Book Description

Excerpt from Landmarks of a Lawyer's Lifetime Supreme Court, an associate on the bench with my father, followed by the Strongs Who founded the practice of that distinguished firm - Strong Cad Walader Of New York City, in which for many years there was no Strong, but the name was regarded of sufficient value to be retained. The progeny of these two branches of Strongs ramified far and wide in the field of law, and quite likely a few more judges among them might be unearthed by more or less diligent search, and if the fates had been kinder upon my two nominations for a judgeship by the Republi cans of New York City, I might have added another to the list of Supreme Court Judges. It is a matter of satisfaction in looking over the roll of these worthies of the bench and bar, that in about a century and a half neither the sentence of sus per coll nor of disbarment has been pronounced against any of them.
