Excerpt from Address of Hon. Henry G. Connor Presenting the Portrait of Hon. William T. Dortch to the Supreme Court of North Carolina and Its Acceptance for the Court by Chief Justice Walter Clark After three years spent in Nashville, Mr. Dortch, during the year 1848, removed to the new and rapidly growing town of Goldsboro, lately made the county-seat of Wayne County, It was here that he spent the remaining forty years of his life. By reason of its location in the center of a group of large and, for those days, wealthy coun ties, and later the construction of the North Carolina and the Atlantic and North Carolina Railroads, Goldsboro offered superior opportuni ties for a lawyer engaged in circuit practice, and of these Mr. Dortch at once took advantage. He attended the courts of Wayne, Johnston, Lenoir, Greene, Edgecombe, Nash, and, upon its formation in 1855, of Wilson counties, building up and retaining a large and leading practice. By heredity, environment, and conviction Mr. Dortch accepted, and was always ready to defend, the principles and policies of the Democratic Party. He was elected to the House of Commons from Wayne County at the Session of 1852, and returned to the Session of 1854, serving as chairman of the Judiciary Committee, thus giving evidence that he had made a favorable impression on his colleagues. Among the men who achieved distinction in the service of the State, members of the Legisla ture of 1854 were Samuel P. Hill, Speaker, Governor Vance, Daniel M. Barringer, Sam F. Patterson, Jesse G. Shepherd, James M. Leach, John A. Gilmer, John F. Hoke, Asa Biggs, William A. Graham, Samuel F. Phillips, Walter L. Steele, Thomas Settle, William M. Shipp, William Eaton, William A. Jenkins, Giles Mebane, and Josiah Turner. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
