Remand q Judge JOSEPH 3. David

Remarks Of Judge Joseph B. David
Dear Friends:
1T is with heavy heart that ] am
here this evening to join with you in
saying word in memory Of our de-
parted friend. You know the poet
says, Lives Of great men all remind
lis, we can make our lives sublime,
and departing leaves behind US, foot
prints on the sands Of time This
mans life is typical Of those lines Of
the poet. He was one OF the greatest
men of his time. | knew him first as
lawyer and in the court over which
! presided for more than years, and
am satisfied that this man was a
lawyer in the true sense Of the word
found that he was man not only
of great legal ability; not only Of I'M
questionable integrity. but a man Of
action, who didn't only counsel but
acted when called upon to preform
the simplest task He stood for what
he considered his legal right and
fought the best he knew how I know
that he had the respect Of the Judges
before whom he appeared. He didn't
pay any attention to color. race or
creed, and Il think that if the people
Of this community knew him as
know of his many fine qualities, and
if they knew he represented the high
est type Of his people, and if there
were many others like him, soon race
hatred, false pride and intolerance
would disappear. For after all it is
not the skin or creed one possesses
that makes the man, it is the heart
and the conscience.
Il regard this man as one Of my

greatest friends and Chicago is poorer
this moment, in the passing away Of
Mr.. Mollison.
81 knew him as father, knew him
as a husband. / knew that at the fire
side Of his home, he enjoyed the re-
spect and reverence Of his family as
was accorded him by the people Of
this city
IF there is a supreme being, and l
believe there is, certainly Mr.. Molli-
son viii receive the tribute for work
done, as each Of us is justly entitled"
Many were the flowers sent by his
friends and admirers, showing how
highly he was esteemed by the people
Of Chicago.
The remains were laid to rest in
Lincoln cemetery. Mr.. Mollison will
be long remembered by all who knew
him we'll, though it is sad to give up
a treasure that we all SO dearly love.
Time they say, heals all wounds. but
it can never obliterate memory"

TO THE MANY READERS OF
THE BROAD AK

Chicago, June IL, l924-Did you
read a copy of The Broad Ak, Of the
issue of May 81, 1924? If you did, l
know that you noted the article by
Ex-senator James Hamilton Lewis,
In the Ages of the Past the Colored
Races Served as the Pioneers, or the
Torch Bearers, in Establishing Civil
ization Throughout the Ancient East
ern World"
If you did not read it, you missed
rare treat and my advice to you is
that it is still not too late to secure a
copy of that issue Of The Broad AK
and read for yourself that wonderful
article written by that eloquent man,
Hon. James Hamilton Lewis, States
man, Scholar and Diplomat.
This article should be very encour-
aging and is encouraging and inspir-
ing to our group emanating from the
source it did. It has heretofore been
the presumption Of some Of our peo-
pie that the Democratic Party or men
who were leaders and sponsors for
the policy Of the Democratic Party
were not friendly toward Us. think
that the careful reading Of this article
by any fair minded man or woman
will serve to eliminate to a great ex-
tent that erroneous idea, for we all
know that Hon James Hamilton
Lewis is a Democrat, served as the
Democratic Senator from the State oil
Illinois but this wonderful article
shows that he is our friend, that he is
unbiased and unprejudiced and is will
ing to give to every man his just dues

Attorney AT Law

one Of the prominent leaders Of the
Colored race IN America.
He has become one Of the editorial
writer's on the Tribune Of Los An
geles, Cal, which is one Of the lead
ing daily newspapers in that city,
and that newspaper selected him,
owing to his great writing ability to
represent it at the Republican Nation
al Convention, at Cleveland, Ohio, and
at the Democratic National Conven-
ton, at New York City, June "a.
It is the first time that any daily
newspaper conducted BY the Whites
in this country, has chosen a Colored
man, to represent it, in that capacity
Mr.. Samuel Thompson, his brother,

tablishing Civilization Throughout the
Ancient Eastern World for Many
Ages"
This article is very inspiring and
one which proves to the present gem
Grafton the part which our people have
played in the development Of our
modern civilization and the admission
from 50 great a statesman as the
writer is worthy Of recognition BY
every fair minded liberty loving per-
son who perchance has read it.
l wish that every man Of note liv-
ing south Of the Mason and Dixon line
where the Honorable James Hamilton
Lewis, ex-senator Of Illinois, halls
from, as well as northern, could read
with understanding this valuable ar
ticle with such far reaching and con-
vincing information.

these sharks, through his agents or
runners, who belonged to the same
church that this poor woman did,
made an appeal to her through her
race pride and prejudice to other races,
telling her that she should withdraw
this money from the bank which
was only paying her three per cent
interest and let group Of her own
people have this money and they
would invest it in home for her and
would pay her eight per cent on the
money, and that she might withdraw
It at anytime she saw fit; but, alas, as
soon as they had gotten her $500 she
could never again get in touch with
them in anyway. This was more than
two years ago. The woman, after
using every other means to her
knowledge to get back her money,
finally came to me. The poor woman

Chicago. June 10.
Mr.. Julius F. Taylor.
Editor, The Broad AK.
With the greatest Of pleasure, / de-
sire to express my highest apprecia-
ton Of the scholarly contribution Of
Hon. James Hamilton Lewis to The
Broad AK, in its issue Of May 3lst,
1924. ! beg leave to say that always
pause to enjoy any deliverance from
tongue or pen Of the popular ex-sen-
ator.
This contribution is worthy OF a
unique place among the rare collec-
tons Of any library, public or private.
First, because Of its rare merit as an
historic document, available at any
time to protect the Negro against ma
lignant attacks of his unlettered en-
emies.
Second, because Of its further value
as the result Of careful, diligent re-
search among the archives Of ancient
Greece, Turkey, Egypt and other civ
ilizations, by a highly disciplined
mind anxious to induce reluctant
America to pay the further debt it
owes its emancipated slaves as they
rise into liberty.
Third, because this contribution
breathes in every line the rare cour-
age of its author, daring to show his
hand" proudly grasping such for
midable weapon of restrrected glory
of an oppressed race.

orable Willis E. Mollison, his family
has lost an affectionate husband; a
loving father, and a devoted grand
father, leaving a void that can never
be filed, therefore
BE IT RESOLVED, by the Cook
County Bar Association that it tender
to his bereaved family this memorial
Of its grief, assuring each member
thereof its profound sorrow and last
ing regret at his taking off and their
great affection.
AND BE 1T FURTHER RE
SOLVED, that the President Of the
Cook County Bar Association trans
NIT an engrossed copy of these Reso-
lutions to the widow, Mrs. Mollison
and assure her of its profound sym
pathy in her deep personal affection
and loss, and further, it tenders its
sincere coincidence in this, her meal
culable bereavement.
AND BE 1T FURTHER RE
SOLVED, that these resolutions Be
spread upon the record Of the Cook
County Bar Association and pre-
served in the archives thereof.

must put up with him (the real estate
broker) $500 as earnest money to bind
the deal. Our good friend in his
eagerness to own a home placed this
money with this real estate shark who
turned out to be not even a licensed
real estate broker. This was nearly
two months ago and our home seeker
has not as yet secured the home
neither has he gotten back his $780,
although the machinery Of the States
Attorneys office is in motion for the
purpose Of returning to this home
seeker his $500 or to crush this would
be real estate broker. This man did
not even know the owner OF this
piece of property, never had any
authority from the owner to sell this
said piece of property, therefore It
must have been in the beginning his
intention to swindle.
These cases are only two Of the
many such fraudulent transactions that
have come to my notice recently, and
my advice to the general public and
the would-be-home seekers Is not to
take the word Of anyone Of these men
purporting to be real estate dealers
without first consulting some lawyer
and have the matter looked into tor
him.
