JUDGE MARK A. FULLERTON, of the Washington State Supreme Court, is one of the
most distinguished jurists in the Northwest, a man of exceptionally high
qualifications for the position he holds.  Judge Fullerton is a native of
Oregon where he was born in 1858.  He received his educational training in
Williamette University, and in 1883 was admitted to the bar.  In 1899 he went
on the Washington State Supreme bench and since then has remained a member of
that body.  During the many years that Judge Fullerton has been on that bench
many of the most important matters in the history of the state have come
before him for disposition, and in each instance he has acted with promptness
and decision.  I do not believe there has ever been a man on the state supreme
bench his superior.  The lessons of his youth and the principles which he
early indorsed, he has followed with increasing determination and enthusiasm,
and thereby won a high place in his profession and among his fellow citizens.
With it all he is one of the most modest men in the Northwest, and it is only
from his friends and associates, who know his life history, that one learns 
the points which have been the salient features ih[sic] his career.  No man 
ever occuppied the position held by Judge Fullerton who has been held in 
higher esteem than the present incumbent, and some of the grestest tributes I 
have ever heard one man pay to another, I have heard from Washington lawyers 
in speaking of the splendid qualifications of this distinguished lawyer and
jurist.
