DEATH OF BRO . JOHN HENDERSON , OF BERRY , SHETLAND .
The late Bro . John Henderson ; Barrister-at-Law , of Berry , Shetland , who died at his residence , in Green-street , Grosvenorsquare , on the 31 st December last , was the elder son of the late John Henderson , Esq ., of Liverpool , by Mary , second daughter of Andrew Bolt , Esq ., of Lerwick , Shetland . He was born at Liverpool , in the year 1798 , and having been
educated , under the care of Dr . Pulford , in that town , practised for several years as a special pleader , and was called to the bar at the Inner Temple in 1834 , and joined the Northern Circuit . He soon became known as a lawyer of that able and efficient class which has furnished the bench with many of its most
distinguished occupants , the class of " pleading" barristers ; and he obtained a fair amount of business , being much employed in cases that called for the skill and care of a scientific lawyer . Many learned and ingenious arguments of his are to be found in the reports . His manner was pleasing , and he spoke well ; with a more pushing temperament he would certainly have
made his way to a leading rank in his profession . His career , no doubt , was impeded in later years by the gradual advances of the illness to which he succumbed . He was revising barrister for Cumberland and Westmoreland , from 18 G 0 to 1863 , and for Northumberland from 1 S 63 to 1 S 66 . In the year 1 S 64 he was appointed a member of the ( unpaid )
Indian Law Commission , in the proceedings , of which he took a lively interest . His acquaintance with literature was varied and extensive , and his personal character stood high , not only on the Northern Circuit , but in the estimation of the bar in general , while he attached to himself a large circle of intimate friends by his kindness of heart and his many winning personal qualities . The deceased brother was buried at Kensal Green Cemetery
Bro . Henderson was a Past Master of the Lodge of Antiquity , No . % , and a Past Grand Registrar and Past Commander of the Encampment of Observance , & c . MR . AND MRS . HOWARD PAUL , who are now in
America , gave their Entertainment recently at "Washington before President Johnson and the Members of the Household . These very distinguished Artistes had a special invitation to the "White House , which was a double compliment , —to England and to America—Mrs . Paul being an English lady , and Mr . Paul being an American .
