Geo. S. Grimes, Veteran Lawyer, Dies in Court

George S. Grimes, 82, veteran of 60 years of practicing law in Minneapolis, collapsed and died during arguments in a civil case before District Judge Paul S. Carroll late Tuesday.

Court attaches said Mr. Grimes had boasted of his good health minutes before he began arguing a motion before Carroll. He was stricken suddenly, fell to the floor and died in a few minutes before arrival of an ambulance.

Former president of the Hennepin County Bar association, Mr. Grimes was graduated from University of Minnesota and University of Michigan law school. He was a member of a pioneer family which homesteaded a section of St. Louis Park and Morningside. Grimes avenue was named after his family.

Surviving him, besides his wife, are three daughters, Mrs. Jack Manders, wife of the former Gopher football star; Mrs. Ernest Lindley, wife of the Star Journal columnist; and Dr. Marian Grimes, a Minneapolis physician and one son, John Alden Grimes.
