Illinois Supreme Court June 16, 1888 (County of Cook v. Sennott)

Mr. Justice Scott

delivered the opinion of the Court:

Respondent, Thomas W. Sennott, is clerk of the Probate Court of Cook county, which court, it is alleged, is a “court of record.” It seems he was elected and entered upon the duties of such office on the first Monday of December, 1886, for a term of four years.
