Reprint of the original, first published in 1883.

Excerpt from Sixteenth Biennial Report of the Trustees, Superintendent and Treasurer of the Illinois Institution for the Blind, at Jacksonville: October 1, 1852 We had known Judge Burr for years, and to know him long and well was but to know' him with increasing esteem and admiration. As a jurist, his integrity, his manliness, and his legal attain ments, commanded confidence and respect, and his death called forth universal grief in the judicial district over which he presided. Our association with him as trustee of the Institution for the Blind, which began June 4, 1877, and closed when his life ended, was characterized by unity of thought and action. We ever found him attentive to the duties of his office, interested in the affairs of the institution, and anxious for its welfare.
