A statue of Rufus Choate stands in the John Adams Courthouse in Boston, Massachusetts, United States.
The statue was designed by Daniel Chester French and honors Choate, a lawyer and politician from Massachusetts.
[1] When George B. Hyde, a schoolmaster from Boston, died in the late 1800s, he left in his will a bequest of money for the erection of a statue honoring Choate.
The ceremony began with an address by Lewis S. Dabney, president of the Boston Bar Association.
[4] The statue is made of bronze and depicts a standing Choate holding papers in his left hand and grabbing his lapel with his right.
