Notes from the Capital

Day, William R. | February 24, 1916 issue

add to cart   close window

Justice William R. Day of the Supreme Court came into national notice about the time that William McKinley began his campaign for the Presidency. He was a neighbor of McKinley's at Canton, Ohio, and the two men were on the most intimate personal terms. That their friendship was not a matter of self-interest on Day's part was evident from the fact that he was the better lawyer, and that he had had opportunities for advancement in the line of his profession which he had declined, partly because of his disinclination towards public life and partly because his health was never robust.
