Mr. Justice Harlan, Presiding Justice, said: "Gentlemen of the Bar: Since the last term the Honorable Charles Evans Hughes has been appointed an associate justice of this court to fill the vacancy occasioned by the death of Mr. Justice Brewer. Mr. Hughes is present and prepared to take the required oath of office. The court extends a most cordial welcome to the new member. The clerk will read his commission and administer the oath." The clerk then read the commission and Mr. Hughes took the oath of office and was escorted by the marshal to his seat on the bench. Mr. Justice Harlan continued: "Gentlemen of the Bar: Since its last session this court has sus- tained a very great loss. The earthly career of the Chief Justice has been closed by death. This sad event occurred on the 4th day of Juty of the present year at his summer residence, after nearly twenty- three years of continuous and distinguished service on this bench. He met the final summons with that calmness of spirit and compo- sure of mind that marked his whole life. From his early manhood he walked in the good way, uprightly before God and his fellow-men, and passed from this life into the life be}T ond the grave in the con- fident belief, I doubt not, that the Maker and Ruler of the Earth ordereth all things aright.
