THE PRESIDENT, addressing the meeting,
said :—
It has been the practice for the President
in his address at the May General Meeting
to refer to matters of interest which arose
since the holding of the November General
Meeting.
Members who read the GAZETTE will have
noticed that a number of Solicitors who
occupied prominent positions in the pro
fession have passed away. Amongst them
one stands out as entitled to special notice.
I refer to Mr. Arthur H. Julian, of Cork,
who was admitted a Solicitor in the year
1872. He died in the month of February of
the present year, and during his years was
an outstanding member of the profession.
A few years ago when the interest of the
country Solicitors was awakened by the
movement, the result of which was the
election of many of them to the Council,
Mr. Julian—then a very senior member of
the provincial Solicitors—showed a youthful
energy that was astonishing. His enthusiasm
and his energy were largely responsible for
the widespread interest engendered amongst
the provincial Solicitors.
The profession as a whole may well regret
his death, and cannot fail to cherish the
memory of, one who never failed to do his
duty to his profession.
