Her main occupation while she lived in Cordova was as the law partner of Walter Hartman Hodge. The justice of the peace/commissioner reference may not fully explain things; it could very well be a case of using two different terms to refer to the same job position. "Commissioner" refers to U.S. Commissioner, a position now known as a United States magistrate judge. The United States territorial court was the only court established for Alaska for most of its pre-statehood existence. Only four judges served all of Alaska, which remained that way from 1909 until the dissolution of the territorial courts in early 1960. U.S. Commissioners were used extensively to fill gaps (during her time in Cordova, the judge serving that area, which at the time was Anthony Dimond, was based in Anchorage), but their number and duties may have been similarly limited. Like with rural magistrates in the current state court system, it's likely that only a small handful of commissioners held full time positions in that job. Sometime in the latter territorial era, legislation was passed allowing for a limited municipal court system. The judges in these positions were often referred to as police judges or magistrates. It was an entirely different deal, except the duties would have been similar to that of a U.S. Commissioner. Hope that clears things up.
