"Seldom does it fall to the lot of any man to render distinguished service in so many fields as did Chief Justice Hughes. He was an eminent lawyer, Governor of the State of New York, Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States, nominee of his party for the Presidency, Secretary of State of the United States, and Chief Justice of the United States-a record unique in our Nation's history. His place is high among the outstanding jurists of the world. "At an appropriate time, the Court will receive the Resolutions of the Bar in tribute to his memory.' |
