Show Misleading Address. Ralph R. Bradley, a Chicago lawyer, had a client who had some differences with a farmer downstate. Mr. Bradley Brad-ley wrote In the interest of his client on a letterhead showing the address of the lawyer's firm In the Rookery. He received no reply, and was obliged, eventually to make a trlD to close the litigation. Meeting the farmer be asked why he had not shown him the courtesy at least to acknowledge ac-knowledge the receipt of the letter. "Well," said- the downstater, "1 noticed no-ticed 'The Rookery' on your letterhead letter-head and it bothered me. 1 am not an educated man so I had some one look 'rookery' up. He told me It meant a den of thieves, and I concluded not to have anything to do with you." |
