Another Loss

One of my favorite law professors, John Kidwell, passed away last week. John was a kind man who taught well. I had him only for Remedies and thoroughly enjoyed the class. While I can't remember how the subject came up, at some point during the course we discovered we shared a mutual affection for the works of American short story writer Ambrose Bierce. We also shared an interest in Contracts and legal history and he was one of those who provided "encouraging comments" on an early draft of what was eventually published as the Puritan Revolution and the Law of Contracts. John will be missed.
