The first annual meeting of the Colorado Bar Association in 1898 is documented, featuring addresses from its president and a justice, alongside membership admissions and financial reports. The book details the proceedings of this foundational meeting, including the annual address by President Hugh Butler and an address by Justice W. H. Gabbert. It lists individuals recommended for and elected to membership, along with a detailed treasurer's report of fees received and expenditures from the organization's inception. The text provides a snapshot of the early legal landscape and organizational structure of the Colorado Bar Association.
This volume serves as a primary source document for the early history of the legal profession in Colorado. Its value lies in its direct reporting of organizational activities, membership records, and key addresses from a pivotal moment in the state's legal history. The inclusion of financial reports offers insight into the early operational aspects of the association. As a historical record, it is primarily of interest to legal historians, researchers, and members of the Colorado Bar Association seeking to understand their institution's origins.
