Justice Johnson is a former member of the Board and a former Judge of Su- perior Court. His retirement, due to ill health is universally regretted by the Bar of our State. His presence on the bench will be sorely missed. We are hope- ful that his health will permit him to continue for many years to be a wise counselor with the intense human touch which has so justly earned for him the affection of the Bar, the Courts and the people of the state. Judge Clifton L. Moore of Burgaw, resident Judge of the 5th Judicial Dis- trict has been appointed Associate Jus- tice of the Supreme Court replacing Associate Justice Jeff D. Johnson, Jr., retired on the 31st day of January. Jus- tice Moore took his oath on February 2, 1959.
