The Law Firm That Was: Struve, Haines & Leary Dissolves After Twelve Years

The well known and popular law firm of Struve, Haines & Leary was dissolved yesterday by mutual consent. Mr. Leary retiring therefrom. The business will be conducted hereafter by Messrs. Haines & Struve, who are authorized to collect all outstanding accounts due, and pay all bills against the late firm.

For twelve years Mr. Leary has been constantly engaged in the practice of law, not so much before the Courts himself as in the preparation of cases and making out papers in his office, as well as carrying on the business management of the firm to which he belonged. Being of an enterprising and speculative turn of mind he has amassed considerable property, and his object in retiring from the law is to afford him more time to handle his property and carry forward some extensive undertakings he has on hand.

The firm of Struve, Haines & Leary has enjoyed a large and lucrative law practice, second to none in Washington Territory, and this business will doubtless be continued and extended to the new firm. Messrs Struve & Haines are both able men, standing high in the community as prominent members of the bar of Washington Territory. They will occupy the same office in the Post Building as heretofore, and we wish them success.
