GRAY, HORACE (18281902)

This article appears in Volume V12, Page 391 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: GRA-GUI
GRAY, HORACE (18281902) , American jurist, was born in Boston,
Massachusetts
 , on the 24th of
March
  1828. He graduated at Harvard in 1845; was admitted to the bar in 1851, and in 18541861 was reporter to the Supreme Court of
Massachusetts
 . He practised law, first in partnership with Ebenezer Rockwood Hoar, and later with Wilder
Dwight
  (18231862) and Charles F.. Blake; was appointed associate
justice
  of the state Supreme Court on the 23rd of August 1864, becoming
chief
 -
justice
  on the 5th of September 1873; and was associate justice of the Supreme Court of the United States from December 1881 to August 1902, resigning only a few weeks before his death at Nahant, Mass., on the 15th of- September 1902. Gray had a fine sense of the dignity of the bench, and a
taste
  for historical study. His judgments were unmistakably clear and contained the essence of earlier opinions. A
great
  case lawyer, he was a much greater judge, the variety of his knowledge and his contributions to admiralty and prize law and to testamentary law being particularly striking; in constitutional law he was a " loose " rather than a " strict " constructionist.
See Francis C.
Lowell
 , "
Horace
  Gray," in Proceedings of the American
Academy
 , vol. 39, pp. 627-637 (Boston, 1904).
