word. Take all circuit and probate courts on the East
|
|
2
|
Coast. In Baltimore City you can get an estate finished,
|
|
3
|
account okayed, counsel fee for anything involved, and
|
|
4
|
in a shorter time and done right than any other court on
|
|
5
|
the Eastern Seaboard.

This is my personal opinion from lawyers
|
|
7
|
that come in that do have a lot of practice in our court.

I again say the Register of Wills cooperates in this
|
|

thing whsre they give good service.

MS. ENEY: I would like to make a statement
|
|
11
|
and follow up this same discussion because it seems to
|
|
12
|
the this is the crux of the whole matter. I have been
|
|
13
|
practicing law thirty-seven years. When I came to the
|
|
14
|
Bar, the Orphans Court of Baltimore City had three
|
|
15
|
laymen as did the Baltimore City Court. At some point
|
|
16
|
later, it became the practice to have all lawyers on the
|
|
17
|
Bench in Baltimore City, fairly early, in the thirties.
|
|
18
|
It has never been deviated from then.
|
|

|
One thing I have never been able to under-
|
|
20
|
stand, get through my head at all, is why we have to have
|
|
21
|
a judge of the status that we think the Supreme Bench
