    William and Hannah left no descendants. William was Preceptor of the public Grammar School in Roxbury in 1752, and studied law under J. Gridley. In 1755, he commenced practice in Pownalboro, which then comprehended the towns of Dresden and Wiscassett, residing with his brother Charles, and continued his practice there until elevated to the Bench. Of all the Judges and Officers of the Courts in the three counties and of the County Officers he was the solitary lawyer, he stood alone as an educated lawyer in this spacious territory and the first who settled in Maine. He was one of the six lawyers in Maine who were raised to the degree of Barrister. He was for a time Attorney General of Mass.; in 1768, was appointed the first Judge of Probate in Lincoln County and in 1772 made Judge of the Superior Court. At the re-organization of the Superior Court, Mass., 1777, he was appointed Chief Justice of the Court, the first who held the office under the free Government of the Commonwealth and labored with great success in establishing the judicial system on a firm basis. He became Judge of the Supreme Judicial Court, 1782. At the beginning of the Revolution, he alone among the high in office supported the rights of the Revolutionists. He was Vice-President of the Mass. Convention which ratified the U. S. Constitution in 1788. He was the first Chief Justice of the State under this Constitution, and at the organization of the U. S. Government in 1789 he was selected by Washington as an Associate Justice of the U. S. Supreme Court, in which office he eminently shone. While Associate Judge, he was accompanied in his circuit by Mrs. Cushing; he drove a phaeton and a pair of horses ans was followed by his negro man ‘Prince’ on horseback. During the mission of Chief Justice John Jay, Envoy Extraordinary to the Court of Great Britain, negotiating the famous treaty with that Country, Judge Cushing presided, and as Senior Justice administered the oath of office to Washinton at the beginning of his second term as President, 4Mmarch, 1793. In 1794 he was a candidate for Governor of Mass., a rival os Samuel Adams. John Adams said of him: ‘I shall be happier if Cushing succeeds, and the State will be more prudently conducted.’ In 1796, after Judge Jay’s resignation, he was nominated by Washington to the Chief Justice office, and this offer was unanimously confirmed by the Senate, 17 Jan., 1796, and on the evening of the same day was invited to him and said with great impressiveness: ‘The Chief Justice of the United States will please take his seat on my right.’ It is said that this was the first intimation that Cushing had of his selection. Nothing but a confidence in his ability and in his unshaken integrity could have united contending parties on that occasion; but notwithstanding this extraordinary expression of confidence, he declined the office on account of infirm health, but continued on the bench until 1810, when he had prepared an instrument of resignation, but was called to resign life. He was a man of tall and dignified presence, and as he moved along the streets with his cocked hat, bush wig and small clothers, he made an imposing appearance which attracted general attention. He was the last Chief Justice who wore the large wig of the English Judges. As a Judge he was eminently qualified by his learning and not less by his unshaken integrity and deliberate temper. It is said of him in 1801, that he performed the duties of his high office with order and perspicuity and guided the bar with mild, though commanding dignity. In private life he was all that was amiable, always ready to instruct by useful discourse and to make his friends happy with his cheerfulness. He diligently collected works of taste and (if we may judge by the numerous notes written with his own hand in margins) he read with the greatest care. He was a founder and member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. He was a learned theologian, well acquainted with the controversies of the day, and though far from gathering heat in those controversies, was conspicuously on the side of liberal Christianity. As an exemplary Christian, he was irreproachable, and as a public character, he is universally acknowledged to have stood in the first rank of his countrymen.
    A massive granite boulder marks the spot of his burial on ‘Belle House Neck’ in Scituate.
