JUDGE PEURIFOY.
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.
