“
the class room his face became almost radiant and remarkably handsome. He was somewhat of a discipli- narian in the cUss room, and kept the young men constantly under his eye. He adhered rigidly to the lesson assigned for the dav. examined the class thoroughly upon it, and if one came without having pre- pared it he was sure to wish he had done so before the recitation closed. He had the tobacco habit and both smoked and chewed- His smoking was all done at home and usually with a cob pipe and long stem. His voice was thin, though not effeminate. It arrested the attention at once, and impressed one as the voice of a man in authority and of positive views. He had an irascible temper, was easily ruffled, impatient under restraint, and fearless of opposition. He was a man of the highest intellectu- ality and profound knowledge of the law. Judge Green was the opposite of his associate in almost everything excepting the high qualities of intellectuality and legal lore, in which particulars he was the equal of any man who ever lived in the State, a fact too well known to need any further remarks here. In stature he stood six feet five in his stockings, was raw baned, loose jointed and ungainly. This is said with the profoundest respect and reverence for his memory. Such physical characteristics did not prevent him from being one of the greatest and noblest men of his age. He was not so good looking as is his honored son, the Chancellor of the University, but even that in no way embarrassed him. His appearance was most venerable, his hair, usually worn long, was white as wool, a massive pair of gold rimmed spectacles always rested on his nose, his stride was immense, his step lumbering, and his voice the roar of a lion; impetuous, compassionate and full of charity, he loved everything from the humblest flower in his garden up to his brother man. The writer has often likened him to the Apostle Peter, that is to the picture which the writer has formed in his own mind of that bold and impetuous follower of Christ. He thundered in the class room, did not adhere so closely as Judge Caruthers to the lesson in hand, but grew often on the vast store of learning that crowded his brain, and from this deep well the students delighted to drink. God bless the memory of these two honored and revered fathers, to the old boys who were so fortunate as to have received instruction from them. They set the Law School upon the enduring foundation, as its continued prosperity attests, and it can now be truthfully said no other school of this country within the first half century of its existence has fur- nished the profession a more honorable and worthy body of graduates than has this one. All horor to the memory of Caruthers and Green.
