Early life and education

Will P. Brady was born on 12 February 1876 in Austin, Texas.[1] His parents, James and Agnes Brady,[2] were early settlers of the city, having arrived five years earlier.[3][4] Will Brady was one of five children; his siblings were John W., David John, Agnes,[5][6] and Helen Brady.[4][7][8] He was also the uncle of, among others, the philologist Caroline Brady.[9] Brady's brother John W. was also a lawyer and a judge, whose successful career was ended by a three-year prison sentence for murder; the prosecution had sought the death penalty.[7][10]

Brady was raised in Austin and attended the public schools there.[11] He entered the University of Texas, graduating from the college of arts in 1894.[12][13]

Career

Education

Brady began teaching in Sprinkle, Texas, around 1897,[11][14][15][16] where he led the country school.[17][18][19] Brady was involved with the Travis County Teachers' association while a teacher.[20][21] At different gatherings of the association he co-led discussions of a new text book law and of a paper entitled "School Law",[22][23] and spoke on "Needed Changes in the School Law",[24] "Truth v. Fiction in the School Reader",[25] "How to Teach Texas History",[26] and "Professional Courtesy".[27] He also helped organize a circulating library intended to supply the teachers in the county with professional books,[28] and in 1900 taught physical geography at the Elgin summer normal.[29]

In 1900, his third year at Sprinkle, Brady ran for the position of Travis County school superintendent.[11][30][note 1] An endorsement signed by three Sprinkle residents—W. B. Barr, T. J. Rowzee, and F. T. Maxwell—declared that Brady "is a young man, well educated, full of ambition, and will strive hard to build up a reputation for himself".[11] Brady ultimately won the November election uncontested;[33] he was sworn in to begin his two-year term on 1 December.[34] Days before the election, Brady submitted an affidavit, read at a political gathering, accusing a district judge, Frank G. Morris, of summoning a grand jury to investigate a political opponent.[35][36] The following year Brady took a three-week vacation that included stops in Buffalo and New York City.[37]

As superintendent, Brady's duties included reviewing transfers and expulsions of students.[38][39] He was also involved in the hiring of instructors.[40] This included teaching at summer normals in 1901,[41][42] 1903,[43] and 1904,[44][45] grading papers from examinations for teachers' certificates,[46] and even selecting instructors for the newly formed Girls' Industrial College in Denton.[47][48] Brady remained involved in the teachers' association, at times organizing its meetings,[49][50] and giving talks on current events.[51][52] He attended meetings of the Texas State Teachers Association as well,[53][54] including one at which he co-led discussion of a paper titled "Should Schools with One Teacher be Limited as to Number of Grades?"[55]

Brady ran for a second term in 1902. Penning a letter in the Austin Daily Statesman in support of his candidacy, Brady wrote that "[t]he city people pay very little attention to the county superintendent because he has nothing at all to do with the city schools, but in their choice they should be guided to a considerable extent by those directly connected with the county schools. There are eighty teachers and 225 trustees in this county, and as to my record in office I refer you to these people, who are almost unanimous in supporting me for re-election."[56] Brady won the June primary over J. H. Day by fewer than 100 votes;[57] the Statesman described the race as "neck and neck", and initially recorded Day as leading.[58] Brady won the November election uncontested.[59] He ultimately served two terms as superintendent.[60] His successor, Carl Hartman, was sworn in on 1 December 1904.[61] The following day, Brady helped conduct a teachers' examination, arranged by Hartman, for positions in the public school.[62] Brady also attended a meeting of the teachers' association on 17 December, where he was presented with an umbrella in appreciation of his tenure.[63]

At the end of 1904, while still officially superintendent, Brady matriculated at the University of Texas to study law.[64] While at the university Brady was involved in committees related to the final ball,[65][66] the auditing of expenses for the school yearbook,[67] and celebrations for Texas Independence Day.[68] Brady graduated in 1906 with a Bachelor of Laws.[69] In the month after graduation, Brady traveled to Texarkana, Texas, where he was the best man at the wedding of Roy Lee Walker,[70] the quartermaster for the Confederate Home in Austin.[71][72] He then spent several weeks in Milwaukee with a G. W. Briggs,[73] visiting the Louisiana Purchase Exposition in St. Louis around the same time.[74]

After graduation Brady moved to Pecos, where he worked with James McKenzie, a member of the Texas House of Representatives.[60][75][76] The firm, branded McKenzie & Brady, served both legal and real estate needs.[77][78] It included an abstract office which claimed to have complete abstracts of all of Reeves, Loving, and Winkler counties.[77]

District attorney

On 3 February 1909 Governor Thomas Mitchell Campbell appointed Brady the district attorney of the newly created seventieth judicial district,[79] coving Midland, Ector, Gaines, Glasscock, Reeves,[80] Ward,[81] Andrews, Crane, Loving, Winkler,[82] and Upton counties.[83] S. J. Isaacks,[84][85] a Midland attorney, was named the district's judge.[79]

León Martínez Jr.

In 1911, Brady was the district attorney for the prosecution of León Martínez Jr.,[86] a case that has since been termed a "legal lynching".[87] After a 26-year-old woman, Emma Brown, was found murdered, Martínez was arrested, largely on the evidence that he had been seen speaking to Brown at the general store the day of the murder.[88] Martínez, who was 15, confessed twice: once, when a posse promised not to hang him until the sheriff arrived if he confessed, and again, when the sheriff threatened to hand Martínez back to the posse if he did not confess.[88] In the early morning of 24 July 1911, two days after the murder, Brady held up Martínez's written (albeit coerced) confession to the crowd gathered outside the jail.[89]

Five days after Martínez's arrest, with Brady prosecuting, a guilty verdict and a death sentence were in hand.[86][90] After the verdict, according to The Galveston Daily News, "hundreds" of people came up to Brady and Judge Isaacks to shake their hands "for their prompt attention to the case and their narrow avertence of a lynching".[86] Isaacks scheduled the hanging for 1 September.[91] A petition, said to be signed by "nearly every person in Reeves county," was sent to Governor Oscar Branch Colquitt asking him to not grant clemency,[92] and Brady himself met with Colquitt in August for the same purpose.[93][94] National and international concern, as well as appeals,[95][96] including an unsuccessful appeal to the Supreme Court dismissed for lack of jurisdiction,[97] nonetheless pushed the case into 1914.[98] Brady was said by the El Paso Herald to be "active in pushing the case ... towards a carrying out of the judgment of the district court, calling for hanging, as strongly as he knows how" during these proceedings.[99] Martínez was hanged on 11 May 1914.[100]

In 1912 Brady tried another high-profile murder case, this time of Agnes Orner, who was charged with poisoning her eleven-year-old daughter in El Paso.[101][102][103] Orner had already been tried twice;[104] her first trial resulted in a conviction and life sentence that was subsequently reversed,[105][106] and her second trial ended in a mistrial.[107] Despite Brady's efforts, Orner's third trial also resulted in a mistrial, with eight jurors favoring acquittal and four conviction.[104] Orner was finally convicted on the sixth try,[108] then pardoned after serving five years in prison.[109]

In January 1913 the position of county judge for Reeves became vacant with the death of John Y. Leavell.[110] Brady was one of four applicants for the position, which was filled by vote of three county commissioners, but lost to Hector McKellar,[111][112] until then the district and county clerk.[110][113][note 2] In May, Brady prosecuted W. J. Hiles for the murder of Tom Tucker, a Reeves county commissioner who, Hiles claimed, had attempted to assault Hiles's wife.[114][115][116] Hiles was convicted of manslaughter, and given the lowest possible sentence of two years.[117][note 3] Immediately after the conviction Brady began prosecuting another murder case,[117][122] this time of James L. Wright, who was charged with shooting his Pecos neighbor C. C. Steed.[123][124] The case was tried in Midland County due to a change in venue;[note 4] Judge Isaacks went as far as to coordinate a special train run by the Pecos Valley Southern Railway to gather further potential jurors,[129] but after examining 176, was only able to seat eight.[130] Wright was convicted in September, and sentenced to 30 years in prison.[122][131] The case was "particularly remarkable", the Herald wrote, as the first murder case tried in Midland County in which a white man was convicted.[122][note 5]

Brady remained the district attorney into at least February 1914, when he extracted a confession from Fernando Subia to shooting and killing city marshal T. Y. Moorehead.[135] Brady testified at the trial, held that month,[135] which resulted in a conviction and death sentence; Subia's sentence was later commuted to life.[136][137] Newspapers compared the case to that of Leon Martinez, another Mexican accused of killing a white person, and before Subia's commutation, the two were held in adjoining cells and scheduled to be hanged the same month; on his way to the gallows, Martinez gave his loose change to Subia.[136][138]

County judge

Brady moved to El Paso in 1915.[139] He joined the law firm of Stafford and Mahan, which renamed itself Stafford, Brady & Mahan and took offices in the First National bank building.[140][141][note 6] In 1917 the El Paso County Court at Law was created, and Brady was chosen by Governor James E. Ferguson from among three candidates for the judgeship.[145][146][note 7] The court had jurisdiction over civil and criminal matters; the preexisting County Court of El Paso County retained jurisdiction as a juvenile and probate court, among other matters.[150][151][note 8] Brady inherited a $2,500 salary and a voluminous docket, with some 3,000 civil and 800 criminal cases.[158][159] The first session of the court lasted from 2 July to 27 July,[160] and saw numerous cases: among them for selling intoxicating liquors—Brady's first jury case as a judge[161]—false imprisonment,[162] carrying a pistol, nonsupport,[163] stealing lumber,[164] and negligent homicide.[165][note 9] Brady was given two weeks vacation by the county commissioners at the end,[168][169] spending it at Cloudcroft, New Mexico;[170] he placed his newly built home to let until September,[171] when the fall term convened.[172] The new docket included some 50 liquor cases, among others.[173][note 10] Brady also heard cases in November and December 1917.[note 11]

Brady was up for election in 1918, the first time his office would appear on the ballot. During race he voiced his support for prohibition,[192] and took out a half-page newspaper advertisement, along with county attorney William H. Fryer[193] and judge Walter D. Howe[194] of the thirty-fourth judicial district, calling it a lie to declare that licensed liquor dealers were uniformly law abiding.[195][196] Though he spent at least $430 (equivalent to $7,300 in 2019) campaigning,[197] Brady appeared unopposed on the primary ballot[198]—part of an engineering feat by the local Democratic Party, which aimed to reduce distractions by lining up the ticket ahead of time and supporting existing officeholders.[199][200]

Meanwhile, Brady continued hearing cases throughout 1918.[201][202] Early into the January 1918 term, in a case which the El Paso Herald declared attracted "great interest", Anna Reum was convicted of practicing medicine without a license, fined $250, and sentenced to three months in the county jail;[203][204][note 12] the conviction was later reversed due to a legal error by Brady.[220][221][note 13] Brady spent part of the first week of February in Pecos, where he served as special judge for a trial.[223][note 14] He returned in time to oversee a second trial for Reum, who had been rearrested on the same charges while Brady was away;[226] this time she was fined $100 and sentenced to 15 days in jail.[227]

In March 1918, the Texas Legislature passed a bill, introduced by R. Ewing Thomason, giving the El Paso County Court at Law and the County Court of El Paso County concurrent jurisdiction over criminal matters.[228][229] The bill was intended to make the operation of the courts more efficient, with the county court hearing Criminal Cases when the County Court at Law was busy.[230] Brady thus continued presiding over some criminal matters,[231] including a March trial in which a police surgeon, John A. Hardy,[232] was found not guilty of hitting a hotel proprietor with a pistol.[233] By September, however, he and county judge Edward B. McClintock agreed that Brady would handle civil matters and McClintock criminal.[234] In December, Brady denied a writ of habeas corpus to Charles Holman, who, at his trial for traffic violations, was held in contempt and ordered confined for 24 hours for using the word "damn" in the courtroom.[235] Brady also had an active docket in June 1919, with at least nine jury trials.[236][237]

Oil

In early 1919 Brady visited Pecos, where he still owned land; upon his return, he told the Herald that all indications suggested oil and gas would be found there.[238] On 9 June 1919 Brady was one of the incorporators of the Cruces Oil Corporation in New Mexico.[239][240] Toward the middle of the year He began spending time in California, and beginning with the July term,[241] temporary judges, including J. G. Highnote and Edgar Williams, were named to take his place.[242][243] Brady returned to El Paso on Monday 29 September and resigned his judgeship that Friday,[244] in order to take a position in Los Angeles with the Sunshine Oil Corporation,[245][246] a partner of the Cruces Oil Corporation.[247][248][249][note 15] Brady worked as an attorney and director for the company,[254] and was eventually joined there by his brother David.[255] Within weeks, Will Brady and Sunshine were advertising leases in the Pecos Valley oil field in California papers, stating that the Laura well in Pecos was "expected to come in with big flow of oil any time".[256]

By November 1919 the Sunshine Oil Corporation claimed 170,000 acres of oil rights, mostly in the Pecos valley, although it held some interests in the Montebello oil fields in California, and in Big Spring, Texas.[257][258] It had at least three wells in various stages of drilling, including the Laura well, and in Ward county the Victory and Leeman wells.[257][258] The company claimed to have raised some $80,000 from the sales of its leases.[257]

Brady was admitted to the California bar in 1925,[259] and soon thereafter represented the Rhoads Oil Producing company in a lawsuit against the oil producer Barnett Rosenberg; Rhoads claimed damages of $100,000, relating to Rosenberg's abandonment of five wells in Huntington Beach.[260] By 1929, Brady was the secretary of the M. K. & T. Oil Company in Ventura, California.[261][262][263] At points in his career Brady also served as an agent for the National Petroleum Finance corporation,[264] and worked in Santa Barbara as an oil attorney.[1] In 1931, federal judge William P. James appointed Brady the receiver for the Yalemont Oil company, which operated near Santa Barbara.[265]

Later years

Brady moved to Creston around 1931.[1] By 1934 he was serving as the secretary-treasurer of the San Luis Obispo County branch of the National Farm Loan Association.[266] The organization was one of several efforts to provide greater financial relief to the agricultural industry,[267] particularly through loans to farmers,[268] and involved coordination with the Federal Land Bank Association.[269][270] Brady held the position through at least 1936,[271] eventually retiring due to ill health.[1]

Politics

Brady was an avowed Democrat,[272][273] and active in local and state politics. In Austin during the 1904 election, he was appointed a Travis County delegate to the state democratic convention in San Antonio.[274] Likewise, during the 1908 election that followed his move to Pecos, Brady was a appointed a Reeves County delegate to the state democratic convention,[275] and president of a Bryan-Kern club.[276]

In El Paso by 1916, Brady was the chairman of the county democratic executive committee,[277] and the secretary of the Ferguson Democratic club, arranged in support of Governor Ferguson's relection campaign.[278][279] That year Brady endorsed Alfred John Harper for a second term as a judge for the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals,[280] and attended the state democratic convention in Houston.[277] In early 1917 he ran for reelection to the executive committee in the city primary,[281][282] winning and setting up a race in the general election in April;[283][284][285] Brady ultimately kept his position on the committee until assuming his judgeship, which disqualified him from the former role.[286] Later in 1917, Brady served on the finance committee for a luncheon honoring state senator Claude Benton Hudspeth.[287] The following year, in the days leading up to the July 27 primary in which Brady was also a candidate, he attended a lunch supporting the candidacy of Adrian Pool for the state legislature,[288] reaffirmed his support for Hudspeth,[289] and chaired a political meeting where county attorney Fryer spoke out against illegal bars.[290]

Following his move to California, Brady served as the local manager for the campaign of Franklin D. Roosevelt and John Nance Garner for the 1932 presidential election,[1][291] working under the direction of the San Luis Obispo County Central Committee and the campaign headquarters in Los Angeles.[292] Brady was in charge of the San Luis Obispo headquarters on Monterey Street,[293] and worked to set up affiliate clubs throughout the county, such as in Oceano,[291] Pismo Beach,[292] and Arroyo Grande.[294] He remained a member of the committee after the election.[295] He spent only a short time in Creston, moving to San Luis Obispo thereafter;[1] he was living there by 1933, when the San Luis Obispo county Democratic central committee endorsed him for a position as assistant U.S. district attorney for the Southern District of California.[296] The same year he campaigned for Proposition 4, which would make certain not-for-profit educational institutions tax exempt, visiting the offices of the Pismo Times and penning a half-page article in its pages about the cause.[297][298] He also assisted the Home Owners' Loan Corporation's federal appraiser for San Luis Obispo, William C. O'Donnell—appointed through the recommendation of the county Democratic Central committee, as channeled through Congressman Henry E. Stubbs—in helping others acquire home loans.[299] The year after Stubbs appointed him to the state Democratic Central committee.[300][301] In 1936 he was appointed chairman of the local finance division of the Democratic National Committee, and also designated local chairman of the "Roosevelt nominators", supporting Roosevelt's reelection campaign.[302]

Business

According to the Pecos Times, Brady was "for many years among the front ranks of our business men in the boosting of Pecos and could always be relied upon for the bettering of the community".[139] In 1909 he, along with his former colleague McKenzie and Ernest D. Balcom,[303][304] C. W. Griffin, and H. Roddins, was one of the incorporators of the Pecos Valley Southern Railway.[305][306] The railroad was intended to connect Pecos with Presidio, 150 miles to the south, but settled for a terminus at Toyahvale when funds ran dry.[307] Opening in 1910, the railroad offered farmers a faster route to market, and passengers a smoother and less dusty road.[307]

In 1911 Brady again helped bring a railroad to Pecos.[308] On behalf of the city, he and nine others signed a contract with M. J. Healy of the Panhandle, Pecos & Gulf of Texas railway, to build a railway from Texico or Tucumcari to Knowles, all in New Mexico, and then to Pecos.[308][note 16]

Social life

The El Paso Herald described Brady as "one of the best known public men in west Texas",[309] and the El Paso Times termed him "our popular district attorney".[310] Brady was involved in various organizations in Austin and then Pecos,[311][312] including as a quartermaster sergeant of the Austin Rifles,[313] member of the YMCA,[314] manager of the Pecos baseball team,[315][316] and president of the fire department for 1911,[317] 1912,[318] and 1913.[319] In 1902 he was elected a delegate to the Catholic Knights of America convention in Waco,[320] and at the Galveston convention in 1904, was elected vice president.[321] By 1906 he was the acting state president of the organization,[322] and presided over the convention in Corpus Christi,[323][324] where he was elected president;[325] he had traveled there with his father.[322][326] Meanwhile, Brady was involved in local activities of the Knights, such as its annual picnic.[327][328][329] Brady was likewise a founding member of the Knights of Columbus in Pecos,[330][331] served as a delegate to a 1911 Knights of Pythias district meeting in El Paso,[332] and helped organize the Pecos Society of United Charities.[333]

Brady also served as the vice president of the Pecos commercial club.[334] In this capacity he met with members of the Gould and Texas & Pacific lines,[335] attended the Conservation Association of Texas congress as a delegate,[336] and recommended a $200,000 good-roads bond issue for Reeves County.[334] The club placed Brady in charge of a committee to raise money and provide management for the first annual fair and barbeque in Pecos, held in September 1911.[337][338][339] Named the "Pecos Fair, Barbeque and Old Settlers' Reunion", the fair invited visitors from west Texas and New Mexico.[340][341] The Herald declared the fair "an unqualified success" with crowds of more than 1,375 at once and 5,000 total,[342][343] and wrote that congratulations were "being poured upon general manager Will P. Brady".[344] The success led to the creation of the Reeves County Fair association, with Brady president, which planned to purchase 40 acres of land and erect permanent structures to permit an annual fair.[345][346] Brady subsequently helped raise $6,000 for the construction of the 1912 fair, held in October,[347][348][349] and remained a director for the 1913 and 1914 fairs.[350][351]

Following his 1915 move to El Paso, Brady remained involved in the social life of his new home. That year he attended banquets thrown by the chamber of commerce for Senator Morris Sheppard, and by the Knights of Columbus (of which Brady remained a member[352]) for Bishop Anthony Joseph Schuler, both at the Hotel Paso del Norte.[353][354] Brady escorted Sheppard during part's of his time in El Paso,[355] and stood on stage during the senator's speech on "Christian Civilization and Fraternalism".[356] Afterwards, he suggested that Sheppard's role on the Committee on Military Affairs could help secure a brigade post in the city.[357] By 1916 he was an organizer of a local University of Texas alumni group,[358][359][360][361] and a member of the El Paso County Bar Association.[362][363] In October Brady became a charter member of "The Tri-State Bar association", an organization of lawyers from Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas.[364][365] With the American entry into World War I in 1917, Brady purchased $100 of Liberty bonds from Judge McClintock,[366][367] and along with other elected officials took out a full-page ad urging others to do the same;[368] Brady himself installed a flag above his court-room chair as a statement of his patriotism.[369] Across 1917 and 1918,[370] he and other members of the local bar assisted those filling out draft questionnaires.[371][372][373] In early 1918 Brady chaperoned the Liberty club dance with his wife, sister, and sister's husband,[374] and in September he helped advertise a talk by Louis F. Post,[375] and, again at a Knights of Columbus event with Bishop Schuler, presided and introduced the bishop.[376]

In San Luis Obispo, Brady was involved in activities with the Old Mission Parish. This included, in 1933, serving as the secretary for the mission's annual autumn festival.[377] In 1936 and 1937 he helped coordinate the annual Fiesta de las Flores, used to raise funds the restore the mission.[378][379]

Personal life
Brady's grave in San Luis Obispo

Brady married Mabel Rarey on 30 November 1911, at St. Nicholas Church in Carlsbad, New Mexico.[309][380] Rarey was from Carlsbad,[381][382] having moved there with her parents when young.[383][384] Over the three years preceding her marriage she had spent time in New York and other northern states, as well as Pecos, where she met Brady.[385] The two returned to Pecos on December 1,[385] and were promptly thrown a banquet by the newly formed Pecos bar association.[386][387][note 17] Once the term of the criminal court ended, the two planned to travel through the south and visit Brady's relatives in Arizona.[385]

Brady and his wife, with a baby in tow, spent two weeks in Carlsbad with her parents in November 1914,[389] then spent Christmas with Brady's family in El Paso, at his sister Helen's house on Montana Street.[390][391] Brady and his sister's husband, Dan White,[392] had the year before sold a tract of land at Ochoa and River streets to James Brady, for $2,000.[393] Soon after moving to El Paso in 1915, Will Brady took a home on Fort Boulevard,[394] then purchased two lots of land along Grant Avenue and Rosewood Street for $1,500, with plans to build a modern residence;[395][396][397] he ended up contracting for a five-room bungalow costing $3,500.[398][399]

After being in ill health for some time, Brady died on 27 February 1943 in San Luis Obispo, where he is buried.[1] His wife died in June 1951, in Los Angeles.[400] At their deaths they had four surviving children: Helen Jane and Catherine Marie Brady of San Luis Obispo, Sister Elizabeth Marie Brady of San Bernardino, and Master Sgt. James William Brady, stationed at Hobbs Army Airfield in New Mexico.[1][400][401]

Notes
  1. Around the time of his announcement,[31] Brady gave a presentation address at the Travis County Teachers' association to the outgoing superintendent, John E. Shelton, and presented him with a bronze clock and silver-headed walking cane.[32]
  2. The other two applicants were Harry MacTier and F. P. Richberg.[110]
  3. The conviction was reversed on appeal the following year.[118][119] Hiles was again convicted of manslaughter in 1915, and the verdict sustained.[120][121]
  4. Accordingly, Brady tried the case alongside Earl Anderson,[122] the county attorney for Midland County,[125] who later became assistant state's attorney general in Arizona.[126][127][128].
  5. The case was affirmed on appeal the following year.[132][133] Wright was ultimately pardoned on August 18, 1920.[134]
  6. Brady may have been the "W. P. Brady" who, in August 1916, withdrew from a criminal-assault case during a preliminary hearing, after hearing the testimony of the twelve-year-old accuser and discovering that his client was wanted in California on a similar charge.[142] The client, William Dayton, ended up being sentenced to ten years in prison following an initial mistial.[143][144]
  7. The other candidates were Peyton Forbes Edwards, formerly a district judge and speaker in the Texas House of Representatives,[147] and Charles H. Veale,[145] at one point an assistant district attorney.[148][149]
  8. Brady's was a recess appointment, made in June but submitted to the Texas Senate in August;[152] although the Senate approved the nomination,[153] Brady saw a brief period of uncertainty when litigation arising out of the governor's appointments suggested that a valid appointment under the circumstances could only be made by the county commissioners.[154][155][156] The commissioners thus called a special session in October, four months after Brady's original appointment, and reappointed him to ensure he was validly installed.[157][156]
  9. Among those cases reported in the newspapers, A.

Lane, charged with carrying a pistol, conducting a raffle, and swindle, respectively,[185] and Brady ordered Jose Taranga's $1 fine for theft remitted, in order that Taranga could join the U.S. military.[186]
  11. These cases included a test case brought by the Western Indemnity company, claiming jitne drivers were unable to terminate surety contracts early.[187] Brady's cases also included those of William Newton, found guilty by a jury for assault and fined $50,[188] vagrancy cases against Gladys Johnson, Helen Johnson, Grace Shelby, Edna Smith, Beatrice King, Lillian Winns, and May White—each resulting in a guilty plea and $5 fine—and bond forfeitures for Mrs. C.

  12. Reum had moved to El Paso around 1900 with her husband Charles,[205] also a physician.[206] In May 1902, Charles Reum was charged with practicing medicine without a license,[207][208] while his wife was tried twice for performing an abortion; the first trial ended in a hung jury,[209] and the second in an acquittal.[210] In June 1905 Anna Reum was again charged with performing an abortion, and this time convicted and sentenced to two years in prison.[211] The case was affirmed on appeal in December,[212][213] but Reum was pardoned by Governor S. W. T. Lanham in January.[214] Both Reums were charged with practicing medicine without a license in 1908,[215] and in 1909 Anna Reum was acquitted of the same charge.[216] Charles Reum was arrested in June 1917 after his stepson called officers to the home and, upon the door to Reum's room being broken down, Reum slashed his stepson with a knife.[146] The El Paso Herald reported that charges of assault to murder, and insanity, were levied against Reum.[217] Charles Reum was again arrested in 1919, pleaded guilty to violating the Harrison Narcotics Tax Act by administering narcotics, and was sentenced to a year and a day in the Leavenworth federal prison in Kansas.[218] The following month the district attorney filed a suit to cancel Charles Reum's medical license.[219]
  13. Other cases in January included those of George Coleman, sentenced to six months for theft; C. W. Alexander, sentenced to four months for theft; A. Ledesma, sentenced to four months for theft; Joe Duran, sentenced to four months for theft; A. Martinez and A. Garcia, transferred to juvenile court for theft; John Doe Ferguson, fined $25 for assault; and L. Munoz, fined $5 for assault.[222]
  14. The bar association elected William Pelphrey,[224] who was soon to become county attorney,[225] to take Brady's place in the interim.[223]
  15. The county commissioners chose James M. Deaver,[250] previously a justice of the peace, to succeed Brady; Breedlove Smith,[251] the son of William Robert Smith, was in turn named to Deaver's position.[252] Breedlove Smith had also been mentioned as a possible replacement for Brady, as were J. A. Gillett, Edgar Williams, and Peyton Edwards.[253]
  16. The others were F. W. Johnson, J. G. Love, J. W. Moore, R. S. Johnson, T. Y. Casey, Sam Prewitt, W. A. Hudson, A. H. Phillips, and Jas. Goode.[308]
  17. By 1912 the organization was known as the Reeves County Bar assocation; Brady spoke at that year's banquet.[388]
