(1829-97) Born in Andover, Mass. Attended Phillips Andover Academy and Harvard. Became one of the most prominent lawyers in Massachusetts. Was President of the Boston Bar Association. Had an ancestor killed at Bunker Hill during the American Revolution, and was a member of the Bunker Hill Monument Association. On May 29, 1897, at a meeting of the Suffolk Bar, resolutions were adopted and addresses were made by distinguished members of the Bar, and by Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr., of the Supreme Court, in tribute to Shattuck, who had died 3 months earlier. Professor James B. Thayer said of him, "All through his life he won what he got by the strong, direct, vigorous efforts of a man who felt himself competent for his task and who had thoroughly prepared himself for it. He was one of the best, kindest and most devoted friends, one of the most faithful and trustworthy legal advisers, one of the most competent, thoroughly prepared advocates, one of the best citizens and one of the most faithful, strong and upright men I have ever known."
