H ~ was a farmer until he decided to prepare himself for the profession of Law. He did not receive J education without a struggle. H i worked his way through hir school and college. As evidence of his ambition, courage and de I termination, he out wsod ■£ ; served as waiter at the college j boarding house. During his sum j me r vacations, in orde r to obtain | money with which to return to j school, he traveled the country, frequently on foot, selling boolis and periodicals. He completed his course at Trinity College with ' honors. -I ! Te World War interrupted hi j college course. He answered the call to arms on September 19, 1917. He left with the first con tingency of soldiers from Cas well County. He entered the military service as a private; he WES honorably discharged after the wa r as a commissioned offi cer. Returning from the army, Mr.! Gwyn resumed his studies r 'graduated from Trinity College 1 | Law School in 1921. He located at Reidaville, where he has since lived. ' Although Mr. Gwyn i a a com- ' I paratively young man, he Panics 1 t | among the leading lawyers of the j State. He has appeared in muc' important litigation. He is known 1 as a rigorous and successful ad vocate,, always true to his client" and fair to his *dv«ttaH*. Incorrect Date Mr. Gwyn has been ahhra r worker in the Democratic Part v. He served two long and difficui terms in the State Senate 1931 and 1933. There he proved be yond question that he was a ser vant of the whole people; that he welfare of the average m; was the end to be sought; that h could not be unduy iaf -ercc-l by corporate powers, that he 1 the courage to light for what he I thought was right. i Mr. Gwyn, just before enter i ing the military service, was mar liied to Miss Janie Johnson. They now have a daughter and two sons a happy family. M; Gwyn works hard, pays his debts r.nd teaches his children to work. 1 We know Mr. Gwyn as a pri vate citizen, as a lawyer, and as a solicitor. We have worked witl. ] him and against him. Our con fidence in him enables us to vouch for him over our signatures. Nor every good lawyer will make - c gocd judge. M. Gwyn has not only the experience necessary, but most of all, a fine judicial tem perament. He can see both sides of a question. We believe he will E be as free from bias and pre - judice as any man we can find. He is a young men on the way up. He has risen by his own strength. He deserves your sup port. It is a pleasure for his as sociates at the Bar to recommend r him to the voters of the District • for the office of Judge of th. - Superior Court. This office is one : of the most important in th : | Sta£e. The person who holds i*. : is in position to perform grer services or perpetrate great I wrongs. He sits jn judgment on the liberties and the pioperty » rights of the people. We feel tha» i Mr. Gwyn will measure up to th responsibilities and 'serve 'he Sta£e with dignity and hono-. This endorsement was g'veri I y ' 20 Democratic lay of the ba' of Rockingham county, and con curred 'n hy 16 county officials 1 and by approximately 50 mem bers of the Democratic executive committee of Rockingham coun -1 ty.
