        The subject of this sketch is a native of Santa Cruz, and is one of its 
representative young business men. He was born in 1862, and was educated in the 
public schools of this city. Subsequently he studied law in his father's office, 
and was admitted to the bar in 1886. He was elected police judge the same year. 
He was married to Miss Marie S. Miller, of Santa Cruz, but his wife 
unfortunately died the next year.
        Since the expiration of this term of judge of the police court, Mr. 
Skirm has devoted himself to the business of abstracting and dealing in real 
estate.
