Following service in the Navy in World War II,\n he received his A.B. from the University of Richmond\n in 1948 and his J.D. from the University of Virginia Law\n School in 1950. Butler married June Nolde in 1950. This union\n produced four sons: Manley, Henry, James and Marshall.","Butler served as the City of Roanoke Representative in\n 1960-1961. In 1962 he was elected to the Virginia House of\n Delegates. He was elected Minority Leader in 1966, a position\n he held until 1972 when he was elected to the 92nd U.S.\n Congress from the 6th District of Virginia. Butler served the\n 6th District for a decade. While serving on the Judiciary\n Committee, Butler participated in the impeachment action\n against President Richard M. Nixon during the summer of 1974.\n In the aftermath of Nixon's resignation, Butler was involved\n in the confirmation hearings of Gerald R. Ford and Nelson\n Rockefeller to serve as President and Vice President\n respectively. Butler was a principal architect of the\n Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1978. He was also a member of the\n Committee on Government Operations.
