Abstract
"I first began to hear about the Honorable Mr. Justice William Edward Middleton in 1933. I was a second year law student and had been reassigned to the litigation side of my articling firm after a year of searching titles, serving and filing court papers, and serving foreclosure writs.... Everyone spoke of Middleton in tones of respect and admiration and even of affection. To me he was an old man. he was seventy-three; I was twenty-two..." - Preface
