Ava meeting of the Bar of Colombia, beU ftt^he* Court House, on Saturday, May 8/1873, at 12 M., the following pro* cecdfoga^erahad: *' On motion. Hod. J. P. Carroll was called to the Chair, and Charles F. Jan ney, Esq., requested to act as Secretary. ?4 The ObairmaD, after calling the meet? ing to order, announced the object to be to pay a proper tribute to the memory of two members of the Bar, lately de? ceased?tbo one Wiir?AM H. Talley, Esq , late Solicitor of this Circuit, aud the other John Waties, formerly Clerk of the Court of Appeals. Ho alluded with great feeling to the high character and noble qualities of the deceased law? yers, and spoke most regretfully of their early death?the elder of the two being but forty-five?as having deprived their profession of two worthy ornaments. Nathaniel Born well, Esq., then an? nounced that, before discharging the mournful duty that had been devolved upon him of offering appropriate resolu tiona with reference to the death of his late partner, William H. Talley, he felt impelled by inclination, no less than by duty, to notice briefly the striking cha? racteristics of one whose acquaintance with the speaker, though short, had so deeply impressed him. Mr. Talley'? most marked mental, and I might add moral, quality was thorough? ness. In him we had a man who let no difficulty, no labor, nor. personal priva? tion daunt him. Whether it required laborious thought, exhaustive study, or indefatigablo personal application, our dead friend never thought of self, bnt always of that end over in his mind, the complete performance of the task be? fore him. A wiso thinker has said of genius, that it was the power of con? tinued application to one eubjeot of thought, and in Mr. Talley there may be said to.have been eminently developed the genius for labor. Born with a Wind bright and appreciative, blessed with an edooation well calculated to improve it, it is not surprising that before ho had at? tained his thirtieth year, his name was known on .all hands as a name full of promise for future usefulness aud honor. Death, Mr. Chairman, is the only true adjuster of the affairs of life. It is the proper tima to look-at a man's deeds, and comparing them one with another, td ascertain'how far we are able out of them all to construct an enduring me merial to his life; bnt in no case, at that asd moment, can we hope to do more than to show that the life, even though seemingly fragmentary, is really whole, and that through it all, runs that true fixed character thai we call principle. Something, that, like the substance of matter or the essenoe of spirit, is so in? timately interwoven with life, thatitoan not be separated from it. [ In Mr. Talley, this great thing called principle had a lixcd and abiding mean? ing. It was this: That, knowing his i duty, he did it; and doing it, he did it thoroughly. How appropriate, then, fa I this our mourning; for when our com? panion was taken away from us, we lost a man?a noble, generous, independent, fearless man. Regretting that, I am not fitted, for wapt of a more 'extended acquaintance with the early life of my late honored se? nior, to speak of his rapid adv?n?emeqt in his profession, and of bis success Iberein, I yet claim sufficient knowledge of him to bear my feeble testimony to bis pure character and noble qualities. Mr. Chairman. I oder the following reso? lutions: Whereas death, evor ready to aeiza upon enr strongest and most valued comrades, has stretched rorth hie all-powerful arm aud stricken down, in our midet, our distinguish? ed brother of tho Bar, the hue William Behrj Talley: Resolved, That wo, members of the Colum? bia bar, do moat e*dly realize that in .tho death or William U.Talley, we have to mourn the lose of one who, by his unwearied appli? cation, his deep study, his thoughtful re? search, had rju ili??d himself for a permanent pl&oo in the front ranks of tho Bar of Smith Carolina; one who, by bis devoted and self sacrificing patriotism in the cause of his oountry, has entitled himself to a high posi? tion iu tbc< esteem of those who moorn that oouutry'a wrongs; one who, by bis ondaontod conduct when tho clouds of adversity woro gathering around bim, and by hi? faithful performance of his private duties, cvincod that manly fortitudo and simple devotion to doty which are the crowning virtuce of a truly Christian character. Resolved, That by his death, the Bar or Co? lumbia has been deprived of one of its brightest Ornamente; bis feliow-citizeu? of a laborious end pubh'c-ipirited co-worker, aud his State of a useful, bravo aud devoted son. Jlesolcei, That we can with rride remember, in tha midst of our griof over the loss wo hnvo sustained, the manly, opou aud honorable course of profestional dealing that so emi? nently marked the condaci of our dccc&sod brother, whoso whole career g:wo evidence of a heart as woll a- a hand mat could hover stoop to au unworthy deed. Resolved, That we do hoi eh y tender our condolence :md sympathy to his bereaved wifo and family In this their hour of deep dis? tress over their losj uf ouo who, though well kuown to na to posses* iho stronger aud maniior qualities that litte J him to hhine among men, yjt had uu even larger share ol those kindly, affectionate and dimple habits of mind that enabled him faithfully to till the place of husband, father aud bun. Resolved, That these proceedings he pre? sented by th'j Chairman of this meeting to the Court of Common Pleas tor ltiehland County, at its next term, with the request that they bo entered on the journals ol the Court. Resolved, That the Secretary of tbU meet? ing do transmit a copy of these proceedings to the family of the deceased, aud that thov bo published iu two daily papers of tho city. Mr. Popo, on seconding the resolutions, said: Mu.Cn.vir.3f.vN: The absence of another Is to bo regretted, to whom (so much more ap? propriately than to myself) had been assigned tho sad. mournful but?may i aayV?pleasinc duty of seconding tho roao'.utious just of? fered; in his ?toad, I accept tho sad office hut, on tho instant, i cannot hope to do just? ice to the memory of such a man aa the late William Henry Talley. It is to bo remarked of both of ourdoeoiaed friends, who have now gono beyond that bourno from whence no traveler returns, that whilo they diod not upon tho field of battle, yet they literally yielded up their lives to thu cauae of their conutry. To the carllest call or duty, Mr. Talley promptly responded in person. Whether trom tho effects of climate, exposure or other cause, it was during the late war (it will be remembered) that he wa< ?r^t strick?u down at his appciuted plait. From this ha nevrf, wholly recovered. Tho lifo of oar trlend wsb sot eventral, bat U pre? sents Itself to as la ? its pablie; jrqTenlonfcl and prirktfl ,relations.. I first' knew Mx. Tal - I ley, now nearly twenty years ago, as a mem ! ber of tho Legislature. Ee was then In his youthful prime. His career was marked by intelligent, active bnsinoss- qualities; and be did not at all attempt, as too many do, to shine upon the door. Ho was respected by all, honored by all. In his professional ca? reer, ail of ub remember him. Mr. Talley was not a genius; few can be so classed; but he was undoubtedly an-able man?a well-in? formed, industrious, earnest lawyer. - His in? tellect w&s not rounded off into a symmetrical whole. On the contrary, it was rather rugged, sirens, bold; and if.sometimes he entertained an eccentric opinion, ho was.ho? nest and ardent in bis convictions. As Soli? citor of this Ciron.it, althonirh from the first he was somewhat enfeebled by the slow, in sidioue encroachments of disease, we can. all attest bis able, earnest and faithful discharge of duty. It may bo said of him, that be tell at his post. LSut whatever might have been Mr. Tailor's usefulness as a publio servant, it w&b, after all, as a man, in tho domestic and social relations, that he shone most brightly, that his lifo and character were the most charming. Within the preoiaots of home and family, we may not rndely or too freely enter. As a dutiful son to his aged parents, as a de? voted hmbsnd to a no less devoted wife, we may hero be permitted to refer-to him. As father and friend, ho wss exemplary, warm? hearted and sincere. And long will the re snoct of this community and the affections of tnoso who were nearest to him and knew him best, cluster with fragrant memories around the name of William Henry Talley. j Mr. Chairman, I second ih&resolatione. Tho resolutions were thereupon nnsni-. mously adopted. Col. F. W. McMaster offered the following j preamble and resolutions: The providence of an All-Wise.God, which has removed from our midst Major Jphn Waties, who, for seventeen years, was a mem? ber of the Columbia Bar, demands from bis brethren an humble submission to the Divine decree, and a tribute to tho memory of cue so much honored by us and respected by the wholo community. . ? Major Watics was- a talented and' able lawyer; but eminent as he was in his profes-' sion, ho was even more conspicuous tor his integrity of character and .noble social qnahtieB. The purity cf his life, his inflexi? ble adherence to truth and honor, combined with great suavity of manner, and kind and tendor affections, rendered him an object uf love to many and of admiration to all who knew him. In his death the State has lost ono of her noblest citizens and the Bar of Co? lumbia one of its most esteemed representa? tives. Under a sense, therefore, of the sincere regard and veneration we entertained for hlni while living, and the loss we have sustained by the sad bereavement, which haa separated him from all earthly intercourse with ns?his brothers of the Bar?be it Iietolced, That in the death of John Waties this community has baen bereaved of a noble, high-minded, vixtuauB and patriotic citizen, and the Bar of Columbia of a most honorable, useful and efficient member. Resolved, That these proceedings be pre? sented by the Chairman of this meeting to the Court of Common Pleas for Jticbland County, at its next term, with the request that they be entered on the journals of the Co ort. Resolved, That the Secretary of this meet? ing do transmit a copy of tho proceedings, together with our heartfelt sympathy, to the' family cf the deceased; and that the editors' of the Carolinian and the Faozsix be request? ed to publish these proceedings, Colonel McMaster then said: J fJL\ [? Mc. Cumbmax: It is rarely the case when a Bar is called together on an occasion as'bo lenin as the present, to pay the last tribute of respect to the memory of two of its members, of unch exalted character, soch promise of usefulness, wide circlu of friends, as Wm. H. Talley and John Watios. Tbey were nearly, of the same age, practiced at the same Bar for seventeen years, were each attacked by dis? ease abont the same period of time, and fell victims to the insatiate archer.death, within three weeks of each other?the-eldest Just having attained his forty-fifth year. Wnliolwould fain dwell on the virtues of my friend, W. H. Talley, in these proceedings' of the Bar, it is my duly, my privilege and pleasure, to epeak particularly bo response to the resolutions offered in memory of John Waties. After serving sometime as Clerk-of the Court of Appeals, he was admitted to the. Bar in 1856, and, in partnership with W.;I$. Bachman, did a good business until the war. Since that time he baa been engaged - In a number of important eases, all of whioa he managed with ability and fidelity. During the past yoar he became bo enfeebled by dis? ease that he was compelled to surrender his work. As a lawyer, the words of Judge O'Neale, in reference to his grand-father. Judge Waties, slightly changed, are strictly appropriate: "Ho was a good and sound lawyer; he loved the rigid and sought to do right, independent of technical rales." The last speech he ever made was in the United States Circuit Court, at Columbia, in January, 1372?an occasion well fitted to the man, when ho stood forth to defend tbe dig? nity of bis profession a d the privileges of its members. Well do I lemember the emo? tion I felt, when, two days before this trial, I entered my eftico, and saw, written in large letters, ou a sheet of foolscap: "John Waties is at your service." It was bo like him, so genoruus and brave. An earnest, bold and chivalrous champion of justice, he was always ready, with willing heart, unblanching eye and ready tongue, to epeak even to the tyrant on his throne, and dufy his power. Amidst tbe mass of records of the wholesale and wicked prosecutions which aro transmitted in what is called the great Eu Klus trials, there is no nobler and boidt r speech than Waties uttered on that occasion; and when tbe me? mory of tho persecuting Judge, the packed juries and bribed witnesses will only be re? membered to be cursed, the name of Waties will tako place with that of his illustrious grand-father. His speech, like the eloquent opinion of Julge Waties in tho State I'd. Lehre, reported in 2 Treadway.wili ho regard? ed at tho manly, true aud noble production of a knightly soul. As a patriot and defender of constitutional liberty, our country haa furnished no better cxaniplo. Ho did his full duty. Tbe de? scendant of good revolutionary stock on both sides, it was natural to expect this much from him. At the first call of Oov.Piokons for troops at Charleston, in December, lSoO, he went as Lientenaut in tho Columbia Artil? lery to Fort Moultrio. Soon after tho fall of Snmter, when thero was no opportunity for State ?ervico, he promptly hurried to the Iront, and tuned with Hampton in the first battle of Manassas. Soon .aftorwards, he organized his artillery company, and served gallautly iu tho Army of the West nutil the close of tho war. At the desperato battle of Franklin, he receivod a eovero wound, which undoubtedly contributed to tho development of tbo dUoaso whioh carried him to his grave. But whatever may bo his qualities as a law yer, a soldier and patriot, which entitle hint to the reepoct of his countrymen, 1 love to contemplate him as a man and citizon. Ho was, undoubtedly, ono of the noblest mou it has ever been my good fortune to as? sociate with. Kind, courteous and bravo, he was Instinctively looked to by the communitj as authority ou all questions of propriety and honor. Determined and persistent iu de? fending the right, be would forgive or retract with the frankness and candor with which he would resent an attack. Without malice or hypocrisy, ho was simple and artless as a child. His graceful manners and handsome faco were iudicativo of his puro heart and clear mind. Indeed, to know him well was to love him. Few men are endowed by Provi deuue with so many attractive qualities. Nona kuew bin tmt to love him, noue named him but to praise. Wi,u men, women and chil? dren, Sie wii a great favoiite. A kiud word, ja:*}>]in iivr t. pleasant look and courteous salutation he carried alwav? with him, wbleh seemed to br?*tbe t, halo of cheerfulness around him wherever he .went. During hi* long *mf pain fnIillh8i^hlBto?tIladw,waiinblune. ArrdBat hia eofTeringe, which were constant, never a murmur escaped his lips. Calm, patient and even cheerful .to the Uet, no one could look upon his serene countenance without admira? tion. My picture would be incomplete, did I not mention that to all his good qualities was added the grace of an abiding; and unfaltering trust in a revealed religion. Throughout his life he practised its virtues: and he put the seal to bis faith by connecting himself pub? licly with the church in which he had been reared. i ! "The light whioh led him on Was light from Heaven." Mr. Chairman, J feel my inability to por? tray the character of ?soh ?? man* Indeed, it is a th?mo worthy of the poet.
