CHIEF JUSTICE POPE RESIGNS. IV WILL LEAVE STATE SUPREME BENCH ON APRIL 15. Colnmbia January 6.— Special: Chief Justice Pope has resigned on account of his health, the resignation to take effect April 15 next. His suc cessor will be« elected by the Legislature, which assembles next week. The letter ol resignation transmitted to Governor Ansel to-day is perhaps the most elo quent utterance ot Chief Justice Pope’s long useful, and distin-1 guished career. The letter | follows: Columbia, S. C., Januar) 6, 19d>. lo His Excellency. Martin F. Ansel, Governor q! the State of South Carolina: Realizing that my time of active service is drawing to a close, anil conceiving it to be my duty to retire from office, I hereby tender my resignation as Chief Justice of the Su- „ preme Courtof South Carolina, to take efcl^ct April 15, 1909. With love for all the people of our State* w (Signed) Yours truly, Y. J. Pope. As soon as he received tile letter, Governor Ansel called! in person on the Chief Justice) at the Supreme Court consul tation room, and expressed his personal regret that the Chief Justice felt compelled to givei up his duties, and assured him in the name of the people of the State of the appreciation felt for his services to South Carolina. The term which Chief Jus- j tice'Pope is now filling expires ' in January, 1909, the Chief j Justice having been re-elected in 1906 for a tefm of eight j years. The Legislature will nil the unexpired term. TW remaining members of Su preme Court, in the order of seniority, are: Eugene B. Gary, re-elected in 1908; Ira B. Jones, re-elected in 1902; C. A. Woods, re-elected in 1904. /The Legislature may promote one of the Associate Justices to be Chief Justice, as has been frequently done, as for instance, in the case of Judge Pope, or a new man* may be made Chief Justice. Chief Justice Pope has been in wretched health for about i two years, and last year for awhile was absent from the Bench, but during that period he has most of the time stuck faithfully to his post with char acteribtic fidelity to duty. That he has worked under physical ^disadvantages has, however, been very evident, and his de cision to retire is no doubt wise from his personal stand point.
