LACEY 1848-1936 A MEMORIAL BY JOHN D. CLARK �JOHN W. LACEY 1848-1936 This memorial article written by John D. Clark when the distinguished career of Judge Lacey closed in February, 1936, is republishetl by the American National Bank of Cheyenne for distribution to the lawyers of \Vyoming. Judge Lacey was an interested and helpful stockholder of the bank almost from its beginning, and Dr. Clark was one of the organizers and is an active director. �EM.ORY is not long enough to reach beyond the time when Judge John W. Lacey was a familiar figure to me. In those early years of his Wyoming career he had already attained distinction. The half century which has now passed has enlarged, not diminished, that eminence. In more than one respect his qualities were unique. M.any great lawyers have been leaders of their communities and so it is not surprising that he long held that position in Cheyenne and in Wyoming. But whereas this leadership is ordinarily the outcome of active participation in public affairs in which legal ability and prominence add to the man's influence, Judge Lacey's participation in such affairs was always non-assertive and reticent. His influence in these matters was the reflection of his high repute as a lawyer. Nor is there any parallel which comes to mind of one with similar breadth and intensity of fame as the leader of the bar of any state. His reputation passed beyond the profession and permeated the business world, reaching even into those ranks of �the population which have no interest • 1 in awyers. It was of such a quality that he attained an a u th onty • the like of which I have never observed anywhere in the United States. "Getting an opinion from Judge Lacey'' was more than a proposal to secure the best possible legal advice; in the opinion of business men and laymen it was even more than the equivalent of securing a judgment from the supreme court of Wyoming. The supreme court might be wrong. substantial royalty on future oil production. The secretary rejected the offer upon the advice of his solicitor that there was no basis for settlement because the government was sure to win. But the legal argument made by Judge Lacey, whom I selected in preference to any of the lawyers of national repute who were suggested by my associates, persuaded a unanimous supreme court to construe the statute in favor of the title claimed by the state. His ability was of the first rank in nearly every branch of the lawyer's work. His arguments upon points of law, where his supreme power of rigid analysis had its fullest play, were always works of art and were seldom unsuccessful. I believe my last contact with him as an advocate was in connection with litigation with the federal government over the title to oil land which the state claimed and had leased to my company. The only question was the correct construction of an act of congress under which the state claimed the title. While the con- troversy wa~ pending in the supreme court of the United States I made a compromise offer to the Secretary of the Interior of a million dollars and a Of all of his exceptional qualities the one I most admired was his mastery of the technique of understatement. Because I am forever suffering for lack of even the slighest capacity in that respect I always envy one who exhibits it, and never have I found a lawyer or lecturer who even approached Judge Lacey in its skillful use. His method was his own and would have been amusing had it not been so successful. In a conference or discussion he seldom made a dogmatic statement, but would offer a succession of tentative judgments, each so reasonable that assent could hardly be refused and so phrased that assent led one into the appearance I. �of having made the statement himself so that he could not hesitate when the premises so readily accepted forced a conclusion which would otherwise have been contested. He not only compelled your agreement upon a principle, judgment or plan which you knew was incorrect; he did it in such a way that you believed you had argued yourself into the agreement. And some of us try to win arguments by the loudest shouting I He was always gracious as well as courteous and he seldom failed to find an opportunity to lift up the spirits of a defeated young opponent by saying a word of commendation for some feature of his effort. At no time has the bar of Wyoming contained a group of lawyers to challenge the prestige of those who were the leaders of the profession when the territory became a I regret for the younger members of the bar the passing of their opportunity to profit by observation of Judge Lacey in action and by occasional contact with him as opponent. It was my good fortune to begin the practice when he actively exercised his fullest powers in a field where we were often brought into association and into conflict and no part of my legal training was as important as that experience. The lessons gained from him as an opponent were, of course, the most lasting and therefore the most vclluable. They usually involved the sting of defeat but never were they humiliating on account of any word or attitude of Judge Lacey. His court manner was as impeccable as his technique was skillful. state. Among them Judge Lacey found worthy competitors. As they passed he emerged more distinctly as the leader of the profession until he became a lonely figure. There remain a tiny group of our colleagues who began the practice during territorial days and later became distinguished. But when Judge Lacey retired the last of the great pioneers was gone. The greatest of them was the last. �--- March, 1936 EMPLOYES: MAGAZINE » » Timers » Death of Honor ble John W. Lacey UDGE JOH N W. LACE ', known as th e Nestor of the Wyoming legal pr fession, passed away at hi s home in Cheyenne at 5 . M., Tuesda y, February ll, in his eighty-seventh year. Judge Lacey was born in Randolph Co unt y, Indi ana, on October 13, 1848, the so n of the Reverend Henry J . Lacey and Elizabeth (Thompso n ) Lacey. His father was a Methodist mini ster, who rea red a famil y of four so ns and three daughter . While the boy's earl y educati on wa s secured in the public schoo ls of the va riou town - in whi ch the famil y resided, pursuant to the custom of itinerant ministr y in the Methodist Church, a wa then conducted, he, after co mpl etin g his elementar y ed ucation, entered DePauw Uni versity of I ndiana, and wa graduated therefrom with th e cla of 1871. Thereafter he took up the profession of tea hing, his initi al step toward the p rofession whi ch he later adopted and adorned. The yo ung Mr. Lacey began readin g law under the direction of Isaac Van Devanter, of Ivla ri on , Indi ana, lVIr. Van Devanter retaining th e yo ung man in hi s office until his admission to the bar in 1875. Durin g the four-year stud y peri od, he also read law for a short interva l in the office of William O' Brien of No blesvill e, Indiana. Between Judge Lacey's grade schoo l days and the beginning of his college ca reer, he enlisted as a private so ldier in Company F of the 137th Indiana Infantry. when but 15 yea rs of age, se rving until th e close of the War. In this connection, it is proper to say that the United States Army, in which Judge Lacey served at a very tender age, rendered him full military honors in the form of minute gun firing during the funeral hour. Judge Lacey began the practice of law in l\farion, Indiana, wh ere he remained until 1884, when he was appointed by President Arthur to the position of Chief Justice of the Territory of Wyoming, sen ing in this. the highest judicial office in the Territory, until 1886, when in November of that year he resigned his position upon the bench to enter into the partnership of W. W. Corlett and Judge John A. Riner, under the firm name of Corlett, Lacey & Riner. Following the death of Mr. Corlett, the partnership continued under the firm name of Lacey & Riner, until Mr. Riner was appointed United States District Judge in 1890. Somewhat later, Judge Lacey entered into partnership with his brother-in-law, Willis Van Devanter, who for the past several years, has occupied the exalted position of Associate Justice of the United States Supreme Court, Judge J 1 « « « Lacey's partnership with Justice Van Devanter terrninatir g in 1897. Ju dge Lacey was appointed General Co unsel for the ni on Pacific Railroad in Wyoming in 1889, at a time when the fortunes of the Railroad Company were at a rather low ebb, his service continuing th ro ugh the receivership period, the purchase of same by Mr. W. H . Harriman, and th ereafter through the reconstruction period, co ntinuin g until hi s resignati on a few year ago. Judge Lacey wa · po e ed of a keen, rapid, log• ical mind. with a continued capacity fo r hard work. T hough of mall phy ique, one had to address Judge Lacey but bri efl y before r ecognizi ng hi s ea rnest, di gnifi ed, courteo u manner. Judge Lacey wa united in marriage to Miss Elizabeth Van Devanter, daughter of Mr. Isaac Van Deva nter. before referred to, and who still survi ves, and to them wer born six children. A so n, Herbert V., perfected him self in the profession of law, and wa hi _ fath er"s pa rtn er until his untimely death a few year ago . Dr. \Va lter M., another so n, who survives, wa a cap tain in the United States Army at F ort Ril ey. Kan sas, now engaged in the practice of med icine at Cheyen ne. A daughter, Ruth , became th e wife of W. H. Barber, now residing at Greeley, Co lorado . Ano ther daughter. Mrs. James Speer, resides at Knoxville, Tennessee, also Mrs. John McGee at Cas per. Wyo min g, and Mrs. William Hankins, Uniontoll'n , Pennsylvania. In 1874. Judge Lacey received the degree of A. M. fro m his alma mater, DePauw, and in 1914, he was acco rded the degree of LLD . from the University of De11\'er. Judge Lacey's political affiliations were with the Republican party. He also received various Masonic degrees through both the York and Scottish Rite. In recent years, Judge Lacey, with Mrs. Lacey, made numerous and extended trips abroad. Funeral services were held at the family h.orne at Cheyenne, at 2:30 P. M., Thursday, February 13, with Reverend Charles A. Bennett of St. Mark's Episcopal Church officiating. The remains of Judge Lacey were borne to the grave by prominent members of the Wyoming Bar, and with him passed one of the most brilliant and constructive legal minds that ever graced the western legal profession. _,j Death Takes WilUam McIntosh of Superior ·There died suddenly on Sunday evening, February 9, while performing an errand of mercy, William McIntosh of Superior.

In the first flush of his success he had marri ed Olivia Langdon, of Elmira, New York, who was to be the adored mistress of his heart until th e end and the merciless censor of all his manuscripts. She edited everything, and, as he was ruefully given to acknowledge, she edited him ; the man he became was in grea t pa rt the man of Olivia's makin g-no lon ger the reckless and magnificen t Westerner but, as M r. Van Wyck Brooks, his most searching critic, mai ntains, the ca ndidate for gentility and , in hi s s pl endid Connecticut homes, a pill ar of New England society.

His democratic republicanism made him an impassioned champion of racial and socia l justice, an outspoken opponent of civi c and politica l co rrupti on . He took his stand with th e defenders of clean government in New Yo rk City; he was one cf the band which in the American crisi s of ] 884, broke th e rock-ribbed Grand Old Party and so help ed to ca rr y Grover Cleveland into the Presidency. Hi pen was ever at the servi ce of the oppressed, a nd, a s we ma y recall with especial appropria teness today. th e fanati cs of anti-Semiti sm had no more sn{ashin g antago nist than Ma rk Twain. Throughout hi s la ter yea rs the con trast behreen his world-wide triumphs and the pessimism which. in ferociou s speech and violent bursts of temper, he announced as hi s deepest conviction made a probl em that his friend s refused to take seriously. Mark Twain, the di spenser of laughter among millions, exhau sted the resources of the American language in denunciation of " the damned human race." Yet that race insisted upon treating him as a favourite public character. Mark Twain was reckless and confiding in matters of business. With an abandon that seems the merest folly he went into publishing and financed an unworkable type-setting machine at a time when he was commanding the highest payment for his writing. He crashed, and then proudly started on a world lecturing tour for the payment of his debts. At sixty he was once more a free man and in the enjoyment of an almost unequalled renown . He was America's representative man -picturesque in his white suit and his wonderful white mane; courted, flattered, indulged; interviewed on every pretext or on none; the acknowledged and beloved master of American wisdom, wilfulness, kindly malice, humour. In 1907, three years before his death, Oxford tendered him the honour which he held in higher ~steem than any other. "Although," he wrote, " I wouldn't cross an ocean again for the price of the ship that ca rried me, I am glad to do it for an Oxford degree"; and he would have liked to wear the gown of the Oxford honorary doctor over the celebrated white su it.

The father -.;ms a liethodis"ii minister and 1?eared a family of fou:r sons and three daughters. \"J ell descended and v1ell bred, Judge Lacey had t he advantages offered in a home of culture and refinement. :!-Ie pu:r:med hi s education in the public s chools of var ious tovms in 1:rhich the family lived 0\7in g to the custom of itine1?ant minira-tzy in the IIIe·lihodist church at that pe:ciod. Later he entered DePaurr Univer s ity of Indiana. and 'l.'JaS graduated therefrom nitn. the class of 1871. He took up i,he :profession of teaching, Tihich he follo\7ed for a short time, but regarded · this merely as an initial step to o th.er professional activity and began reading l~a under the direction of Isaac Van Devanter, of Marion, Indiana, vJbo 1~emained bis pziecepto;e until he was admitted to the bar in 1875. ~ rior to 1875 he had read law at intervals in the office of '1'lillia.m O'Brien of Jfoblesville, Indiana, It has been said that a lar.ryer's e:i(perience should be as broad as the uni verse, for he has to do m. th every phase of life. Judge Lacey brought to the starting point of hie career certain rare giftra -- eloquence of language and a strong personality. He, moreover, had back of' him experience as a soldier of the Civil uar. He uas only fifteen years of age when he enlisted for active service at the front, becoming �r 2 - a member of Company F of the One Hundred and Thirty-seventh Indiana Infe.ntry, ttl th vrhi ch he served until the close of the war. His training, too, at home had been of that kind which develops cllarac·ter a nd self-i•eliance. He ente1·ed upon the practice of his profes sion in Marion, Indiana, where he re- mained until 1884, when he was appointed by P re s ident .Al.·thur to the position of chief jus tice of Wyoming and se1·ved in the highest jucliciaJ. office of the te:-c:ritory until 1886. In November of that year, having resigned his position upon the bench, he entered into partnership \1 i th W. \'! . Corlett and Judge John A. Rin,er under the firm style of Corlett, Lacey & Riner. Follovring the death of Hr. Corlett t he partnershi p was continued under the firm nDIDe of Lacey & Riner a nd so existed until the junior partner uas appointed United States district judge in 1890.

Nature endo,;red him ,n. th some of ·i;hose qualities indispensable to the lawyer -- a keen, rapid, logical mind plus the business sense and a ready capacity for hard uork. An excellent presence, an eamest, dignified manner, marked strenc;th of character, a thorough gra.SJ.) of the law and the ability to accurately apply its principles are factors in his effectiveness as an advocate. In 1878 Judge Lacey "1:12.s united in marriage to Miss �r 3 Elizabeth Van DevMter, daughter of Isaac an Devanter, and to them have been born six children:, Herbert V., an attorney of Cheyenne; Walter M., M.: D. / ~~~;.-c} ~"Jc ~ptain in f he United States , A..; ~i.,. t,:,,e.r ,_ ~l . h --. ,~ I :.t, 1 service at Fort Riley, KeilsasA Ruth, the wife of W.
