	DANIEL KELLEHER, one of the active and able young lawyers of the Seattle
bar, was born on a farm near Middleborough, Massachusetts, February 5, 1864. In
early life young Kelleher learned to appreciate the advantages of an education,
and, to prepare himself for his professional career, after passing through the
public and high school at Bridgewater. Massachusetts, he entered Harvard
College, graduating at that institution in 1885, with high honors. He then went
to Syracuse, New York, as private tutor in fitting young men for entrance to
Harvard College, and at the same time followed a line of legal study in the
office of Tracy, McLennan & Ayling. Mr. Kelleher was duly admitted to practice
in the courts of New York State, and was then engaged in his profession at
Syracuse until in March, 1890.
	In that year he came to Seattle, Washington, and immediately began practice
with G. Meade Emory, subsequently organizing the law firm of Bausman, Kelleher &
Emory, which is well and favorably known through the Northwest. Mr. Kelleher is
a careful observer and a close student, and for this reason is rapidly forging
to the front in his profession, and has already built up a very lucrative
practice. While devoted to his profession, he also takes an active interest in
Democratic politics of the State. In the fall of 1892 he was honored with the
nomination for Superior Judge of King county. The county is decidedly
Republican, but Mr. Kelleher received the vote of his party, and was also
complimented by many votes from his Republican friends, though the total number
was insufficient to elect him. Mr. Kelleher is unmarried, and is a member of no
orders, but is following a line of thought, study and research, which, will
ultimately place him in the front rank in his profession.
