that It was justice itself, expressed in terms.

Mr. Choato is now about II fiy-ll voyeurs

practice is diversified and enormous. He
Is ono of tho few men who Is followed into

law ho stands llrst among the lawyers of
America, and foreign governments have
so recognized his abilities that he has lon

Mr. Coudert, while not ranking qui tothi
rqtiiil of Mr. Choato as an advocate, is still
esteemed not far behind that eminent pro
