CAPT. Fl. s. NORTON, GARY.
l was greatly shocked this morn
ing to learn of the death of Judge
Hembroff.
When l came to Indiana four
years ago, with several Gary pio-
neers. I lived at the South Bay ho-
tel, Indiana Harbor, for few
months. l met the Judge for the
first time then. I remmember that
he went out of his way to make it
pleasant for the Gary colony
Judge Hembroff was one of the
strong men of the Calumet district
He was above petty jealousies. He
was big enough to realize that the
cities of northern Lake county have
many common interests. Gary has
lost a friend. His untimely death
will not only be felt in Indiana Har-
Dor and in Gary, Lake county can Ill
afford to lose him at this time
