W. E. Haymond

Of the numerous attorneys comprising the Braxton county bar, many men of such high personal character and such larch legal attainments that they would grace the bench, or would be considered qualified to handle the litigation of the most complicated questions coming before even the United States Supreme Court. Almost without exception those men who have won distinction in their profession are country born and bred, amid the green fields, close to the inspiration of the great woods, which Bryant says were "God's first temples;" breathing air as pure as the skies are blue.

Holding a deserved position of prominence among their number is W. E. Haymond, who, aside from the practice of his profession has found time to associate himself with every public movement looking to advance Sutton's Material interests. Mr. Haymond was born in Braxton county, and for the past 20 years has resided in Sutton. He studied law in Weston, Lewis county, being admitted to the bar at this place, ... His practice is a general one, embracing Federal, State, and County cases before all the courts. As prosecuting attorney, he served this county two consecutive terms from 1885 to 1893, and several times has been an efficient member of the Town Council. Cases in Equity, especially those involving titles, have offered him the most congenial field, for the exerciser of his talents, and it is in this direction that he has been so conspicuously successful. Criminal law, while admitting of greater opportunity for the attraction of public attention, has not appealed to his inclination as effectively as the deeper questions involved in the Civil code. Mr. Haymond has always been a hard student, and possesses one of the finest law libraries in this section of the state. He is a member of the Masonic order, and a citizen to whom the interests of his home town are paramount at all times.
