Abstract
Horace Binney was the leading lawyer of Philadelphia during the first three-quarters of the nineteenth century. As a practitioner before the State and Federal Courts, including the case of Vidal v. Girard’s Executors (the Girard Will Case) in the U.S. Supreme Court (1844), and for his numerous civic activities and legal writings, Binney was one of the most accomplished lawyers that ever graced the Philadelphia bar. This article will review his life and works.
