Viewing John E. Utley (1890-1956).

John E. Utley (1890-1956).

After graduating from the St. Paul College of Law in 1914, John E. Utley practiced commercial law in Minneapolis for the next forty-one years. He was a sole practitioner, who was very active in Masonic fraternities. He died on January 1, 1956, aged sixty-five. In memorial proceedings for the Hennepin County Bar Associate later that year, a colleague recalled:

"John E. Utley was known as a just and conscientious practitioner of the law, eminently fair in his dealings with both his client and his adversary, and enjoyed the confidence and respect not only of his client but was held in high esteem by the lawyers and judges of his district and state."
