re- SR fermard 1t ted that T erward it was repor at Te: meditated personal violence toward {g Federal Judge.
