ADMIRED AND LOVED.
AN EXAMPLE TO YOUNG MEN. SIR ROBERT STOUT'S EULOGY. (By Telegraph—Own Correspondent.) DUNEDIX, this day. "I am very sorry to hear of the death of Sir Charles," said Sir Robert Stout, who was his predecessor in the Chief Justiceship. "Apparently the walls of his arteries were weak after the first amputation, and his second leg had to be amputated. Perhaps, being at sea, there has been additional pressure on the heart, and that has led to this catastrophe. "The late Chief Justice was an able man, and an able lawyer, and I feel sure that everyone admired his character. He was very trustworthy, and fair in all hie dealings. No one could have acted better than he did as a member of the profession. He was also a man given to study and reading, and the Bench of New Zealand has lost a most able judge, one whom I am sure lawyers and others who came in contact with him admired and loved.
