S imeon Eben Baldwin, Governor of Connecticut, was born at New Haven, February 5, 1840, the youngest son of Roger Sherman Baldwin, Gover nor of Connecticut and United States Senator, who was a son of Simeon Bald win, Representative in Congress and Associate Judge of the Supreme Court of Errors, and a grandson of Roger Sherman, Signer of the Declaration of In dependence, and a leader in the Convention of 1787 which framed the Constitu tion of the United States. On h is mother's side he is a descendant of Governors Haynes, Wyllys, and Pitkin, of Connecticut. He was educated at the Hopkins Grammar School of New Haven, Yale College, the Yale and Havard Law Schools, and was ad mitted to the bar at New Haven in 1863, where he practiced his profession before both the State and United States courts for thirty years. He occasionally appeared also in the argument of important causes in Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and New York, as well as in the Supreme Court of the United States. In 1 869 he was appointed an instructor in the Yale Law School and in 1872 a Professor. At the latter date he withdrew from practice in the inferior courts, and has ever since given one or two days a week through the year to the duties of his professorship. The subjects which he teaches are Constitu tional Law, Railroad Law, and Private International Law. He has also de livered the Southworth lectures in Andover Theological Seminary, a course of lectures in Private International Law in the University of Maryland, and a course of lectures on Wills in Howard University. In 1 872 he was appointed by the General Assembly one of a commission to revise the education laws of Connecticut, and in 1873 one of a similar body for the revision of all the public laws. The general statutes had been arranged in all prior revisions alphabetically by topics. He advocated and carried through an arrangement of the various heads in their natural order, which has ever since been followed. In 1 875 he brought forward in Yale University a plan for giving advanced instruction in the Law Department to those who had already received a degree of bachelor of laws. A course of graduate study was suggested, leading to the degrees of Master of Laws and Doctor of Civil Law. This measure received the approval of the University, and was put into effect in 1876. Graduate courses of a similar nature, patterned after those of Yale University, have since been introduced into a number of the American law schools. In 1 877 he obtained the approval by the State Bar Association of a proposi tion brought forward by him to abolish the distinction between law and equity as applicable to the form of civil actions. This resulted in his appointment on a legislative commission to accomplish this change, and he had a large share in preparing the Practice Act by which it was effected, and the Rules of Court under it. In 1885 he was appointed on a commission to report to the General Assembly on methods of taxation, and was influential in thus securing the adoption of several measures which added largely to the revenues of the State. In 1 878 he was one of a few citizens who initiated the movement which led to the establishment of an extensive system of parks in New Haven, and was elected one of the three life members of the city Park Commission. In t he same year he suggested to the State Bar Association of Connecticut that it should take the initiative in endeavoring to secure the foundation of a SEP4 1 1912 ,'&-&'?-* 9 national b ar association. He was appointed one of a committee raised for that purpose, and conducted the preliminary correspondence, which was necessarily extensive. The result was the organization in 1878, of the American Bar Asso ciation, of which he has been called the founder, and which has had an im portant and growing influence throughout the Union. In 1 893 he was appointed an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of Errors, and in 1907 Chief Justice. He h as been president of the New Haven Colony Historical Society, the American Historical Association, the American Bar Association, the Association of American Law Schools, the International Law Association, and the American Social Science Association, and is now president of the American Political Science Association, the American Society for the Judicial Settlement of In ternational Disputes, the Connecticut Academy of Arts and Sciences, the Trustees of the Hopkins Grammar School, and the Connecticut Society of the Archzeological Institute of America, and Director of the Bureau of Compara tive Law of the American Bar Association. He is a member of the American Antiquarian Society, the American Philosophical Society, and the National Institute of Arts and Letters, a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, and a corresponding member of the Massachusetts Historical Society, the Colonial Society of Massachusetts, and the Institut de Droit Compare of Brussels. He received the honorary degree of LL.D. from Harvard in 1891, and from Columbia in 1911. He h as published a Digest of the Connecticut Law Reports, " Modern Political Institutions," " American Railroad Law," " Illustrative Cases on Rail road Law," and " The American Judiciary." He was also one of the authors of " Two Centuries' Growth of American Law," and has contributed numerous articles to magazines and transactions of societies in the United States, Great Britain, France, Germany, Belgium, and Switzerland. He prepared the defi nitions of terms of jurisprudence given in the " Dictionary of Philosophy," printed at Oxford in 1902, and the article on United States Law in the Encyclopedia Brittanica. In 1 900 he was, under appointment from the Department of State, a dele gate from the United States to the Congrcs International Peniicntiaire at Brus sels, and in 1905 to that at Budapest. In 1904 he was the vice-president for the United States of the Universal Congress of Jurists and Lawyers, at St. Louis, Missouri. He h as been moderator of the State Conference of Congregational Churches of Connecticut, and president of the New Haven Congregational Club, and is a director in the Missionary Society of Connecticut, and a corporate member of the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions. Before g oing on the bench, he had been an active member of the Demo cratic party, and when appointed was president of the State Democratic Club, and of the Monticello Club in New Haven, which then occupied a club house on Temple street. He retired from the bench in 1910, on reaching the age of seventy, under the constitutional provision to that effect, and was elected Governor on the Democratic ticket in the fall of that year. At t he Democratic State Convention, held at Bridgeport, on May 2, 1912, resolutions were unanimously passed instructing the Connecticut delegates to the Democratic National Convention to be held at Baltimore, June 25, 1912, to place in nomination, vote for, and support Governor Baldwin as candidate for President of the United States. DENNIS A . BLAKESLEE, Lieutenant-Governor. Hon. D ennis A. Blakeslee, of New Haven, Lieutenant-Governor, was the Republican Senator from the Ninth District two consecutive sessions, 1907 and 1909. He was horn in New Haven, March 11, 1856, and is the son of Charles W. and Martha J. (Waters) Blakeslee. He was educated in the public schools of New Haven and on December 4, 1878, married Lizzie F. Law, daughter of Wyllis A. and Harriett A. Law. They have had six children: Harriett F., Martha L., Albert D., Harold L., Miles Grant, and Dorothy.

LAISSEZ-FAIRE THEORY IN THE EARLY AMERICAN BAR ASSOCIATION Norbert Brockman, S.M.* The organized bar in the United States has, throughout its history, been shaped by the currents moving the history of the country at large. Thus, when the revolution that was Jacksonian democracy gathered strength in the 1820's, the legal profession felt its effects. The common view of the bar was that of Alexis de Tocqueville, who remarked: "If I were asked where I place the American Aristoc- racy, I should reply without hesitation... that it occupies the judicial bench and bar."' In the rising tide of Jacksonianism, this feeling could only result in a reaction against the organized bar. It was not uncommon for editors to accuse associations of undermining the bar, or even of being "conspiracies against the community at large."2 Traditionally, lawyers had been "called" to the bar, the admitting agent in the United States invariably being the court system.

  • The Imperial Treaty Power
    ARTICLE THE IMPERIAL TREATY POWER BRIAN RICHARDSON† The modern debate over the scope of the federal government’s treaty-making power is largely framed by motivated histories written at the turn of the last century. These histories, by and large, gave a legal imprimatur to the acquisition of the insular possessions and the exercise of colonial government over them. A principal contribution of these constitutional histories was to make it an obvious proposition that the American treaty-making power contained the law-of-nations power to acquire territory and to take an imperial sovereign’s original title to it: “What Spain could do we can do.” This Article contends that these imperial and canonical histories of the treaty- making power erased a vibrant and contrary view of American foreign-affairs federalism. This now-interred theory of American foreign-affairs federalism, which produced victories in several important public law disputes in prior eras, argued that the Tenth Amendment’s reservation of sovereign power to the popular sovereign proscribed both the state and federal governments from exercising an “eminent dominion” over territory. That is to say, this rival view forbade both the state and federal governments from acquiring territory, ceding territory, and holding original title to territory so acquired. Crucially, this idea rejected altogether the familiar lens of “dual-sovereignty” in limiting the foreign-affairs powers of American governments. This Article traces the arc of the erased idea about the American governments’ foreign-affairs powers through bureaucratic archives, state and federal court decisions, and various sources of elite legal opinion. In accounting for the bygone victories of the now-dormant idea, as well as the ultimate defeat of that idea at the hands of imperial bureaucrats, the Article sheds new light on one of the central preoccupations of the † Research Fellow, Columbia Law School; J.D., Yale Law School; Ph.D., University of Cambridge.

  • The Litchfield Law School in Cultural Context
    NOTES "TO LEARN AND MAKE RESPECTABLE HEREAFTER": THE LITCHFIELD LAW SCHOOL IN CULTURAL CONTEXT ANDREW M. SIEGEL* INTRODUCTION' The reopening of Harvard Law School in 1829 is usually consid- ered the beginning of modem American legal education.2 Whether one's goal is to glorify the legal profession or to demonize its mem- bers, the efforts of benefactor Nathan Dane and professor Joseph Story to standardize and invigorate the study of law at America's lead- ing university have served as a convenient line of demarcation.3 The intimate ties between the school's leaders and the emerging industrial capitalist elites of New England make the tale particularly appealing to minds with a conspiratorial bent. Joseph Story-a prolific and learned judge who wore his class prejudices as a badge of honor-is * The author would like to thank Professors Hendrik Hartog and William Nelson, the participants in the New York University Law School Legal History Colloquium, and the staff of the New York University Law Review for their comments and editorial assistance. Special thanks to Melissa Eidelheit and Kieran Ringgenberg for editing with their usual skill while operating on an expedited schedule. Most of all, he would like to thank Deborah Ahrens, without whose intellectual and moral support none of his work would be possible. 1 Developing a citation format to meet the needs of both the historical and legal communities is a challenge which has perplexed many legal historians.

    12/30/2019 List of Skull and Bones members - Wikipedia List of Skull and Bones members Skull and Bones, a secret society at Yale University, was founded in 1832. Until 1971, the organization published annual membership rosters, which were kept at Yale's library. In this list of notable Bonesmen, the number in parentheses represents the cohort year of Skull and Bones, as well as their graduation year. There are no official rosters published after 1982 and membership for later years is speculative.
