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.
Miss Dorothy Turner, organist of
Holy Trinity, will play.
