DAVID KRAUSE, b. November 2, 1800, in Lebanon, Pa.; d. June 13, 1871, in Norristown, Pa. He was educated under Rev. Mr. Ernst, of the Lutheran church at Lebanon, and subsequently studied law with Hon. Jonathan Walker, of Pittsburgh, and there admitted to the bar. He returned to Lebanon and began practice. He went to Harrisburg as the private secretary of Governor Shulze, and was admitted to the Dauphin courts, August 15, 1825. He was appointed Deputy Attorney General in August, 1826, and reappointed in 1829. From 1825 to 1826, with Gen. Simon Cameron, he published and edited the Pennsylvania Intelligence. He was elected a member of the House of Representatives in 1835 and 1836. On the election of Governor Porter, in 1839, he took editorial charge of the Slate Journal, which he conducted with much ability. In January 1845, a vacancy occurring in the Montgomery and Bucks county judicial district, Mr. Krause was appointed to that bench. He filled the position acceptably and honorably, but, in 1851, when the judiciary became elective, he positively declined the office. He then retired to private life. In 1862, and again in 1863, upon the invasion of Pennsylvania by the Confederates, he volunteered as a private soldier in the Pennsylvania militia, although then in the sixty-third year of his age. Judge Krause m., in September, 1826, CATHARINE ORR, of Philadelphia; b. September, 1800; d. December, 1875, at Norristown, Pa.
