And may there be no sadnoes of farewell When I embark.

During the past eighteen years, he has been engaged in the netivo practice of his profession before the courts of this State, maintaining at all times a high and respectful standing before the Courts . The public would be agreeably surprised upon visiting Mr. Henry’s office at 152% E. ourt St., to find an accomplished steryagrapher and a law libyary consisting of more than 1000 vol-

jnmns.

For tbr four years ending January Ith 1926, Mr, Henry was connected (With-the city legal department, being the first NAgro lawyer to hold such an

bffice in the State.

Mr. Henry smiled when asked why Negroes employ in, such large numbers white lawyers. Then replied, “Our fathers were taught to put their trust In white men. We must learn by better experience that we have more tatereat in each other than any other people can or will have in us.” Notwithstanding, Mr. Henry s pracMce and busy life, he is ever ready to give the humblest person, who calls upon him the same careful attention.
