MR. DEPEW'S LAW STUDENT.

. p.ruFT1C STORY OF HIS GENEROSITY AND
p1-rI,T-r RIDDLED VETERANS AMBITION.
4 na.hetic story comes to light with a letter sent
% Chauncev NJ Depew few days ago from law
.obool in the West. Mr.. Depew some time ago
received a communication from veteran OF the
Ia,a war in which the writer said he was too young
q man 10 give up and expressed desire TO study
law so that he could be admitted TO the bar. and
going into some new country, build up practice
which would be sufficient TO support himself and
his mother. He added that he had been severely
wounded in the war but that he was still compe-
tent 10 study and move around slowly. Mr.. Depew
investigated the case and found It 10 be worthy
one. He wrote and told the old soldier to go ahead
and send his school bills 10 him as fas, as they
came due From time time the bills came In.
and occasionally the odier-student wrote letter
telling OF his work. The letter telling Of the emo
ing Of the little life chapter came from the presi-
dent OF the Sprague School Of Law in Detroit and
was follows:
One OF the recipients Of your generosity was
Isaac s Rawlings, old soldier In the National
Military Home. Indiana. Mr.. Rawlings was study
ing law with and you were paying his expenses
si4 80 10 his credit, which herewith send to you
by our check which please acknowledge.
+ do not know that IL is necessary for US 10 say
that your Kindness was very much appreciated by
him. Although Mr. Rawlings never realized what
he hoped 10 realize from the study OF the law yet
IL certainly be OF no loss TO you TO have been
Instrumental in giving 10 him IN me last year or
two OF his life much pleasure. ] believe he de-
served well OF his fellow-men. He was very in
dusrious and very ambitious man. and his work
vas done under the most trying circumstances
do not know that any parallel case ever came UNI
der my observation. He was literally riddled WITH
bullets and suffered from half a dozen different
ailments. With IL all he attended to his work at
the Home and was a labOriOus student Your
Kindness to Mr. Rawlings made you good many
friends I'm Detroit among the somewhat extended
circle OF people to whom IL has been pleasure
TO speak Of this very unselfish act OF yours
