Tom Lea came to FL Paso 16 years
ago. He had received a degree in law
at the Kansas City School of Law,
graduating in 1899. The same year he
left his home in Independence, Mo, ana
came to FL Paso.
Jobs We're scarce in those days"
said Mr.. Lea in speaking of his arrival
here THE town was just beginning
to really wake up and. like fast grow
over developed in some lines and un-
der developed in others. I realized
that this was the best town in the state
and thai it would grow better every
day I decided to stick. FL Paso has
been my home since the day I arrived
here"
Went to Work in Lumber Yard.
The time not appearing suspicious
for beginning his law practice, Mr..
Lea secured employment with a coal
and wood yard. He kept this position
for about three years until. in the
latter part of 1903, he took up the prac-
tice of law.
Lea formed partnership with judge
Dan Jackson, under the firm name of
Jackson d Lea. This firm continued
until 1910, when Lea formed a partner
ship with Judge NJ. Nagle. Later Mr..
Lea entered an independent practice.
At the first Of the present year he
became associated with r. z. Thoma-
son and john c.. McGrady
But two political offices have been
held by Mr.. Lea. He served two terms,
from 1905 to 1903, as judge of the cor
poratiOn court and, in 1912, was elected
Democratic county chairman for a two
year term.
He is an Elk and Il Mason, and be-
longs to several other lodges also. He
has held several positions Of honor in
the Masonic lodge.
