Addresses Delivered February 17th, 1920, and Historical Sketch Prepared to Commemorate the Semi-Centenary of the Association of the Bar of the City of New York, 1870-1920 (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from Addresses Delivered February 17th, 1920, and Historical Sketch Prepared to Commemorate the Semi-Centenary of the Association of the Bar of the City of New York, 1870-1920
Mr. Davies: Mr. President, Mr. Presiding Justice, and fellow members of the Bar Association: The honor and privilege of representing upon the Fiftieth Anniversary of the formation of this Association, the signers of the call for its organization, are only second to those of having been one of those signers.
Of the two hundred and thirty-one members of the Bar of the City of New York who affixed their signatures, but twelve survive who have been so fortunate as to witness the immediate success of the first efforts of this organiza tion; the recognition of the value of its ideas, evidenced by the creation of numerous Bar Associations in the United States, all followers of us as the pioneer, our power as a corrective and disciplining force upon the standards of conduct in the profession, and finally our celebration to night of the Fiftieth Anniversary of our nativity.
Fifty years ago, the Bar of the City of New York, by acombination between the leaders of Tammany Hall and a few members of the Judiciary, was being reduced to a condition in which the usefulness of its most able and up right members was becoming impaired. They were being forced either into abhorrent relations with the forces of evil, or relinquishment of their activities in the trial of causes.
