"Oration Pronounced at the Funeral of George Wythe" is a newspaper account of the speech delivered by William Munford, George Wythe's friend and former student, at Wythe's state funeral in the Capitol building in Richmond, Virginia, at 4:00 p.m. on Monday, June 9th, 1806. It originally appeared in the Richmond Enquirer in two parts published a week apart on June 13th and 17th, and was subsequently republished in several newspapers including the Raleigh Register and North-Carolina State Gazette.
The law library at the College of William & Mary's Marshall-Wythe School of Law was rededicated in 2006 as The Wolf Law Library. The current facility was built in 1980, but the library was expanded and completely renovated in 2005-2007 to include space for over 400,000 volumes, seating for more than 500, 12 group study rooms, and the Nicholas J. St. George Rare Book Room, where some of the library's materials relating to John Marshall and George Wythe are on display. The library's mission includes providing access to law and law-related resources, as well as a wide range of services that support the law school curriculum and programs, promoting the advancement of legal scholarship, and fulfilling the information needs of students, faculty, and the local legal community.
