OLD SEAFORTH BOY A JUDGE.
Tlie people of Seaforth and 'Huron
County, no doubt, were delighted to
note in Monday's daily press that
-Mr. J. 1., Killoran, barrister of Sea -
forth and Goderich, had been ap-
pointed by the Dominion Govern-
ment to the position -of County
Judge.
Mr. Killoran is. the elder son of
the late John and '.Mrs. Killoran, born
in the 'town of Seaforth and receiv-
ed his earlier education in the
schools and Collegiate Institute of
Seaforth; aftervrards taking up the
profession of law, and 'graduating at
Osgoode Hall, Toronto, about
twenty'five years agog Following
his graduation Mr. Killoran com-
menced practice of his profession in
ter he be-
Seaforth. A few' years later
carate associated with the firm of
Proudfoot & Killoran, Goderich; to
Which town he removed, but con-
tinued his connection with Seaforth
by 'weekly visits to i its his
local office
here. In the legal, 'pro'fession Mr.
Killoratt was one of the leading'prac
titione's of the County of Huron and
Western Ontario. and the general
feeling is that the appointment of
Mr. Killoran to a judgeship is a good
appointment: and well merited by the
recipient.
We have not learned to which
county Mr. Killoran's appointment
applies 'but it is expected changes
will take place in Perth County, in
'whic'h case Mr. Killoran would go
to Stratford, as County Judge of
Perth.
