  John Hessin Clarke - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
John Hessin Clarke (September 18, 1857 – March 22, 1945) was an American lawyer and judge who served as an Associate Justice of the United States Supreme Court from 1916 to 1922.
Clarke was an Ohio native (born in New Lisbon) who gained a reputation as an able trial lawyer in Youngstown, and then in Cleveland representing corporate and railroad interests.
In 1914, Clarke was appointed to the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Ohio by President Woodrow Wilson, who then elevated Clarke to the Supreme Court two years later after Charles Evans Hughes resigned to accept the Republican nomination for President.

John Hessin Clarke's progressive sympathies were manifested in a more reflexive and less craftsmanlike jurisprudence than that of Brandeis.
Clarke was never entirely happy on the Supreme Court, reacting critically to many of its procedures, not adjusting easily to its ways, and resigning at age sixty-five, after serving less than six years.
John Hessin Clarke, William R. Day and Joseph McKenna are reasonably well-served by the biographies written by Hoyt Landon Warner, Joseph E. McLean and Brother Matthew McDevitt.
