He passed th birthday. Judge Ludwig graduated from Germantown Friends School and earned degrees from Harvard College and Harvard away on May 17, 2016, just three days shy of his 88 Law School. A Korean War veteran, he was honorably discharged from the Army Judge Advocate General’s Corps in 1956. Judge Ludwig had resided in Doylestown, Pennsylvania, since beginning in private practice in 1958. In 1968, he was elected to the Bucks County Court of Common Pleas and it was there that his interest in mental health reform began. His colleague and fellow Bucks County resident, U.S. District Judge Cynthia Rufe, recalled appearing before Judge Ludwig when she was a public defender. Judge Rufe noted that Judge Ludwig had a gift for knowing how to steer troubled youth from delinquency to rehabilitation. Judge Ludwig sat on the state court until his appointment to the United States District Court by President Ronald Reagan in June 1985. Judge Ludwig became a senior judge in 1997. Baseball umpires’ strike in 1996.

Alomar claimed Hirschbeck had uttered a racial slur. Judge Ludwig ordered the umpires back to work but calmed the waters by finding: “These umpires are the best, and without them, the harm to baseball will be irreparable. The game of baseball occupies a special place in this country and it belongs to the millions of fans.” Judge Ludwig will always be a favorite son of Doylestown. His love of Doylestown grew as he became involved in the town’s history and culture. Judge Ludwig founded the Doylestown Historical Society and served as its chairman until 2011. He collected oral histories of prominent citizens, worked on books about Doylestown’s past, and placed historic markers all over town. He made it a priority to preserve its charm.

  • Henfield's Case and the Origins of Lawfare in the United States
    Replacing the ªSword of Warº with the ªScales of Justiceº: Hen®eld's Case and the Origins of Lawfare in the United States Scott Ingram* United States District Attorney William Rawle rose from his seat in the hot, stuffy Philadelphia City Hall, on July 26, 1793, to give the most important speech of his legal career. As the United States Government's lawyer in Pennsylvania, Rawle was responsible for prosecuting United States v. Gideon Hen®eld , a case of critical signi®cance to the young nation. 1 The world's eyes seemed to focus on him as he began his closing argument. Sitting nearby was United States Attorney General Edmund Randolph.2 Randolph had drafted the Neutrality Proclamation which Hen®eld had allegedly violated. Also present was Jared Ingersoll, Rawle's colleague and a signer of the federal constitution, who was there to represent Hen®eld.3 Meanwhile, the country's highest of®cials were awaiting the verdict. Thomas Jefferson and Alexander Hamilton, Secretaries of State and Treasury respectively, were engaged in an ideological struggle over neutrality; the out- come of Hen®eld's case was critical for their personal political objectives. 4 President George Washington, seeking to keep the ¯edgling federal government and the nation he served out of war, hoped the case would demonstrate United States neutrality. 5 The American people watched, most supporting the French and their revolution, though others supported the British, at war with France. The French, who needed funds to execute their United States strategy and who owned 6 the vessel on which Hen®eld had served, sought justice for their sailor.

  • The Indispensable Mr. Jay and George Washington's
    THE INDISPENSABLE MR. JAY AND GEORGE WASHINGTON’S VALEDICTORY For nearly a quarter of a century, John Jay proved himself indispensable to the cause of American liberty and the establishment of the United State of America. The positions that Jay held were so numerous they consumed an entire page when he took the time to write a partial history of his career as a public officiali. The more notable positions held by Jay were that of president of the Continental Congress, first Chief Justice of the State of New York during which period he served on a committee to draft the state‘s first constitution which provided for a bicameral legislature that would ultimately be included in the U.S. Constitution. In a letter to Robert R. Livingston and Gouveneur Morris he regretted that the issue of slavery had not been dealt with in the state constitution, “I should also have been for a clause against the continuation of domestic slavery. “ii Jay was also Minister Plenipotentiary to Spain during the Revolutionary War and he worked for Spain‘s support and financial assistance for the American cause. He was key to the negotiations as Peace Commissioner to the Treaty of Paris and Minister of Foreign Affairs under the Articles of Confederation. He co-authored THE FEDERALIST with Alexander Hamilton and James Madison and their efforts led to the ratification of the Constitution in New York state. In support of the ratification efforts in New York State, Jay also wrote a pamphlet entitled AN ADDRESS TO THE PEOPLE OF NEW YORK.

If he had stood on ceremony, he could have called himself Colonel Wilson (he was formally a colonel in the Cumberland County militia), but his countrymen would probably have rolled their eyes. A scholarly, bespectacled lawyer with no obvious martial abilities, Wilson had yet to draw his sword in battle (Figure I.1). But he had contributed notably to the cause of American independence with an even more powerful weapon— his pen. After emigrating from his native Scotland in his twenties, Wilson had become a leader of the Pennsylvania bar and the author of an influential pamphlet advocating the cause of the American colonies.1 Elected as a delegate to the Second Continental Congress, Wilson had proudly signed the Declaration of Independence at the Pennsylvania State House, the building that future generations would enshrine as Independence Hall. Wilson’s conduct had thus made him one of the most prominent American traitors to Great Britain and a rich prize for any British military unit that man- aged to capture him.
