  • Bicentennial Celebration of the U.S. Attorneys
    Bicentennial Celebration of the United States Attorneys 1789 - 1989 "The United States Attorney is the representative not of an ordinary party to a controversy, but of a sovereignty whose obligation to govern impartially is as compelling as its obligation to govern at all; and whose interest, therefore, in a criminal prosecution is not that it shall win a case, but that justice shall be done. As such, he is in a peculiar and very definite sense the servant of the law, the twofold aim of which is that guilt shall not escape or innocence suffer. He may prosecute with earnestness and vigor– indeed, he should do so. But, while he may strike hard blows, he is not at liberty to strike foul ones. It is as much his duty to refrain from improper methods calculated to produce a wrongful conviction as it is to use every legitimate means to bring about a just one." QUOTED FROM STATEMENT OF MR. JUSTICE SUTHERLAND, BERGER V. UNITED STATES, 295 U. S. 88 (1935) INTRODUCTION In this, the Bicentennial Year of the United States Constitution, the people of America find cause to celebrate the principles formulated at the inception of the nation Alexis de Tocqueville called, “The Great Experiment.” The experiment has worked, and the survival of the Constitution is proof of that. But with the celebration of the Constitution must also come the commemoration of those sharing responsibility for the realization of those noble principles in the lives of the American people, those commissioned throughout our nation’s history as United States Attorneys.

Pumpelly who broke the traditional bottle of wine across her bow. As a matter of historic interest it may be said that a reproduction of the Susquehannah was used as an emblem on the first official seal of Owego village. On the 5th of May the new boat was run up the river about five miles, and on the next day about three miles down, on both occasions working to the satisfaction of her owners. On the morn ing of the 6th the Susquehannah started for Wilkesbarre, and reached there at 4:40 o'clock, p. m., but the return voyage occu pied three days. Later several other trips were made, but some accident or mishap happened on each occasion. In the spring of 1837 the boat was driven ashore by the ice at the mouth of Owego off" creek, and she was not "got and repaired until late in the season. Finally she steamed up and went to Wilkesbarre, and from there went adrift on high water and floated several miles down "attached" the river. She was eventually to pay for repairs, and sold for $60. Blanchard, her builder, sued the company on his contract and a long litigation followed, finally resulting in a judg ment in his favor, to satisfy which each of the directors was com pelled to pay $428.48 in addition to his original investment in the enterprise. Blanchard, in turn, was brought into court at the suit of James Pumpelly, for moneys advanced, and another long suit resulted.
