Excerpt from Stark County Illinois and Its People, Vol. 2: A Record of Settlement, Organization, Progress and AchievementImmediately afterward Mr. Thomas returned to his native town and was admitted to the bar in Toulon in September, 1872. He opened a law office in Wyoming and was successful in building up a large prao tice of a most important character. No dreary novitiate awaited him. He proved his ability in the trial of early cases, which indicated the thoroughness of his preparation and his comprehensive knowledge of law principles. He was attorney for the Rock Island and Chicago, Burlington Quincy Railroad Companies for about eighteen years. He also served as city attorney of Wyoming for about twenty years, discharging his duties with marked ability and thus carefully safe guarding the interests of the city. His elevation to the bench was the logical sequence of the splendid record which he had made as advocate and counselor and he is now serving for the second term as judge of Stark county. His career as a judge is in harmony with that of his record as a man and citizen - characterized by the utmost fidelity to duty and by a masterful grasp of every problem presented for solution.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
