In 1854 he came to Chicago, and since that period until his promotion to the Supreme bench, he followed his chosen profession. His official life is easily summed up. He ran against Jameson as a candidate for Judge Of the Superior Court in 1866, but was unsuccessful. In 1868 he ran for Judge of the Recor der's Court, and was overwhelmingly elected.
