Speaking on behall: or Justices Herdman Reed and himself, Mr Justice Hosking stated that clcainess of speech, thoroughness and neatness of expression served in his eminence in practice at the Bar.

Ho had left behind deeisions which had gone on reced'd. He was a kindly Judge to prae isie before; he had discharged his Juries in a manner which the Bench, He Bar and the public could (i.ese).'.ibe as being faithfully and well.
