SUPERIOR COURT.
By an Act of the Legislature passed in 1839 a Recorder's Court was created for the city of Buffalo, and the appointment of the Recorder was vested in the Governor. The term of office was four years, and it was held by Horatio J. Stow from 1840 to 1844; Henry K. Smith from 1844 to 1848.
By the Constitution adopted in 1846, the office was made elective by the people, under which it was held by Joseph G. Masten from 1848 to 1852 ; George W. Houghton from 1852 to 1854.
An act was passed in 1854 by which the Court was reorganized and merged into the present Superior Court with three judges, whose term of office was fixed at six years. Provision was also made that the incumbent of the office of Recorder at the time of the reorganization, should serve as one of the Judges of the Superior Court for the remaining portion of the term for which he had been elected. Recorder Houghton was therefore under this arrange- ment entitled to serve two years as judge of the new court.
At the first election under the new law George W. Clinton and Isaac A. Ver- planck were chosen as the other judges, and upon casting lots for the long and short terms, Judge Clinton secured the full term of six years, and Judge Ver- planck that of four years. The judges of the reorganized court have been:
George W. Houghton 1854 to 1856
George W. Clinton.
1866 to 1872
I. A. Verplanck 1854 " 1858
Joseph G. Masten

I. A. Verplanck
1864 " 1870
George W. Clinton
1872
Judge Masten died in the spring of 1871, after serving two terms and a half, or fifteen years, and James M. Humphrey was appointed by Gov. Hoffman to . fill the vacancy. At the succeeding election in November, 1871, James Shel- don was elected as the successor of Mr. Humphrey.
Judge Verplanck died in the spring of 1873, after serving two full terms and two fractional terms, or a little more than eighteen years, and James M. Smith was appointed to the vacancy by Gov. Dix. At the succeeding election in November, 1873, Judge Smith was chosen his own successor.
148
By the constitutional amendments of 1870 the term of office was extended to fourteen years, and it is also provided that the judges shall be elected for the full term of fourteen years, whether chosen to fill a vacancy or other- wise. Instead, therefore, of Judges Sheldon and Smith being now serving out the unexpired terms of Judges Masten and Verplanck, they will hold for the full term of fourteen years from the date of their election. The present terms of Judges Clinton and Sheldon will expire December 31, 1886, and that of Judge Smith December 31, 1888.
The clerks of the Court have been :
M. Cadwallader
1839 to 1844
Dyre Tillinghast 1856 to 1862
Nelson Ford
