To the formation of this regiment the county of Henry contributed more than one full company, and the surplus was transferred to a separate company in the same regiment. Company B was made up wholly of residents of this county, and it is in recognition of their services in the regiment that this record is made. The One Hundredth regiment was organized at Toledo, during the months of June and July, 1862, and was mustered into service on the 15th of July following, by Captain Dodds, U. S. Army. On the Seth of the same month, the regiment moved to Cincinnati, for the defense of that city. On the 9th it went . into position on Covington Heights, a few rods in front, and to the left of Fort Mitchell. The regiment marched for Lexington, Ky., on the 8th of October, and remained there, undergoing a thorough course of instruction, until about the 1st of December, when it moved to Richmond. It was engaged in work on the fortifications until the 26th of December, when it moved to Danville, and on the 3d of January, 1863, it moved to Frankfort. Toward the last of February it marched to Lexington to intercept a rebel raid, and from that point it marched to Crab Orchard, Mount Vernon, Somerset, and to various other points where the presence of the enemy rendered it necessary. On the 13th of August, the regiment went into camp at Danville, preparatory for the march for East Ten- 134 - HISTORY OF HENRY AND FULTON COUNTIES. nessee. Upon arriving at Knoxville, a portion of the regiment was sent up to the Virginia State line, to guard the railroad. The detachment, two hundred and forty strong, was captured by the enemy on the 4th of September, and was sent to Richmond, Va. The regiment participated in the defense at Knoxville, and was on active duty during its stay in East Tennessee. Early in the spring of 1864, the regiment marched in the Twenty-third Army Corps, to join General Sherman, then at Tunnell Hill, Ga. It moved on the Atlanta campaign, and was engaged at almost every battle from Rocky Face Ridge to Atlanta. On the 6th of August it was engaged in an assault on the rebel works in front of Atlanta, and lost one hundred and three men out of three hundred. Thirty-six men were killed on the field, and eighty more died of wounds within the next thirty days. The colonel was disabled for life. After the evacuation of Atlanta, the regiment joined in the pursuit of Hood's army, and participated in the battles of Franklin and Nashville. It moved with the Twenty-third Corps to Wilmington, N. C., and was there actively engaged, It marched into the interior, and moved from Goldsboro to Raleigh, with Sher- man's army. It next moved to Greensboro, and from there to Cleveland, 0 , where it was mustered out of the service on the 1st of July, 1865, having served nearly three full years with the Union army. The One Hundredth lost during its term of service sixty-five men killed in action, and one hundred and forty-two wounded ; twenty-seven died of wounds ; one hundred and eight died of disease ; three hundred and twenty- five were captured by the enemy, and eighty-five died in rebel prisons. The regiment participated in the battles of Lenox Station, Knoxville, Rocky Face Ridge, Resaca, Dallas, Etowah Creek, Atlanta, Columbus, Franklin, Nashville, Town Creek and Wilmington.

To the formation of this regiment, the county of Henry contributed parts of two companies, D and G, but the contingent of men in each was so small that it can hardly be said that either company was a Henry county contribu- 136 - HISTORY OF HENRY AND FULTON COUNTIES. tion. The regiment was recruited from the northern counties of Ohio, with the exception of Company I, which came from Cincinnati. The regiment rendezvoused at Camp Taylor, and on the first day of January, 1863, marchec into Cleveland, seven hundred and fifty strong, ready to take the cars for the field. When the regimental organization became perfect, it was commanded as follows : Colonel, Oliver H. Payne ; lieut- col., James Pickards; major, James B. Hameson. After leaving for the field the regiment made its first camp at Elizabeth- :own, Ky., where it remained until March, when it returned to Louisville, and embarked on board transports, and in company with twenty thousand other roops, proceeded to Nashville, Tenn., where it arrived on the l0th. From Nashville it went to Franklin and encamped, remaining there until June 2d, )wilding forts, perfecting its drill, and getting ready for active field service. On the 5th of March the " boys " had a sharp skirmish with the rebels who were in the vicinity. The One Hundred and Twenty-fourth, with three other infantry regiments, battery and some cavalry, under General Colburn, were sent on a reconnoisance down the Columbia Pike. For a time they drove back the enemy, until Thompson's Ford was reached, when a general engagement ensued. The eneny were much stronger and better posted than was expected, but the fight was stubbornly contested for some time, until the One Hundred and Twenty-fourth vere enabled to safely guard the ammunition train and take it from the field. On the 2d of June the camp at Franklin was abandoned and another )itched at Triune. A few days later the regiment was ordered to join General N. B. Hazen's brigade at Readyville. Again, after a reconnaissance to Elk River, they went into camp at Manchester. Here the regiment was assigned o the Second Brigade, Second Division of the Twenty-first Army Corps, with General Palmer as division, and General Crittenden as corps commander. The corps then in August, crossed over the Cumberland Mountains in time o participate in the battle at Chickamauga, where it held a position on the left. Although this was the first severe. fight in which the regiment took part, it nevertheless held its ground firmly, and stood well up to the work, and only .after the lines were broken and the full force of the enemy's charge and fire vere concentrated upon them, did the regiment fall back. During the Chickamauga battle the regiment lost in killed, wounded, and missing, one hundred and forty men. They then retreated to Chattanooga, and went into camp on he 22d of September. While here the army was reorganized, and the One Hundred and Twenty-fourth was assigned to the Second Brigade, Third Divison, of the Fourth Army Corps. It next participated in the engagement at Raccoon Mountain, where the enemy's position was taken, and after camping there a few days, was relieved, Ind returned to camp at Chattanooga. HENRY COUNTY - 137 The regiment next took part in the battle of Mission Ridge, in which the men performed nobly, fought lively, and captured seven pieces of artillery, two cassions, eighty stand of arms, and a wagon-load of ammunition. Its loss here was twenty-three killed, four wounded, and nineteen missing. On the 30th of November the regiment, with a portion of the army, marched to the relief of Knoxville, where it arrived on the T0th of December, but other re-enforcements having come earlier, the siege was raised, and the enemy retired from before that place. After remaining here a few days, the regiment went into camp at Clinch Mountain. From here they were driven by a large force of Confederates. About the 13th of April, 1864, under an order from the war department to concentrate the army, preparatory to the spring campaign, the One Hundred and Twenty-fourth moved to McDonald Station, about thirty miles east of Chattanooga, where it was thoroughly clothed and equipped. After a tew days of rest the regiment marched to Tunnel Hill Station, on the railroad, and thence to Rocky Face Ridge. At this point the enemy was engaged, making a strong charge against his works, in which it suffered severely. Marching and fighting continuously, it made its way to Dalton, and from there to Resaca, Cassville and New Hope Church. Here, again, it was engaged, and lost many brave men. The regiment then participated in the flanking movement to Jonesboro, and consequent evacuation of Atlanta, after which came a much needed rest of thirty days. It then followed Hood's army to Gaylesville and Athens, Ala. ; thence to Pulaski and Columbia, passing through Franklin, and reaching Nashville in advance of the main forces, and went into camp behind the entrenchments of that place. In the battle of Nashville it took an active part, and at its close, joined in the pursuit of the defeated and demoralized rebel army. At Huntsville the chase was given up, and the force went into camp. From here it was ordered to Strawberry Plains, in East Tennessee. Thence back through Greenville to Nashville, where, on the 9th of July, 1865, the regiment was mustered out of service. It was then sent home, and was paid off and discharged at Camp Taylor, near Cleveland, the place from which it started two and one- half years before. On account of the small number of men from this county who were in companies D and G, of the One Hundred and Twenty-fourth Regiment, and the great difficulty in locating them accurately, no roster is given. ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY-THIRD REGIMENT-ONE HUNDRED DAYS SERVICE. The One Hundred and Sixty-third Infantry Regiment was composed of the Forty-eighth Regiment, Ohio National Guard, of Richland county, the Seventy-second Battalion, Ohio National Guard, of Henry county, the Ninety- 138 - HISTORY OF HENRY AND FULTON COUNTIES. sixth battalion, Ohio National Guard, of Ashland county, and the Ninety-ninth Battalion, Ohio National Guard, of Stark county. The regiment was mustered into the United States service at Camp Chase, Ohio, on the 12th day of May, 1864, and on the 13th of the same month it proceeded to Washington City, under orders from General Heintzelman, commanding the department of Ohio. Upon arrival at Washington the regiment was assigned to the First Brigade, First Division, Twenty-second Army Corps, with headquarters at Fort Reno, District of Columbia. The regiment remained here on duty until the 8th of June, when it was ordered to the front, and proceeded in transports to White House, Virginia, and thence to Bermuda Hundred. It reported to General Butler, at Point of Rocks, Va., on the 12th of June, and on the 14th took part (with General Turner's division) in a reconnaissance on the Petersburg and Richmond Railroad. Two hundred and fifty of the men were engaged in a severe skirmish on the 15th, and were highly complimented by the brigade commander, who said, " they comported themselves like veterans." On the 16th the regiment proceeded to Wilson's Landing, and from that point made several reconnaissances to the west side of the James River. It also assisted in building a large portion of the works known as Fort Pocahontas. On the 29th of August the regiment was relieved from duty, and proceeded to Columbus, 0., where it was mustered out September 10, 1864. The Seventy-second Battalion, Ohio National Guard, of Henry county, when mustered into service became Company G, about eighty-five strong. Field and Staff Officers.—Hiram Miller, colonel ; John Dempsey, lieutenant-colonel; Aaron S. Campbell, major ; Alex. Sutherland, surgeon; James 0, Carter, ass't-surgeon ; David C.

This was one of the regiments raised under President Lincoln's last call for one year troops. It was organized in February, 1865, at Camp Chase. To the formation of the regiment Henry County contributed one full company, B. Immediately after muster the regiment was ordered to Nashville, and from thence proceeded to Chattanooga; thence to Bridgeport, Alabama, reaching the latter point about the 2 I st of March, and was engaged in the duty of guarding an important railroad bridge over the Tennessee river. It also acted as guard over a considerable line of railroad between Bridgeport and Chattanooga and frequently came in contact with guerrillas that infested the region, and squads of rebel cavalry. On the 25th of July the regiment was ordered to garrison duty at Edgfield and remained at that place until mustered out of service. Returning to Camp Chase, the men were paid off and discharged on the 27th day of September, 1865. In the One Hundred and Eighty-fourth was much excellent material—many of the men having been in the service in other regiments—and although while in this command they were in no general engagement, they, nevertheless, rendered important service in the country to which they were assigned. IN OTHER COMMANDS. While the record above mentioned purports to, and does contain the experiences and vicissitudes of the regiments and parts of. regiments from Henry county, still there were other commands in which the county was represented, but with so small a number of men as to make an extended notice of them unnecessary. Looking over the records of the county's soldiery it is found that there was a small contingent of the One Hundred and Twenty-fifth representing the county in Company I. On the field and staff roster is found the name of Dr. Henry McHenry, who was the regimental surgeon. In all there were about fifteen men from this county that belonged to the regiment. Then, again, it is found that several, not more, men of the county enlisted in the Ninth Cavalry, which was commanded by Colonel William D. Hamilton. The Eighth, Ninth and Tenth Regiments, O. V. Cav., were raised late in 1862 by Governor Tod, under the instructions of the president. Other regiments that had a few representatives of Henry County, were the 140 - HISTORY OF HENRY AND FULTON COUNTIES. Third Cavalry, the Twenty-first Infantry, the Eighty-eighth Infantry, the One Hundred and Eleventh Infantry, the One Hundred and Eighteenth, the One Hundred and Twenty-eighth Infantry, and perhaps others of which no record can .be accurately obtained. CHAPTER XIII. THE BENCH AND BAR IT was many years after the organization of Ohio before the northwestern . portion of the State had either Bench or Bar ; and for a long time after the territorial government had ceased the only courts known were the Indian council and the court martial, while the bar consisted of the feathered chief and the uniformed commander. The jurisprudence of the State, as of all the northwestern territory embraced in the Virginia cession, was founded on the common law of England, modified and construed by the several charters of King James I to the early settlers of Virginia, and by the ordinance of 1787. In 1793, by the territorial legislature, a statute was adopted from Virginia declaring " that the common law of England and all statutes made in aid of the common law prior to the fourth year of James I, which were of a general nature, should be a rule of decision until repealed." By the second section of the act of February 22, 1805, this act was repealed, but by the first section of the act was re-enacted ; it was again repealed January 2, 1806. So it may safely be said that the British statutes never had any effect in Ohio save as adopted by the Legislature, [t Chase, 190, 512, 528]. The English common law, however, so far as reasonable in itself, suitable to the condition and business of our people, and consistent with the letter and spirit of the Federal and State constitutions and statutes, ever has been and is followed by our courts and may be said to constitute a part of the common law of Ohio. [2 O. S. 387.] After the organization of the State by the adoption of the constitution of 1802, the written law of Ohio may be said to have commenced, but the practice was far from uniform, and it was not until 1845, when the able work of Joseph R. Swan, whose name needs no title to the bar of Ohio, Practice and Precedents, was published, that uniformity began to prevail with either bench or bar. Previous to that time, paraphrasing from the preface of that able work, most of the members of the bar and bench, whose opinions moulded our judicial system, had pursued their legal studies in other States of the Union, and brought with them a high respect for the practice and decisions of the courts HENRY COUNTY - 141 where they were educated. Almost all the States of the Union had been thus represented at our bar and upon our bench, and had produced a very great diversity of law in different parts of the State. In truth, a local common law existed to some extent in each judicial circuit. In one the English common law was looked to as the only pure fountain ; in another the common law of England was modified by the laws of New York; in another the common law of Massachusetts ; in another of Connecticut ; in another of Pennsylvania. The statutes of the State indicated the same heterogeneousness. The practice act came from New Jersey ; the attachment law from Pennsylvania ; the administration law from Massachusetts, and the non-imprisonment act from New York. This state of things sometimes gave rise to divisions of opinions in the court in bank, and often subjected the adjudications to severe and unjust criticism. It is certainly no disparagement to the many able jurists who aided in giving to Ohio a uniform and perfect system of jurisprudence, to say that to Judge Swan is the bench and bar of Ohio most indebted for the desirable consummation; and his work at once became the law of practice to bench and bar throughout the State, and remained so until the enactment of the code of civil procedure in 1853, after the adoption of the Constitution of 1851. The common law as to crimes, and the mode of procedure in criminal cases, was never in force in Ohio—all this was the matter of legislative enactments. [I O. 132, 2 O. S. 387, 10 O. S. 287.] The history of the various revisions and codifications of the statutory law and modes of procedure within Ohio is interesting, and is so concisely and accurately stated in the preface to the first addition of the revised statutes made by the codifying commission, appointed under the act of March 27, 1875, and published in 1880, that we copy hterally : "The first revision was made during the session of the Legislature held at Chillicothe, in 1804-5, at which all the laws, with few exceptions, adopted by the governor and judges, or enacted by the Legislature under the territorial government were repealed. That revision embraced statutes for the administration of justice, the conveyance of property, the collection of the revenue, the organization of the militia and the punishment of crime, and other statutes previously adopted or enacted were amended and re-enacted. "With these statutes for a basis other legislatures followed the example, and, accordingly, the laws were revised at the session of 1809-10,, the session of 1815-1816, the session 1823-1824 and the session of 1830-1831, each revision being an improvement on that which preceded it, the practice and other remedial statutes gradually becoming more liberal and the penal enactments more humane. "In 1835 the statute relating to felonies was again revised and further provision was made to simplify the practice, and in 184o, an act relating to the :settlement of the estates of deceased persons, based on the statute of Massa- 142 - HISTORY OF HENRY AND FULTON COUNTIES. chusetts, was prepared by Joseph R. Swan and enacted by the General Assembly.. The principal part of it has remained without change to the present day. At the same session the statutes in relation to wills, elections and other subjects, were revised. "Meanwhile the statutes had become so numerous and had fallen into such confusion that a systematic republication of the laws in force had become a necessity. Fortunately the work was undertaken by one competent for the task, and it is only just to say that with the material before him, and in the absence of all power to change it, perhaps no other man would have been able to produce a collection of our statutes so admirable in all that pertains to the work of an editor, as Swan's Statutes of 1841. In 1854-5, in 1860 and in 1868, Judge Swan performed the same task of collecting and arranging the statutes in force, the notes to the edition of 1860 having been prepared by Leander J. Critchfield, and the notes to the edition of 1868 by Milton Sayler. While these editions of the statutes have now become comparatively useless, they are none the less monuments to the industry and ability of the gentlemen who were engaged in their preparation. " In this connection it will not be out of place to notice a collection of the statutes of a more permanent character. In 1833-1835 (subsequently Chief Justice) Chase prepared an edition of the statutes. It included the territorial laws, whether adopted by the governor and judges, or enacted by the territorial legislatures and the statutes down to and including those of 1833. This embraced seven volumes of territorial laws and thirty volumes of the statutes of the State, and the whole was republished in chronological order in three volumes. The work was continued on substantially the same plan by Maskell E, Curwen, who republished in four volumes, the general laws from 1834 to 1860, inclusive. Since the death of Mr. Curwen, the work has been continued by J. R. Sayler, who has republished, in four volumes, the general laws from 1861 to 1875, inclusive. "It will thus be seen that the statutes of Chase, Curwen and Sayler—all admirably edited—are a republication of all the general laws adopted or enacted under the territorial and State governments from 1788 to 1875, inclusive, in the order of the original publication. While only a very small number of the statutes which these volumes contain remains in force, the remarks of Judge Chase with respect to them in his first volume are entirely just. ' Many questions of right and remedy,' said he, 'depend upon the provisions of repealed statutes. In reference to such questions the examination of the whole series of laws affecting them is a matter of absolute necessity. In addition to this, a knowledge of the acts repealed is often essential to a correct understanding of the law in force. No lawyer, nor intelligent legislator ought to be satisfied with knowing what the law is, unless he also knows what the law has been." HENRY COUNTY - 143 " Recurring to the subject of codification it is evident that it had engaged the attention of the people to some extent, previous to the adoption of the present constitution. Provision was made in that instrument for a commission ; and it was ordained that ' said commissioners shall revise, reform, simplify and abridge the practice, pleadings, forms, and proceedings of the courts of record of this State ; and as far as practicable and expedient shall provide for the abolition of the distinct forms of actions at law now in use, and for the administration of justice by a uniform mode of proceeding, without reference to any distinction between law and equity.' " In obedience to that provision an act was passed and William Kennon, William S. Groesbeck, and Daniel O. Morton were appointed commissioners. They confined their labors to the subject of practice in civil cases, and reported what was known as the code of civil procedure, to the fiftieth General Assembly, and that body on March 11, 1853, adopted it Though somewhat changed in language and arrangement, the principal part of it remains substantially as it was reported by those commissioners. "With the growth of the State in population and wealth, the annual volumes of the general laws increased in size until the statutes of a general nature, in force, exceed two thousand in number. The subject of codification then began to attract attention here as in other places. In 1869 a bill prepared by Senators Charles H. Scribner, Daniel B. Linn, and Homer Everett, codifying the statutes in relation to municipal corporations, became a law, as did also a bill embodying a code of criminal procedure, which had been prepared by Senator Frank H. Hurd. The subject was further agitated and finally, in 1874, Representative George W. Boyce, of Hamilton county, introduced a bill providing for such codification. Subsequently, Senator Lucian C. Jones, of Trumbull, Trumbull county, introduced a bill on the same subject, which, on March 27, 1875, became a law. [72 v. 87]. The following are its leading features : "The governor was required, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, to appoint three competent commissioners to revise and consolidate the general statutes of the State, and he was authorized to fill any vacancy in the oommission. " In performing the duty the commissioners were required to bring together all the statutes and parts of statutes relating to the same matter, omitting redundant and obsolete enactments, and such as had no influence on existing rights or remedies, and making alterations to reconcile contradictions, supply omissions, and amend imperfections in the original acts, so as to reduce the general statutes into as concise and comprehensive a form as might be consistent with clear expression of the will of the General Assembly, rejecting all equivocal and ambiguous words and circuitous and tautological phraseology. "They were required to arrange the statutes under suitable titles, divisions, subdivisions, chapters, and sections, with head notes briefly expressive of the 144 - HISTORY OF HENRY AND FULTON COUNTIES. matter contained therein, with marginal notes of the contents of each section, with reference to the original act from which it was compiled, and foot notes of the decisions of the Supreme Court upon the same ; and they were required to report the whole, in print, to the general assembly for its adoption. “On the day of the passage of the bill Governor Allen appointed, and the Senate unanimously confirmed, Michael A. Daugherty, Luther Day, and John W. Okey as the commissioners. Commissions were issued to them on that day, and immediately thereafter they entered upon their duties.. Judge Day continued to be a member of the commission until February I, 1876, when he resigned, having been appointed a member of the Supreme Court commission, and John S. Brasec was appointed by Governor Hayes to fill the vacancy, and Judge Okey continued to be a member of the commission until November 9, 1877, when he resigned, having been elected a judge of the Supreme Court, and George B. Okev was appointed by Governor Young to fill the vacancy. No other changes were made in the commission." The codified or revised statutes consist of four parts. The first part (Politcal) contains the enactments which are organic, being the frame-work and machinery of our government ; the second part (Civil) relates to person and property; the third part (Remedial) includes everything connected with civil procedure in all the courts ; and the fourth part (Penal) embraces the provisions relating to crimes, criminal procedure, and jails and the penitentiary. Constitution of 1802.—Under the Constitution of 1802 the judicial power of the State, both as to matters of law and equity, was vested in a Supreme Court, in Court of Common Pleas for each county, in justices of the peace, and in such other courts as the Legislature might establish. " Such other courts " were never established in this section of the State. The Supreme Court consisted of three judges—two of whom formed a quorum. It had original and appellate jurisdiction, both in law and in chancery, in such cases as the Legislature might direct, and which would be beyond the province of this chapter to enumerate. The Legislature was empowered to add another judge to the number after five years, and in that event the judges were authorized to divide the State into two circuits within which any two could hold court. The Courts of Common Pleas consisted of a president and two associate judges. The State was required by law to be divided into three circuits with a president judge for each circuit, and not "more than three nor less than two" associate judges for each county. Any three of these judges constituted a quorum and composed the Court of Common Pleas, and had common law and chancery jurisdiction, and also jurisdiction of all probate and testamentary matters and of guardians and minors, and of criminal cases. Clerks were appointed by the court for a term of seven years. Power was conferred on the Legislature to increase the number of circuits and of the president judges after the HENRY COUNTY - 145 expiration of five years. The Supreme Court was required to be held once a year in each county. All judges were appointed by a joint ballot of both houses of the General Assembly, and held office for the term of seven years, " if so long they behaved well." Justices of the peace were elected in each township and held office for three years. Their " powers and duties were " regulated and defined by law." The destruction of the records by the fire of 1847, renders it very difficult to give a detailed or concise history of the courts held in the county or the names and time of service of the officers. Henry county was formed by an act of the Legislature passed 1820 [3 Chase, 2134]. By act of February 2, 1824 [3 Chase, 2137], the county was for judicial purposes attached to Williams, with the county seat at Defiance, and became a part of the second circuit. [1 Curwen, 115.] In 1834 the county was authorized to elect county officers, but it was not until 1835 that a perfect organization was had, and in that year the first court was held in Napoleon, which had been made the county seat. The officers of that first court were: David Higgins, president judge ; David J. Cory, Reuben Waite, and Pierce Evans, associate judges ; J. N. Evans, clerk ; E. Husted, sheriff, and Frederick Lord, prosecuting attorney. Judge Higgins was succeeded as president judge in 1837 by Ozias Bowen, who continued to hold the courts of the county until the Legislature on the 16th of February, 1835 [1 Curwen, 518], created the thirteenth judicial circuit, which was composed of Lucas, Wood, Henry, Williams, Paulding, Putnam, Van Wert, Allen, Hardin, and Hancock—Defiance, Auglaize, and Fulton had not then yet been created. Of this circuit Emery D. Potter was elected first president judge in the same month that the circuit was created, and continued to hold the courts of the county until in the winter of 1844, when he resigned to take a seat in Congress, to which he had been elected in October preceding. Judge Potter was succeeded by Myron H. Tilden, who continued in office about eighteen months, when he also resigned. In February, 1845 [2 Curwen, 1086], the sixteenth circuit was formed and the thirteenth reorganized so as to be composed of the counties of Henry, Wood, Lucas, Ottawa, Sandusky, Huron, and Erie. Ebenezer B. Saddler, of Sandusky City, was elected president judge, and held court in the county until February 22, 1847 [2 Curwen, 1374], when the eighteenth circuit was created, consisting of the counties of Putnam, Van Wert, Paulding, Defiance, Williams, and Henry. To this circuit Fulton county was attached January , 1851 [2 Curwen, 1593]. George B. Way, of Defiance, was elected president judge at the same time the circuit was formed, and continued to hold the courts of Common Pleas until the Constitution of 1851 took effect. 146 - HISTORY OF HENRY AND FULTON COUNTIES. The last term of the Court of Common Pleas, under the old judicial system, was begun and held in Napoleon, on the 19th day of November, 1851. The president judge was George B. Way, the associates, Amos Cole, Samuel B. Jones, and John Knapp ; Hazel Strong was clerk, and Daniel Yarnel, sheriff; the prosecuting attorney was Edward Sheffield. At that term, which lasted only four days, the following preamble and resolutions were entered on the journal, vol. I, p. 342 : " WHEREAS, By the organization of our new judicial system under the new Constitution, our worthy and esteemed president judge of this judicial circuit, the Hon. George B. Way, leaves the bench, we feel it not only a high privilege but a duty to express our opinion and appreciation of his distinguished judicial career ; therefore, as embodying our feelings, we adopt the following resolutions: " Resolved, That we look with regret upon the retiracy from the bench of the Hon. George B. Way, for, while occupying that high position, the clearness of his judgments, his high legal abilities, the variety of his attainments, the amenity of his manners, has shed a lustre upon his high station, and made the practice of our profession before him not only a pleasure but a sort of improvement ; that it delights us to approve his official conduct and to pay spontaneously this tribute to his judicial worth. " Resolved, That, if in our practice before him, we may have said or done anything that has pained or temporarily wounded his sensibilities, we ask that it may be forgotten and forgiven. " Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be signed by the members of the bar present and presented to the Hon. George B. Way, and entered upon the minutes of the court, and a copy furnished to each of the Defiance papers for publication." This paper was signed by H. F. Wait, William Sheffield, William H. Hall, H. S. Comminger, J. C. Spink, James 0. Caldwell, James G. Haly, E. Sheffield, and William H. Moe. Of these early president judges there are still living Emory D. Potter, of the city of Toledo, and Ebenezer B. Saddler, of Sandusky City. Myron H. Tilden, after his resignation, became president of the Cincinnati law school. Ozias Bowen was afterwards elected one of the supreme judges of the State, retiring in February, 1858. The Early Bar.—It was a good many years before the bar had a " local habitation" in Henry county. At the time of its organization Frederick Lord, who has already been mentioned as prosecuting attorney, and William B. Berry, who succeeded Lord as prosecutor, were the only attorneys living in the county. In 1840 James G. Haly was admitted to the bar, and became the third prosecuting attorney. He in turn was succeeded by James McKenzie, who, after serving one year, resigned and took editorial charge of the Venture, HENRY COUNTY - 147 a Democratic paper started at Kalida, then the county seat of Putnam county. Mr. McKenzie afterwards became one of the judges of the third judicial district under the new constitution. Mr. Haly was appointed and filled the unexpired term. Mr. Haly was succeeded by Edward Sheffield, and he in turn by Justin H. Tyler. Edward Sheffield, with his brother, William, settled in Napoleon about the year 1841, both being members of the bar. Ebenezer Lathrop, during the years 1841 and 1842, was a practicing attorney resident in the county. These persons constituted the resident attorneys under the old constitution. Much, however, of the little legal business then in the county was conducted by the Circuit Riders.—There was a class of lawyers, eminent at least locally, who rode from county to county, mostly on horse-back, through the entire circuit along with the president judge. Among the most prominent of these practitioners may be mentioned all of those who had been president judges. Andrew (better known as Count), Coffinberry, John C. Spink. The Constitution of 1851—The judicial system of the State of Ohio was considerably changed by the constitution of 1851, and is defined by the IV. Art. of that instrument. The courts were then made to consist of a Supreme Court, District Courts, Courts of Common Pleas, Courts of Probate, Justices of the Peace and such other courts, inferior to the Supreme Court, in one or more counties, as the General Assembly might from time to time establish. The Supreme Court is composed of five judges, a majority of whom constitute a quorum, and has an original jurisdiction in quo warranto, mandamus, habeas corpus and procedendo, with such appellate jurisdiction as may be provided by law. The District Courts were composed of the judges of the Courts of Common Pleas of the respective districts and one of the judges of the Supreme Court, any three of whom constituted a quorum, and it was seldom, after the lapse of a few years that a supreme judge was present, as it was held [15 O. S., 587] that the presence of a supreme judge was not necessary to give validity to the court. This court was required to be held at least once a year in each county, and had like original jurisdiction with the Supreme Court and such appellate jurisdiction as was conferred by law. The jurisdiction of the Courts of Common Pleas, and of the judges thereof, is also to be fixed by law. A Probate Court, which is made a Court of Record, is established in each county, and given " jurisdiction in probate and testamentary matters, the appointment of administrators and guardians, the settlement of the accounts of executors, administrators and guardians, and such jurisdiction in habeas corpus, the issuing of marriage licenses, and for the sale of land by executors, administrators and guardians, and such other jurisdiction, in any county or counties" as may be provided by law. 148 - HISTORY OF HENRY AND FULTON COUNTIES. All judges are elected by the electors, the supreme judge in the State at large ; common pleas judges in the several sub-divisions of the districts, and probate judges in the county. The term of offices of the probate judges is three years, of all other judges five years. The first election was in October, 1851, and the term of office commenced on the first Monday of February, 1852, Justices of the peace were, as under the old constitution, elected in the several townships. The State was divided into nine common pleas districts, with power in the Legislature to sub-divide the district. Henry county was placed in the third district, and by act of the Legislature, February i8, 1852, in the second subdivision thereof. [3 Curwen, 1710]. John M. Palmer was the first judge of this sub-division, being elected in October, 1851, and assuming office in the following February. His first term of court in Henry county was commenced on the 24th day of May, 1852. In October, 1856, Alexander Sankey Latty, then of Paulding county, was elected judge of the sub-division. He was four times elected and served for twenty years, retiring in February, 1877. During most of his first term his sub-division consisted of the eight counties already mentioned, and necessitated twenty-four terms of the Common Pleas, with the district courts in addition. May I, 1862 [1 Sayler, 328], the rapidly increasing business induced the Legislature to so remodel the districts and sub-divisions as to make the third subdivision of the third district consist of the counties of Paulding, Defiance, Williams, Fulton, Henry and Wood. It so remained until February 21, 1868 [2 Sayler, 1453], when Wood was transferred to the fourth sub-division. In 1876, Selwyn N. Owen, of Williams county, was elected judge, and held the courts of Henry county until June 7, 1875 [R. S., Sec. 800], when this district was so changed as to make Paulding, Defiance and Williams constitute the second sub-division, to which Judge Owen was then assigned ; Fulton, Henry and Putnam composed the third sub-division. John J. Moore, of Putnam county, who had been elected in the second sub-division, of which Putnam was then a part, became the judge for Henry county. Judge Moore was re-elected in 1883, but resigned in February, 1885, to take his place on the circuit bench, to which he had been elected the fall before. After the resignation of Judge Moore, William H. Handy, of Fulton county, was appointed by Governor Hoadly. He was elected the fall following, and is now the judge of the sub-division, which still consists of the three last named counties. Circuit Court.—On the 30th of March, 1883 [0. L. vol. 80, 383], the Legislature submitted to the electors of the State an amendment to the constitution. This amendment was ratified at the October election of that year and became, and now is, a part of our fundamental law. By this amendment the judical system was so changed as to abohsh the District Court and substitute HENRY COUNTY - 149 the Circuit Court. The material change consists in the latter court being composed of three independent judges elected in the circuit, instead cf the intermediate court between the Common Pleas and the Supreme being held by the judges who held the Common Pleas. The State was divided into seven circuits and Henry county placed in the third, of which Thomas Beer, of Crawford county, John J. Moore, of Putnam county, and Henry W. Seney, of Hardin county, are the judges, The Probate Court.—Harvey Allen was the first probate judge for the county, He was elected in 1851 and took charge of the office in February, 1852. He served two terms and died shortly after his term of office expired. He was succeeded by Thomas S. C. Morrison, elected in 1857, re-elected in 1860, again in 1863. Mr. Morrison was editor of the Northwest, had been admitted to the bar but never practiced law. He died in March, 1864. when William M. Beckman was by the governor appointed to the vacancy. In the following fall John M. Haag was elected, and re-elected in 1866. He was succeeded by James G. Haly in 1869. Mr. Haly served for four terms, and was in 1881 followed by David Meekison, who is at present on his second term, which will expire in February, 1888. Prosecuting Attorneys.—We have already given the names of the prosecuting attorneys under the old constitution and will, in like manner in succession, give those who have served since : Edward Sheffield, William A. Choate, James A. Parker, fames L. Robertson, David Meekison, Martin Knupp, Richard W. Cahill. Attorneys.—Among the attorneys who have been members of the Henry county bar since 1851. and not now in practice, here may be mentioned William H. Moe, John M. McFadden, Benjamin E. Sheldon, Joseph R. Swigart, Johnson N. High, Wm. H. Hubbard, F. M. Rummell, A. L. Lessick, and C. E. Selfridge, removed ; Sanford R. McBane, Hiram H. Poe, James L. Robertson, James A. Parker, William and Edward Sheffield, A. R. Scheble, and Romaine Tyler, deceased ; Andrew Crawford, who was a captain in the 14th 0. V. I., three months service, was shot by mistake by one of his own men in \Vest Virginia; William A. Choate, the colonel of the 38th 0. V. I., was killed at the battle of Jonesboro. James G. Haly and Asa H. Tyler, who still reside here, have retired from practice. THE PRESENT BAR. There has been no time during the existence of the Bar in Henry county that the same can be said to have been strong in point of members, but in point of intellectual strength and ability and legal attainments on the part of its practitioners there never has been a bar in the county equal to the present, and it is these practitioners that this branch of the present chapter is intended to be devoted. |
