Archer Martin Played His Part In Growth Of West When the late Hon. Archer Martin, who is dead in Victoria, retired May 6, 1940, as Chief Justice of the British Columbia Court of Appeal, he to.d a banquet in his honor: "It seems that I am looked upon as an institution as a link with the past." For 42 years he was a member of the British Columbia bench. He letiretf on his 75th birthday in accordance with his oft-expressed belief that all Judges should give up their duties when they reached that age. j One of the men who played an i active part in the growth of the Canadian West, Archer Martin was bom in Hamilton, Ont., May ;6, 1865. He was called to the bar of Manitoba in 1837 and to the bar of British Coluwo.a in 1894. : In the g:owng Pacific Coast province he rapidly made his mark. He was appointed a puisne judge of the Supreme Court of British Columbia wlun he was 33 years old one of the youngest men ever elevated to the bench In Canada. . The following year Mr. Martin was made deputy judge in Admiralty for British Columbia and three years later jud?e in Admiralty. As head of the latter he preserved the traditional wig that was one of the symbols of office abolished In other Western Canada courts many years previously. ! Upon the creation of the appellate division of the British Col- . umbia Supreme Court In 1909 he was appointed to serve under Chief Justice J. A. Macdonald, whom he succeeded as chief justice In 1937. 1 Archer Martin was educated at Trinity College ochool, Port Hope, Ontario, and at Ghent, Belgium. In 1889 he married Emily Mary, daughter of John Breakcn-ridge Read, barrister-at-law . of Toronto. They had two sons, Car-ew, a Victoria barrister,, and D'Arcy, an employee of the British Columbia government. Earlier Days The chief Justice's estate, "Bal-linahinch," near Victoria, was named after the residence in Gal-way County, Ireland, of his fam ous K'cui-graiiuiuiner, oioneij Richard (Humanity) Martin, one1 of the founders of the Royal So ciety for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. Mr. Martin's earliest days in British Columbia were spent on ' Vancouver Island, where before his appointment to the supreme court he acted as counsel for the Dominion government and representative of the minister of Justice. Subsequently his duties took him to nearly every part of the province. He was acquainted in- timately with the mining and ranching Cariboo district and in ' 1900 acted as a special commls-' sloner to settle mining disputes in Jhe Porcupine district of British uojumoia arising out of the British-, United States treaty on the Cana-1 dian-Alaskan boundary. . , When he retired as chief Jus- j tice of the appeal court he prom-jlsed friends to write a book of j reminiscences dealing with early ,days in the province. He had previously written several books, most ,of them dealing with le?al matters, including "The Hudson's Bay Company's Land Tenures, Chart 'of the Judges of Vancouver Island and British Columbia," and "Mar- tin's Mining and Water Cases." He :also pulblished "The Genealogy of, Martin of Ballinahinch Castle." In his 42 years on the British I ! Columbia bench Mr. Martin never imissed a day from court with the, 1 exception of one week when hej was confined to his home with a sprained ankle. His perpetual good, health enabled him to enjoy swim ming and golf and to take an active interest In gardening. If you want something, advertise for It.
