Life
Born Dr. jur. Friedrich Crome as the son of Friedrich Heinrich Phillipp Crome (son of Ludwig Gottlieb Crome ) from his second marriage to the daughter of the printer's owner Johann Hinrich Borchers , Christiane Catharina Caroline .
He attended the Katharineum until graduation Easter 1841. After having Summa cum laude graduated juridical Universal studies he turned to the legal profession to and received from the Senate of the Free and Hanseatic City of Lübeck by decree of May 10, 1845 its approval.
In 1848 he was a member of the democratic vigilante group.
In 1852 he married Sophie, a daughter of Christian Ferdinand Siemens . She died on December 6, 1922 in Probstdeuben near Leipzig. The marriage resulted in three daughters and three sons.
On June 18, 1856, he was elected Higher Appeal Court Procurator at the Higher Appeal Court of the Four Free Cities . Due to his extensive knowledge in all legal fields and gifted with eminent logic, which he repeatedly brought to bear with concise and astute justifications for litigation disputes, he soon became an adornment of the Lübeck legal profession.
His high reputation, which he enjoyed not only in his hometown, but also in Bremen and Hamburg , is best documented by the fact that not only their most well-known lawyers, but also the public prosecutor 's offices entrusted him with representation before the Higher Appeal Court .
When the Lübeck Lawyers' Association was founded , his colleagues elected him as its chairman. He held this office until shortly before his departure.
In addition to his job, he dealt with questions relating to the constitutional, state and municipal system of Lübeck. He belonged to their citizenship from the beginning. Crome worked as a member of various deputations, board member of Commerz-Bank and as legal consultant of the German life insurance company .
As a part-do manager of the company Gebrüder Borchers he founded the 1872 Lübeck newspaper and was its first editor . It was intended as an evening political supplement to the Lübeck advertisements and was to appear as such for around twenty years when it was incorporated into them. It was so successful that in its second year of existence it became the sole property of the owner of the Borchers brothers .
With the changes brought about by the Reich Justice Laws, the Upper Court and the Upper Court of Appeal ceased to exist in Lübeck in 1879 . Crome decided to work at the Imperial Court in Leipzig . After a few years, Kaiser Wilhelm I awarded him the title of Councilor of Justice . Crome enjoyed that award alone of all the Reichsgericht-attorneys.
The articles he wrote in the six years as editor-in-chief, mostly discussions of political issues of the day, were characterized by a cosmopolitan outlook based on deep historical education. He addressed the affairs of the father-city with both a warm and practical sense. His theater reviews showed a skillful style and an accurate assessment of the actors and poets. It was a particular pleasure for him when he was allowed to devote himself to the review or recitation of a drama by William Shakespeare .
At noon on December 17, 1883, after long and severe suffering, the imperial Justitzrath and lawyer at the Imperial Court died .
He was buried in the family grave of the Burgtorfriedhof .
