Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cincinnati, the Queen City, 1788-1912, Vol. 4 The death of Judge Longworth occurred January 18, 1890, when he was in the forty-sixth year of his age. Few men of his years attain so distinguished a position at the bar. He was fearless in attack because his position was based upon a comprehensive knowledge of the law, and a remarkable discernment enabled him to readily understand the weak points in an adversary's cause. However, he was not learned in the law alone. He possessed mechanical skill and was equally proficient in music. Few have equal knowledge of the writings of standard authors and his love of poetry was a paramount force in his life. His acquaintance with the classics was most wide and his translation of Electra, while preserving the pith of the original, makes Greek poetry readable even in the English language.
