B. 5. 05000 Mr. B. F. Good was born April 2, 1860, near Bloomfield, Iowa, where he resided until 1882. Supplementary to a thorough com- mon school education, he attended the Southern Iowa Normal School, from which institution he graduated in 1882. In this same year he entered the State University of Iowa, taking a special course in history and languages, and graduating from the law department of the university in 1885 with the degree of LLB. In August of 1885 Mr. Good came to Nebraska and settled at Wahoo. He formed a partnership with Mr. E. E. Good and immediately took up the practice of law at that place. I-Ie has made Wahoo his home during his entire residence in Nebraska, and the firm of Good 85 Good has become well known to the legal fraternity of the state. For five years Mr. Good has held the position of leturer on 'CLimitations of Actions, and has become deservedly popular in that somewhat abstruse, but very important branch of the law. I-Ie was married in June, 1890, to Miss Jennie Jessen, of Ne- braska City, and they have two children. I-Iis ample good nature is accounted for by the fact that, as he says, HI-Iis father and mother were Irish, and he is Irish too? Although never aspir- ing to political prominence, he takes great interest in the move- ments of the day, and is a firm believer in the principles of democracy. '
