I pray to be ex- cused for relating the personal anecdote.
More than fifty years ago, Samuel W. Fisher, the President of the Philadelphia Insurance Company, came one morning into my small office, then having Digitized by Google 71 abundant room for aU my visitors, and gave me a retainer to ai^ue the case of Gibson against that Company, which I afterwards reported. • Mr. Gibson, the plaintiff, who was a member of the Bar, and my master in the law, Mr. IngersoU, were to argue it against me. The q...uestion regarded the proper mode of adjusting a particular average imder a clause in a Respondentia Bond; and it was new, and not without difficulty. It came bdfore the Court upon exceptions to a report or award under the Act of 1703, made by Edward Tilghman, with the concurrence of another member of Ihe Bar, against the opinion of the third referee, who was also a member of the Bar ; and it turned altogetiier upon principles of commercial law.
I examined the papers, and then said to Mr. Filler, the President, " You are not going to leave me alone in this cause 1 You know who is against me 1" " I know all that," he said, '^ but I will not retain any- body else.
