		Cushing, who had been chief justice of the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court, was Washington's first appointee as an associate justice when the Court set up shop in 1789.
		Cushing was having serious cold feet about serving as chief, partly because of the earlier turmoil.

	George Mason University School of Law: Faculty: Working Paper Detail Information
		On its official roster of current and former members, the Supreme Court does not list William Cushing as the third Chief Justice of the United States, between Chief Justices John Rutledge and Oliver Ellsworth.
		The accepted view is that Cushing — an Associate Justice from 1790 to 1810 — was nominated, confirmed, appointed, and commissioned as Chief Justice in January 1796, but that he declined the job without ever taking the required oaths or taking office.
		It is true that the fine minutes of the Court for those two days do not show Cushing as Chief Justice, but Joseph Story's qualifications to be an Associate Justice suffer from a similar problem: his oath-taking is recorded in the rough minutes but not in the fine minutes for February Term 1810.
