Gilford Butler of South Thomaston, a long-time Democrat and former State Senator from Knox County, was President and remained in that office for several years.

Guilford Butler was a kindly man and most considerate of young, new members like myself. He would call on a long-time lawyer, for some oratory then on the newest member and then introduce the presiding justice who was always helpful in providing advice about current issues and procedure.
