Nonagenarian Admitted to Practice Before the Court


Dr. Joseph H. Shull, a 95-year-old practicing lawyer and physician, is believed to be the oldest man admitted to the Supreme Court Bar. Dr. Shull previously served two terms in the Pennsylvania Senate and one term in the U.S. House of Representatives. A native of Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania, he was admitted to the Supreme Court Bar along with his son, Judge Samuel E. Shull, on May 22, 1944. Dr. Shull died in August 1944. Neither father nor son argued a case before the Court.
