Whereas, Chief Justice Littlejohn was married to the former Inell Smith who died July 16, 1962; and

Whereas, he served his country with great valor during World War II; and

Whereas, Chief Justice Littlejohn served as a member of the South Carolina House of Representatives from 1937 to 1943 and from 1947 to 1949, and as Speaker of the House of Representatives from 1947 to 1949; and
