Excerpt from Reminiscences of Virginia's Judges and Jurists: Address at a Banquet Tendered to the Members of the New Court of Appeals by the Richmond Bar Association, February 7th, 1895 The Military Court, during the reconstruction era, I never saw, and knew but one of its judges. Let it pass. They had been made to supersede the court of the Pierpont Dynasty, composed of the venera ble President Moncure Judge William T. J oynes and Judge Lucas P. Thompson; but he, dying very soon, his place was supplied by Judge Alexander Rives. Upon the organization of the court under the Constitution of 1870, it was constituted of President Moncure, J oynes, Christian, Staples and Anderson. Judge J oynes died, lamented by the profession as a judge of marked native ability, and of varied and accurate learning, and Judge Wood Bouldin succeeded for a few years of distinguished service until his death, when the yet living Edward C. Burks succeeded him for too short a term of service; another of my old college-mates, and a graduate with Judge Robertson in law under my father in 1842. Of this court all have passed away except Judges Christian and Staples, but the record of their decisions enables us to estimate them as eminently worthy of their honored predecessors. Their praise is voiced by the profession for learning, ability and integrity. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
