Death of David Graham, Esq.-- Intelligence has been received in New York of the death of David Graham, Esq., an eminent Counsellor <sic> at Law of that city, which took place on the 27th, ult, at Nice, in Italy. Mr. Graham was an able and successful practitioner, and particularly skilled in arguing criminal and other jury cases.
He was one of the commissioners who framed the new code of procedure in New York, and to his judgment, experience and industry much of the merit of that reform is attributed. His arduous labors having impaired his health he was advised to visit a milder climate, but his disease assumed the form of consumption, under which he sunk as above mentioned.
He has left a wife and five children to mourn his death, as well as a large circle of friends who deplore the loss. [Boston Daily Adv]
