Hon. Stanley Matthews. Among the many notable names contributed by the State of Ohio to the records of the American Bench and Bar, and they have been many and notable indeed, but few stand so high either in the estimation of their fellow jurists for wisdom and learning or in that of the people generally as a dispenser of justice in fact as well as in name, as does that of Hon. Stanley Matthews, of Cincinnati. As a jurist there is none who has a more deserved reputation for integrity and impartiality, none who has more disinterestedly and indefatigably labored for the well-being of his fellows and the maintenance of the high tradition of the bar of his country. Judge Matthews was born on a farm in Clinton county, Ohio, December 14, 1878, a son of John W. and Sarah O. (Pierce) Matthews, and from both sides of his family inherited a strong tendency toward the law, his maternal grandfather being a lawyer, as well as his paternal grandfather who was also a lawyer. As far back as his paternal great-great-grandfather, who was a judge of the Common Pleas Court in Highland county, Ohio, has this family trait been manifested. Judge Matthews-obtained his early education in public schools of his native township, and like many other jurists began his career as a teacher, when only sixteen years of age. After a somewhat limited experience in this direction, during which time he applied himself during his spare time to study of law, he entered the law department of the Cincinnati University. After studying here for three years, during which time he was always at the head of his classes he was graduated with the class of 1900, with the degree of Bachelor of Laws. Immediately after finishing his studies Judge Matthews accepted a position as law clerk in the offices of Harper and Allen, with whom he remained for a short time. In 1901 he severed his connection with this firm and formed a partnership with Whittingham Underbill, and this successful and agreeable association continued until the death of Mr. Underbill in 1903. For two years after the death of his partner, Judge Matthews practiced his profession alone, and then in 1905 formed a partnership with his brother, E. H. Matthews. This partnership was known as Matthews & Matthews, and the firm constituted one of the most formidable associations of its kind in Hamilton county for over fourteen years. Until 1919 this concern was connected with much important litagation but in that year Mr. Matthews was forced to give up his practice to assume the duties of the Judge of Court of Common Pleas, to which he was elected in the fall of 1918, at which time he was the only candidate elected on the Democratic ticket, at the election in Hamilton county. Fraternally, Judge Matthews is a valued member of the Cincinnati Bar Association, and the Cuvier Press Club. He has also been a member of the faculty of the Y. M. C. A. Law School and has been professor of real property, equity and negotiable instruments. On the 28th day of October, 1903, Judge Matthews was united in marriage with Miss Mary L. Dunham, a daughter of Dr. W. H. and Mary (McPherson) Dunham, well-known residents of Cincinnati, Ohio. To this union have been born children as follows: Mary McP., aged sixteen; Sarah Pierce, aged fourteen; William Dunham, aged thirteen; Letitia, aged nine and Stanley, Jr., aged five years. Judge Matthews' thorough integrity has never been questioned and all who have become familiar with his record as common pleas judge have had occasion to remark and admire his positive impartiality. His mental poise is perfect, and while his attitude upon the bench is judicially strict, approaching almost to sternness, among his friends he displays a personality of rare sweetness and charm. In all his career of various activities. Judge Matthews has succeeded along the direct line of his purpose and has impressed his influence on numerous positions and endeavors.

Louis J. Dolle, a leader in the promulgation of corporation and commercial law at Cincinnati, and a citizen of public spirit, worth and high standing in his community, was born at Cincinnati, January 15, 1862, a son of Philip and Philomena (DeBolt) Dolle. The latter was born in Cincinnati, a daughter of Mrs. Elizabeth DeBolt, who was one of the earliest settlers of the community, having taken up her residence here in 1819, when it was still a struggling village. Philip Dolle was born in Alsace-Lorraine, and came to America in 1849, settling in Hamilton county, Ohio. A man of good education, he graduated from the famous Farmers' College, College Hill, Ohio, following which he engaged in teaching school. While thus employed, he studied law and, in 1862, was admitted to the bar, following which he pursued the practice of his calling until his death, June 3, 1884. He was an honor to his profession, his strict integrity and sound ability commending his to the favor of all, while his good citizenship and personal loyalty to friendships won and held for him general confidence. After attending the public schools, Louis J. Dolle was admitted to St. Xavier College, where he pursued a course, then taking up the study of his chosen profession at the Cincinnati Law School, from which he was graduated at the age of twenty years. As he was too young to be admitted to the bar, he waited until his twenty-first birthday, three days after which, January 18, 1883, he was admitted to practice in the state courts of Ohio, and entered enthusiastically upon his professional activities. Mr. Dolle began his life work in the office of his father, under whose preceptorship he made rapid progress, and, at the elder man's demise, succeeded to the large and important corporation and commercial practice. Mr. Dolle has gained an established reputation as one of the most reliable and forceful attorneys practicing at the Cincinnati bar, and his connections with large industries and leading individuals are numerous. For many years he was assisted in his professional business by Walter C. Taylor and James B. O'Donnell, and, in 1911, in recognition of their splendid and faithful services, admitted them to partnership, at that time adopting the style of the firm, Dolle, Taylor & O'Donnell, to which subsequently were admitted Alfred Geisler and John D. Ellis, the firm name now being Dolle, Taylor, O'Donnell & Geisler. Mr. Dolle was married April 26, 1900, at Cincinnati, to Augusta, daughter of William Lodge, senior member of the Lodge & Shipley Machine Tool Company. To this union there have been born four children: William Lodge, Mary Louise, Elizabeth Lodge and Louis J., Jr. Mr. Dolle is a Democrat.

John O. Eckert. For more than twenty years John O. Eckert has been a progressive, and, for much of that period, a prominent factor in the professional and political activities of Cincinnati. His standing as a citizen is firm and broad, and, as a leader of the Republican party, his reputation has extended into state influence, while in the profession of law he has attained a position among the leaders in general practice. Mr. Eckert was born in Scioto county, Ohio, November 27, 1874, and, when a small boy, was brought to Cincinnati, where he attended the public schools. Later he took advantage of the opportunities offered for preferment by attendance at the law school of the Young Men's Christian Association, from which he was graduated in 1899 with the degree of Bachelor of Laws and immediately began practice. He has continued alone in the practice of his calling, and, at this time, has offices in the Second National Bank Building. In spite of the constantly increasing responsibilities of a large and growing practice, Mr. Eckert has found the time and inclination to enter actively into politics, a field in which he has won distinction and success. During the past six years he has been a member of the City Council, representing the Twenty-fourth Ward, which includes his resident community of Westwood. His work in that body has been constructive in its character, and he has been found supporting earnestly all measures which have promised to redound to the benefit of his city and its people. Since the days of his youth, Mr. Eckert has been interested in the work of the Young Men's Christian Association, of which he is still a member, and this interest has taken practical form on more than one occasion. He likewise is an active member of the Cincinnati Chamber of Commerce, is a York Rite Mason and a Shriner, and belongs to the Ohio Bar Association, the Hamilton County Bar Association and the American Bar Association. He was married in 1903 to Luella Klayer, daughter of Dr. Charles F. Klayer, and to them was born one son, David C. Eckert.
