JUDGE SPENCE
PASSES AWAY
IN SOUTHLAND
Judge William N. Spence, one of
South Georgia’s most prominent men
for more than a quarter of a century,
died in Albany, Ga., October 25, fol
lowing an illness of but a few weeks.
Judge Spence was a man of state-wide
reputation for probity and upright
ness, and held the esteem of all who
knew him as a man and a neighbor.
Judge Spence was born in Stewart
county, Georgia, sixty-eight years ago.
When a child he removed with his
parents to Brooks county, and lived
there for many years, finally remov
ing to Mitchell county, where the
greater span of a long and useful life
was spent.
Judge Spence held many important
political offices, and wielded a potent
influence in the affairs of Southern
Georgia. In 1881 he was elected to
the legislature from Mitchell county,
and served four years. In 1885 he
was elected solicitor general of the
Albany judicial circuit, holding that
office until April, 1896, when he suc
ceeded Judge B. B. Bower of Bain
bridge, Ga., as judge of the circuit
court, holding that office until Jan.
1, 1909. In 1910 he ran second in a
three-cornered race for congress.
The last public office held by Judge
Spence was that of United States dis
trict attorney for the Third division
of Alaska, at Valdez. He was ap
pointed to that post by President Wil
son and served until the fall of 1917,
when he resigned and returned to his
native state. During the past sum
mer he purchased the Arthur home,
on Society street, and moved with his
family to this city.
Judge Spence is survived by his wife
and seven children. The children are:
Henry T. Spence of Albany; Lieut.
Col. William Spence, military instruc
tor at West Point; Sam Bennett
Spence, a student at Mercer Univer
sity; and the Misses Susie, Toy, Ruth
and Dorothy Spence of Albany. He
left numerous relatives throughout
the state, the family being one of wide
connection ana prominence, ivirs. n.
G. Riley of Albany is a sister.
Funeral exercises were held at the
family residence and were attended-by
many prominnt families of South
Georgia who knew and were close to
the deceased in his social and busi
ness affairs. Interment was in Oak
view cemetery.
Judge Spence was truly one of South
Georgia’s prominent and leading men.
His long life made him known to prac
tically everyone in the section in
which he lived. He had the reputa
tion of being a just judge and an up
right and worthy citizen. He was
loved by a wide circle of friends, and
in every county in this district the
news of his death will lie read with
profound sorrow and a sense of per
sonal loss.—Albany, Ga., Herald.
