There will be genuine regiet ovi the state at the retirement of Judj James E. Peurifoy from the bene Judge Peurifoy has held but 01 term of the court at Abbeville, bi at that term he not only impress< the members of the bar and the- pu lie with his ability as a lawyer, bi likewise with his adaptability to tl duties of a presiding judge and h uniform courtesy' to those wi whom he had dealings. Over tl state Judge Peurifoy had everywhe: been regarded as one of the mo - admirable of recent selections f< the bench. His career constantly a ded to his usefulness. He stood f< the enforcement of the law and f< a strict observance of its requir ments. He lent dignity to the offi< and added to the law's majestiy. It is to be noted that Judge Pei rifoy leaves the bench primarily c account of his impaired health. T1 legislature should take note of tl fact that the duties of the bench ai making too heavy demands on tl resisting powers of the judges. T1 principal cause of this fact is tl px-ovision of the Constitution r quiring the judges to rotate fro: one circuit to another. There a: advantages to be gained by this sy tem to be true. But there are lik wise disadvantages. With the cour divorced as the General Sessioi and Common Pleas courts now ar a circuit judge is away from hon traveling and holding court in son other county tnan ms own practice ly the whole year. Men do not a ' pire to the bench until they are fifi or more years of age. At that a{ " they have not the physical endu ance to withstand the inroads whi< the dtities of the office impose upc their physical systems. No bett< proof could be adduced of that the the fact that the present year v have lost three of the cirfcuit judgi of our courts from deathj men wi had many years yet to live of the a lotted thfe^-seore years and ten. The state can ill Afford to lot the ^services of men like Erne; Moore, Edward Mclver, Frank 1 Cfary and James E. Peurifoy. Adhe ence to a custom which is shortenm the lives of such men and deterrin other good men from taking up tt dutie3 of the bench is no longer virtue. The Constitution should I am?rided, and the Ta\fr ^houTd iWtlW a judge is respdftsible alone for tJ courts fn his* oWri circuit. ProVisio can tie ittade for airi interchange c circuits to be true, but it should n( be a' f tmiimehtal requirement of tl laW thai a j&dge hold c6urt awa from h6the foV" thirtefen-fo'urteeritl of the tahie he is supposed to seW his own ^feople. , ;?y ; ; > A P&&&RVEO TRIBUTE The Greenville (S.
