JUDGE WILLIAM CAMPBELL was elected to the judgeship on the democratic ticket in
1859. He was an able newspaper man, having been editor for several years of the
Sierra Democrat. In 1855 he had been defeated for the office of county clerk by
Alfred Helm. He left the county in 1862, but drew his salary until 1863, when he
resigned, went to Virginia City, and entered into a law partnership there with
Judge R. H. Taylor. He was afterwards a district attorney in Nevada, and died in
1876.
