cautioned, however, about colds, and
Sunday morning he felt a Blight Indis
position of that kind. His daughter.
Miss Ellen Williams, summoned Dr. A.
E. Mackay, and the latter called but
deemed it unnecessary even to pre
scribe tor his patient. There was no
abnormal temperature and every vital
organ seemed to be performing its
funei'ons properly.
Ills Last Day Is Quiet.
Judge Williams spent a quiet day. The
Usual attendance at Trinity Church was
foregone and in the afternoon his old
friend. Colonel John McCraken, called.
The two chattted with animation and
after Colonel McCraken had left Judge
Williams spent the evening talking with
his daughter and in reading. Ho was
in excellent ppirits when he retired at
9:39.
Yesterday morning, at the breakfast
hour. Miss Ellen Williams went to her
father's room to summon him. and found
him. as she supposed, still asleep. When
calls brought no respond and Investiga
tion showed no signs of respiration Dr.
Mackay wa hastily summoned. Judge
Williams' body was still warm when Dr.
Mackay reached his side, but life was
wholly extinct. As near as can be esti
mated th3 end came about 7:30 A. M.
The only evidence given that Judge
Williams had stirred in the night was
the condition of a glass containing
lemon and sugar prepared by his daugh
ter for him In case he should be troubled
by a cough. Part of this simple remedy
had been taken.
Wonderful Man Is Gone.
Looking back over recent years, the
business associates and intimate friends
of Oregon's great statesman were -more
than ever prone to marvel yesterday at
the manner of man who passed away
so peacefully in the early dawn.
To live to the age of 87, to spend more
than 65 years continuously "In the har
ness," to have an unusually full comple
ment of honors, to be associated to the
last with best beloved friends, to be a
figure of pride In the community and an
Inspiration for youth, to preserve- the
precious prize of keen mentality to the
closing hours of life ambitions that may
come to all but be enjoyed by the sxant
est few all these were the lot of Judge
George H. Williams.
, High Honors Were His.
Member of the United States Senate,
Attorney-General of the United States,
Chief Justice of Oregon's Supreme Court,
member of the Alabama Claims Commis
sion, Mayor of Portland these and other
honorable posts were held y Judge Wil
liams In the course of his long life.
In most recent years, however, his
tlays were spent agreeably In the prac
tice of his profession that of the law
In Portland. Prior to the operation
mentioned. Judge Williams was in his of
fice early and late daily. After his
recovery he spent nearly every after
noon at work, generally going to his of
fice about noon or 1 o'clock and remain
Ing untn well toward evening.
In these later years. Judge Williams'
work was almost wholly in matters of
consultation with clients and associates,
and In the preparation of briefs and
other legal documents. Every afternoon
last week, with the exception of Satur
day, when ho attended the matinee 'at
the Bungalow, Judge Williams was at
his office.
Brief Kcmalns Unfinished.
Today there remains on his desk the
unfinished pages of a brief written in
his own hund Just as ho left It last Fri
day. ,
In other lines of endeavor. Judse Wil
liams' activities continued unabated dur
ing his last days. Monday evening of
last week he attended the annual meet
ing of Trinity Parish and was elected
ui one of the vestrymen. Thursday ho
. attended the regular . parish meeting and
discussed the affairs of the church and
laughed and talked In unusual spirits with,
ills fellow-workers, lst evening there
was to have, been another meeting of the
vestrymen, which Judge Williams had
expected to attend.
Death Had Xo Terror. '
Those who have been most Intimate
"with Judge Williams sav that he
looked forward to the inevitable end
calmly and without fear of the future.
An earnest believer In the immortality
of the soul, he sooke of death as one
would of a simple journey that must
be undertaken, and while realizing that
for one of his years death could be
but a short time away, it is told of
him that approaching dissolution did
not seem to linger long in his thoughts.
Another unfailing subject of com
ment yesterday was the remarkable
mental vitality that remained with
the distinguished jurist to the last.
Unlike many old persons, his thoughts
were not largely retrospective to the
more vigorous days of youth.
He Lived In Present.
Judge Williams did not live In the
past, but In the present. Friends now
comment on the difficulty they had in
leading him Into reminiscences of his
experiences in the Senate during the
Civil War crisis or of his activities
as Attorney-General during the nerve
racking period of the Reconstruction.
Judge Williams preferred to talk of
present-day Issues and of sports, in
which he was strongly interested, and
of the city and country's future.
With consciousness of duties well
performed In the past and with an
interest keen for new problems, he
took tip each day's task as it came
and finally laid down his work se
renely, and. It is believed, -with full
, readiness for the long journey.
The last public appearance of the
. Grand Old Man of Oregon was at the
, Bungalow Theater Saturday afternoon.
I where Robert Mantell presented
I i f , If S j f" J ' ff A. etafS -
Romeo. Always an ardent lover of
Shakespere, the attraction won his spe
cial interest and he made one of his
rare visits to the theater. He re
turned home showing- no fatigue and
fio pleaded with the performance that
he planned to go to subsequent mati
nees. Two Banquets Attended Recently
Last month Judge Williams attended
two banquets, at both of which he was
a guest of honor. On March 17 the
Multnomah Bar Association tendered
a banquet to Judge Williams and the
members of the Supreme Court. At
this banquet the aged jurist responded
to the toast "The Nestor of the Ore
gon Bar."
On March 26, in honor of his 87 th
birthday, a banquet was given at the
Portland Hotel under the auspices of
the Young Men's Republican Club.
Here, as at the previous banquet. Judge
Williams spoke. Here he delivered his
last address In public. It was in this
address that Judge Williams spoke so
eloquently of his declining days. There
he expressed the calm content with
which he looked forward to the final
day so much nearer than those who
listened thought. He said:
His Views of Death Kxpressed.
When I was 4 years of at?e I commenced
to follow the etar of empire on its west
ward way, and I have continued to follow
It over rivers and mountains and across the
continent till I found myself on. the shores
of the Pacific Ocean, where that star of
empire has stopped to stay- and shine with
new and ever-increasing: brilliancy.
I have had all sorts of experience In the
course of my life. I have worked for wages
and consorted with other hired men of my
employer, and I have sat with the digni
taries of the Nation at the table of the
President in the .White House at Washing
ton. I have had financial reverses, domes
tic afflictions and hot political fights in
which hard blows were given and received,
hut time has touched me gently, with heal
ing in Its wings. I have no bleeding wounds
In my bosom, no sore places in my memory,
no antipathies or resentments to cherish. All
in peace with me. I can truly say with
Victor Hugo that while the frosts of "Win
ter are on my head the flowers of Spring
are in my "heart.
Old age is not necessarily an unhappy
period of life. Much, of course, depends upon
circumstances. Ill health and infirmities
may come, but old ape will come with good
cheer to the man who can review his past
life with pride and satisfaction and say to
himself: "I have fought a good fight. I
have finished my course. I have kept the
faith, and when the summons for my de
parture comes I am prepared to go, not like
the quarry slave scourged to his dungeon.
but like one who wraps the drapery of his
couch about him and lies down to pleasant
dreams.' The going out of such a life is
like the going down of the sun into mellow
haze of an autumnal evening.
"Old Age" Canse oC Dentil.
Dr. A- E. Mackay yesterday could
give no definite statement as to the
cause of Judge Williams' death.
"The term 'old age probablv ex
presses it better than anything else,"
said Dr. Mackay. It is probable that
an artery in the brain burst, causing
Instant death. His heart had previous
ly given no Indication of weakness. I
saw him Sunday, when I was called on
account of a slight cold from which he
was suffering. The cold had nothing
whatever to do with his death. I took
his temperature at the time and found
it normal: in fact, he seemed to be in
as good health and as cheerful as usual.
"The manner of his death wan ideal.
He simply went to sleep and did not
awaken. There was no pain nor dis
tress, and when I saw him this morn
ing he was lying in bed as In peaceful
sleep.
"I had not called on Judge Williams
professionally since last November, al-
though I occasionally dropped in for a
social visit. At the time of the opera
tion, seven months ago, - I learned to
esteem his qualities of mind and char
acter as never before. He went to the
operation without the slightest appar
ent fear of the result. He did not even
ask if the result might prove fatal.
F" u ne ra I to Be Hel d Wed nesda y .
"During recovery, the ' effects of
such an operation are painful, but in
that period Judge Williams never
voiced a complaint, that I heard. To
be sure, his usual smile was gone and
he did not joke, as he was accus
tomed to, but he bore the conditions
like a Roman."
Yesterday there were many calls by
friends at the residence at Eighteenth
and Couch streets, and numerous hand
some floral tributes were sent.
Mrs, Carl Harbaugh, daughter of
Judge Williams, who resides In Seattle
and whom he had been planning to
visit soon, left yesterday for Portland,
accompanied by her husband. Theodore
Williams, who is attending the Uni
versity of Oregon, arrived last night.
The funeral services are to be held
at Trinity Church. Nineteenth and
Everett streets, Wednesday afternoon
at 2 o'clock. Bishop Scadding and Dr.
A. A. Morrison will officiate.
The estate left by Judge Williams, it
is understood, is not large, although
he had an income in addition to that
derived from his law practice. His
real property holdings included the
family residence and a business block
in Vancouver.
IlKILLIAXCY MARKED CAiUEUR
As Attorney-General During Recon
struction Hard Tasks Were His,
As Attorney-General of the United
States, Oeorge H. Williams had much
to do with the restoration of law and
order in the South, following the close
of the Civil War.
In 1871 Judge Williams ability as a
diplomat was recognized by appoint
ment on the Alabama Claims Commis
sion. In the same year President
Grant called the Oregon Jurist to the
post of Attorney-General and had it
not been for the intense bitterness en
gendered in the performance of official
duties in the "Reconstruction" of the
South, Judge Williams would have died
a Justice of the United States Supreme
Court.
The tender of the position came to
him from President Grant and Judge
Williams" name was sent to the Senate
for confirmation. Strong enmities had
been created by him as Attorney-Genera,
and a prospect was apparent of
an attempt to defeat confirmation.
"Rather than place the President In an
unpleasant position. Judge Williams
withdrew his name.
Much of Judge Williams' energies,
when Attorney-General, were devoted
to quelling disturbances in the South
caused by the attempts of "carpet
baggers" to control the negro vote and
prey upon an already stricken country
and by the resentment of the South
erners which found form in the raids
of the Ku KIui Klan. Once led by
some of the most intelligent and fore
most men of . the South, the Ku Klux
Klan during Judge Williams term of
office had degenerated largely into an
organization of unprincipled raiders.
The situation presented grave difficul
ties and required an iron hand to sub
due. President Grant placed the en
forcement of the "Reconstruction" act
almost wholly in the hands of Judge
Williams and the Latter, with the
United States troops at his disposal,
brought order out of chaos regardless
of the making of enemies in either fac
tion. ruring bis term of office he was
'called upon to decide which of two
state governments attempted to be
formed in Louisiana was entitled to
control. Also In Alabama he quelled
the disorder caused by an attempt of
rival factions to organize two legis
latures. Again in Arkansas a decision
had to be made between two men, both
claiming to have been elected Gover
nor. During four years Judge Williams
held what was one of the most trying
posts ever filled in this country and
made for nimself a lasting place in
history as one of the Nation's foremost
men.
1BTH AMENDMENT WILLIAMS
Oregon Jnrist Last of "War Senate,"
and Close Friend of Lincoln.
"The right of citizens of the United
States to vote shall not be denied or
abridged by the United States, or by
any state, on account of race, color or
previous condition of servitude."
The foregoing is the Fifteenth
Amendment to - the Constitution of the
United States, adopted by Congress in
1S70 and later ratified by the states.
The text of the amendment was pre
pared by the Oregon statesman, George
H. Williams, and was presented and
adopted with only a minor change in
wording.
Judge WIlams was one of the last, !
if not the last, member of the "War
Senate," and had been a warm personal
friend of Lincoln and also of Grant.
Sent to the Senate from Oregon In
1864, he soon became a power in the
Administration forces. He was the
originator of the "reconstruction act,
which he later, as Attorney-General In
Grant's Cabinet, enforced. He was per
sonally acquainted with 13 Presidents
of the United States and knew inti
mately General Robert E. Lee of the
Confederacy.
Judge Williams was also the last
survivor of the 13 who listened to what
is now known as "Lincoln's forgotten
Speech' delivered in Chicago. This !
address was never recorded, but Judge
Williams was able to recall Its salient.;

HIS ABE NOT FELT
Judge Williams Told How His
Years Rested Lightly.
GAVE BRIEF LIFE SKETCH
On 85th Birthday, Young Old Man
Described His Early Life, Telling
How HeW'on First Case and
How He Entered Politics.
In the harness 65 years! Few men
in any country can boast of such a rec
ord, yet it was held In Oregon by George
H. Williams.
Until a serious Illness about seven
monts ago. "Oregon's- Grand Old Man"
was in his law office early and late each
working day. When the weather was
fair ne usually walked the 15 blocks
that lay between his residence and his
office, and his sprightly step caused many
to pause' and wonder.
They passed a man who was a friend
and adviser of Abraham Lincoln, a Fre
mont Presidential elector, a confidant of
Stephen A. Douglas, a leader in the Re
construction, a lawyer in 1S44 and a Dis
trict Judge in Iowa in 1847, yet youthful
in heart, purposeful of mind and ener
getic of limb at 86 years of age.
The story of Judge Williams early
career is best recounted in his own
words as he spoke them three years ago
on the occasion of his 85th birthday.
"Age Is a comparative' term," he said,
"and to all intents I am no older now
than I was 40 or 50 years ago. I am able
to do my work, to enjoy life, to look the
world In the face and to sleep of nights.
That's about all young fellows can do,
isn't it?
Early Days Recalled.
"I remember how importantly old I
felt on my 21st birthday. That was
March 26, 1844, and I lived in Pompey,
N. T. I had been studying law in the
office of Daniel Gott, who was after
wards a member of Congress. Very
soon after I reached my majority I was
admitted to the bar and that Summer
I decided to go West. I went by the
Erie Canal to Buffalo, down the Ohio
Canal to Pittsburg, and thence down the
Ohio River and up the Mississippi to
Fort Madison la. There were no rail
roads west of Indiana then and in fact
only a few-miles in the entire country.
The trip occupied nearly a month. On
the Journey I was robbed of what money
I had and arrived in Fort Madison with
a small law library and a few personal
belongings, but no money.
"I hunted up an old Dutch Justice of
the Peace and got permission to put my
books In his office and secured board and
lodging at Mrs. Knapp's boarding-house,
not knowing how I was going to pay
her for - my keep. A few days later a
farmer who had been sued came Into
Solomon's office and asked where he
could find a lawyer to take his case. The
Justice told him a young fellow by the
name of Williams had just come to town
from New York who pretended to be a
lawyer and that I might help him out. I
took the case and won it against Daniel
F. Miller, at that time one of the 'prom
inent lawyers of Iowa territory. After
hearing me sum up my case Miller came
to me and offered me a partnership which
I was only too glad to accept. From that
time my worst struggles were over. Miller
afterwards went to Congress and figured
largely in the slavery debate at the com
mencement of the Civil War.
How He Met Lincoln Told.
"I at once took an active part in poll
tics, being at that time a Democrat, and
when the territory of Iowa was admitted
in 1847 1 became one of the first District
Judges.
"It was in that year that I first met
Abraham Lincoln, while we were both
delegates to an internal improvement
convention held in Chicago. The friend
ship there formed continued until he was
assassinated. It was In .those days that
I became quite intimate with Stephen A.
Iouglas. whom I greatly admired, and,
as a Northern Democrat, supported for
President in I860, although I was an anti
slavery and a Union man and became a
Republican upon the breaking out of the
war.
"In 1S52 I was a Democratic Presiden
tial Elector, and canvassed the state for
Franklin Pierce. Shortly after General
Pierce was elected he appointed me Chief
Justice of Oregon Territory, at the solici
tation of Senator Douglas, and I came to
Oregon via the Isthmus in June, 1853.
"Portland had only between 500 and
1000 people then; although it was the
leading town of the territory. My head
quarters were at Salem, but when my
term expired In 1857 I came here to locate
for the practice of my profession. My
office was in a two-story frame building
on the river bank between Washington
and Alder streets, which I owned.
Mitchell & Dolph afterwards had offices
in the same building, which burned while
I was In the Senate."
Judge Williams took great pleasure in
recounting incidents of his early career,
but felt diffident about speaking of his
services to the country In later life, and
ended his narrative at that time at the
beginning of his most important achieve
ments. EEDERA.L COURT IS ADJOURNED
Judge Wolverton Orders Immediate
Mark of Respect.
Because of the death of Judge
Williams and out of respect to his
memory Judge Wolverton yesterday
ordered an adjournment of the United
States Court for 24 hours. The atten
tion of the court was called to the
passing of the aged jurist by Assistant
United States Attorney Evans, who
said:
"I feel It my duty to call the atten
tion of the court to the death of a dis
tinguished citizen of Oregon and mem
ber of the bar of this state. Judge
George H. Williams died this morning.
"I deem It a great privilege to con
tribute my humble praise to the char
acter of Judge Williams. During a
brief acquaintance with him there was
never an opportunity afforded me to
listen to the words of wisdom which
he Invariably pronounced but that I
availed myself of it, and now that he
has gone from us, I prize those few
occasions most highly.
'His life and character will leave Its
Impress upon this community for many
generations to come. The sturdy ex
ample of industry, fidelity and integ
rity set by him will stand out through
future years as a beacon light to guide
the ambitions and to direct the conduct
of younger attorneys. Indeed, it is a
rare privilege to have known a man,
even though the acquaintance was
slight, who sat in the councils of
Abraham Lincoln and Ulyswes S. Grant.
Judge Wolverton in ordering that the
court stand adjourned to 10 o'clock to
day, said:
"Ever since my first acquaintance
with Judge Williams, I have always
held him in very high personal regard.
He was among the strong statesmen
of the reconstruction times. and
through his work in the Senate, he has
left his Impress upon the measures
written then, both in the Constitution
and in legislative acts. History will
yet write his name and influence more
prominently in connection with, these
measures."
MAYOR
ORDERS
RESPECT
All Flags on City Bnilding at Half
Mast, City Hall to Be Closed.
Feeling very keenly the loss of- his old
friend. Judge Williams. Mayor Simon
yesterday morning instructed that all
city buildings, including the City Hall,
fire department stations, police headquar
ters, and other public places, place their
flags at half-mast.
Mayor Simon also ordered the City Hall
closed during the funeral services tomor
row afternoon, as a special mark of the
estOm in which the late Judge Williams
is held in the big building, where he for
merly occupied the Mayoralty chair.
"I want to show every possible mark
of esteem for Judge Will lams," said
Mayor Simon. "He was Indeed a good
man, an able jurist and fit example for
any young man to follow. His life was
one of the greatest usefulness, and his
death Is a great loss to Portland, Oregon
and to the Nation, all of which he served
faithfully in his time. I recall with much
pleasure the brilliant banquet, held in
honor of his 87th birthday two weeks
ago. I am glad I was able to be present.
The speech he delivered on that occa
sion was a gem, and worthy of the seri
ous consideration of all young people,"
Commercial Club Will Miss Judge.
Judge Williams was an enthusiastic
member of the Commercial Club and always-
displayed a keen interest in the
o o
workings of that organization. He spent
much of his time at the club with his
friends, among them being Colonel John
McCraken, with whom he played bil
liards almost daily until his illness last
Fall. Colonel McCraken visited him
Sunday afternoon. The club probably
will officially take some part in the fu
neral services Wednesday, according to
President Beckwith. The matter will
be called to the attention of the Board
of Governors at a meeting today at noon.
STATE SHOWS ITS RESPECT
Governor Benson Talks of Williams
Worth to Commonwealth.
SALEM, Or., April 4. "Since my boy
hood days I have known and admired
Judge Williams, said Governor Ben
son this morning. "His career in Ore
gon has been of utmost value to the
state; the mark he leaves is an his
torical one. His lovableness as a man
makes his going a personal shock to all
of us. It is hard to become reconciled
to the end of a career so brilliant, even
viewing his unusual age."
The flag on the State Capitol building
was run up to half mast as soon as the
news of Judge Williams death reached
Salem. Governor Benson expects to at
tend the funeral.
As all Chief Justice Moore's asso
ciates are not in the city today, he was
unable to state whether or not the
Supreme Court would adjourn in con
sequence of the death of Judge Will
iams. However, the court does not meet
until tomorrow, and it is the Chief Jus
tices's opinion that some definite ar
rangement will be made at that time.
Chief Justice Moore said:
"No man In any community ever en
joyed in his last days the love, con
fidence and affection of all the people
like our friend and former associate
Judge Williams. He proved himself a
leader among men and he occupied the
same position among us as did Justice
Marshall in the United States Supreme
Court."
