Excerpt from Report of the Meetings for Organization of the Minnesota State Bar Association: Held at St. Paul, April 3d and June 18th, 1883 At the opening of the general term of the supreme court, April 3, 1883, notice was given that a meeting of members of the bar of the state would be held on the afternoon of that day, in the supreme court rooms, for the purpose of considering the formation of a state board association. Pursuant to such notice a number of lawyers from different parts of the state assembled, and organized by electing W. C. Williston, of Red Wing, chairman, and E. Southworth, of Shakopee, secretary. The matter was discussed at some length, after which, on motion of J. N.
