Hiram E. Hadley (1854–1929) was a justice of the Washington Supreme Court from 1901 to 1902, and again from 1903 to 1909.
A native of Indiana, Hadley received his early education in Quaker schools, principally at Earlham College, Richmond, Indiana. In 1908, this institution conferred on him the degree of LL. D. In 1877 he graduated at Union College of Law, now Northwestern University Law School, and began active practice of his profession the same year in Bloomington, Illinois. Four years later he located in Rockville, Indiana, and remained there until 1889. The same year he located in Bellingham, Washington, where he practiced until 1897.[1]
It was then that he went on the superior bench. In 1891 he became a member of the firm of Dorr, Hadley & Hadley. This partnership was dissolved when Judge Hadley went on the superior bench, but later the partnership was resumed in Seattle, after Judge Hadley had left the bench. In 1901 Judge Hadley was named for the Supreme bench of Washington and served about eight years, two years of which time he was chief justice.[1]
