TERMS OF CIRCUIT COURT
Terms of Circuit Court in Hancock County- Dates, places, names of judges presiding, and of principal officers.
In the following list, the name of the judge given is the judge who presided at the opening of the term, and whose name appears in the convening order of court. Part of any such term may have been held by another judge. One judge may have opened the term as a matter of convenience, and another judge have held the remainder of the term. Especially is this true of the June term since the election of judges has been held on the first Monday of June. The practice has been for the out- going judge to open the term and adjourn to such future date as would give time for the incoming judge to be commissioned, whereupon the latter would preside at the remainder of the June term. While Judge Scofield was on the Appellate bench from 1893 to 1897, he was detained at Mt. Vernon at the commencement of the March term, and Judge Oscar P. Bonney of Quincy presided at the opening of the March term, and adjourned the court to such future day as would enable Judge Scofield to return home from the term of the Appellate Court at Mt. Vernon.
