Thomas Parker Proctor '54, a prominent member of the Suffolk bar, died suddenly yesterday morning at his house in Jamaica Plain.
Mr. Proctor was born in Chelmsford, Mass., June 27, 1831. He was prepared for college at Phillips Andover Academy, entered Harvard, and was graduated in the class of 1854. Two years later, in 1856, he graduated from the law department of the University. He had also studied in the office of Charles Tracy of New York, and was admitted to the bar in that city in 1854, but continued his studies until his graduation from the Law School. He then began practice in Boston in the office of Harvey Jewell. In 1862 Hon. William W. Warren, late member of Congress, became his partner, and the association continued until Mr. Warren's death in 1880. For four years after, Henry R. Brigham was associated with him, and this partnership continued until the death of Mr. Brigham. Since 1888 he had had as partners, Eugene Tappan and Bentley W. Warren, son of his former partner. His practice had been general in character, but he had large and valuable trusts in his charge.
