WILLIAM R. POMERENE.
To know the law indicates close study and retentive memory; to apply it correctly indicates careful analysis, inductive rea.soning and logical sequences. The trend of mind in the Pomerene family is particularly judicial and the law has found worthy exponents in Judge Julius Pomerene and his two sons William R. and Frank E., the former senior partner of the pre.ent law firm of Pomerene & Pomerene and the immediate subject of this article. He was born in Coshocton, March 19, 1864, and after passing through the consecutive grades in the public schools was graduated from the high school in the class of 1879. His more specifically literary education was pursued in Wooster College, where he spent two years, and in the Ohio State I'university at Columbus. His preliminary law reading was done under the direction of his father and a year later he entered the law school of Cincinnati College, from which he was graduated in 1886. Following his admission to the bar the same year he joined his father in a partnership which was continued until Judge Pomerene's elevation to the circuit court bench. William R. Pomerene then practiced alone until 1895, when he was joined by his brother under the present firm style of Pomerene & Pomerene. He send for two terms as prosecuting attorney for the county but otherwise has never sought nor desired political preferment, for the demands of a growing private practice leave him little time for aught else.
Mr. Pomerene was married December 22, 1887, at Marietta, Ohio, to Annie L. Warner, a daughter of General A. J. Warner, and has two children: Warner Merritt, born May 5, 1893; and Walter Holmes, born January 21, 1895. Mr. and Mrs. Pomerene occupy an enviable position in social circles, for they have many friends among Coshocton's best people. Cordial in address, genial in manner and entertaining true appreciation for all that is worth while in life, Mr. Pomerene is quick to appreciate the good points in others, while his own salient characteristics have made him popular with his fellow townsmen.
