A NEW LAWYER
Bertram Claud Jenkines the latest Addition to the Bar.
Yesterday Bertram Claud Jenkines, brother of Albert G. Jenkines, was admitted to practice at the bar of the Cass circuit court.
This latest addition to the bar register, is a young man who is qualified to lend additional force to the high character of the bar of the Cass circuit court. He is a native Virginian and in the style of his manner before a court is not unlike his brother. His first address to a court was made a couple of weeks ago in a case before Justice Newer, at which time this resemblance in style was noted. Such a similarity, however, is not unnatural. Young Mr. Jenkines is a graduate of the Pacific Methodist college, having taken the degree of B. S. in that institution in '97. Since then he has devoted his attention to the law, reading under a talented preceptor in California, and for the past six months reading very closely in the office of McConnell & Jenkines in this city. Preparatory to taking a final course in the law his admission to the bar as a practitioner is a helpful step, and the course of the young attorney will be watched with interest by the many warm friends whom he has gained during his brief residence in Logansport.
