First Colored Woman Lawyer

TOPEKA, KAs., Sept. IA.
Special to the Chicago Times
Herald. Miss Lutte A Lyttle is the
first colored lady every admitted to
the bar. She is 20 years old, a
native of Tennessee. Some years
ago her father moved to Kansas
where he acquired fortune and
Influence in this community, In
1902 he secured for his daughter the
position Of engrossing clerk of the
Kansas Assembly. This work gave
her a taste for career higher and
wider than domesticity; and soon
afterward She went to Tennesse and
entered the Nashville Central Col
lege where she completed the full
law course. A diploma from that
institution, together with a certif-
cate Of good moral character from
some lawyer is sufficient to admit
you in any bar in the state.
She, after being admitted to the
Tennessee bar was also admitted tc
the Kansas bar.
