Political reminiscence on judges and elections in Massachusetts

Judge Sumner defeated me by 119 votes and indorsement by Mr. Kingman. I filled a year as judge after Sumner’s election, convicting Delucca for murder in Milton. I was not reappointed by Governor Brackett, ran again in 1890, and won by 2560 votes. I have rare public office, enjoy water sport, and expect Governor Russell’s reelection. The district sees rising registration, especially in Brockton and Quincy. The shoe industry and free hides politics affect local manufacturing. Norfolk county dominates district attorney tenure. Plymouth should retain it longer.
