As Boy, Hourigan Worked On Hildebrant Farm Here Many citizens: of the Dallas sec- tion are viewing the candidacy of Attorney Hourigan for delegate to the Republican National Convention in the light of a home-town candi- dacy, since Mr. Hourigan is remem- bered favorably for his acquain- tance, activity and residence in and about Dallas. As a boy, he worked many sum- mers on the farm of John A. Hilde- brant and later his family occupied the home of Jane Hildebrant in Dallas Borough. At the present time he maintains and is devoted to his summer residence at Harvey's ‘Lake. Mr. Hourigan has enjoyed a long and successful career at the Luzerne County Bar, having frequently ap- peared in the highest courts. Most recently he was signally honored by the Supreme Court of Pennsyl- vania by appointment to the State Procedural Rules Committee. In that instance the Legislature waived its right to make rules a practice governing our courts and vested that power with the Supreme Court. This PAGE FIVE body, the highest in the State, chose 12 outstanding lawyers of the State to study and draft rules, which were later promulgated ‘by the court. The position of Mr. Hourigan in the profession was illustrated in this appointment when he was chosen on that committee to repre- sent the bars of Northeastern Penn- sylvania. Subsequently he was again ap- pointed by the same court to an- other committee, drafting the Equity Rules for our courts. This is the first time in his long career that Mr. Hourigan has permitted his name to appear on a ballot, al- though he has been otherwise al- ways in the van of civic and public- spirited movements. Musical Program Sunday St. Paul’s Lutheran Church will present a musical program in the church on Sunday evening at 7:30 ‘by the Senior Choir of Holy Trinity Lutheran Church of Kingston, under the direction of Mrs. Peter Broadt.
