Ruy H. Finch [b.1890 - ] Noted Vocanologist. Typewritten statement signed on 1937 proof sheet for inclusion of WHO'S WHO IN AMERICA. Finch sassily writes back: "Why do you include all of the county judges in Hawaii? It is true that they are appointed by the President but that is because of the organic act by which Hawaii became a part of the U.S. For the most part they are second or third rate lawyers. A few might be classed as fourth rate lawyers."; Manuscript; 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall; HANDWRITTEN, MANUSCRIPT, DOCUMENT, LETTER, AUTOGRAPH, WRITER, HAND WRITTEN, DOCUMENTS, SIGNED, LETTERS, MANUSCRIPTS, HISTORICAL, HOLOGRAPH, WRITERS, DIARIES, JOURNALS, LOGS, AUTOGRAPHS, PERSONAL, MEMOIR, MEMORIAL, PERSONAL HISTORY, AMERICANA, HAWAII, VOLCANO, VOLCANOES, VULCANOLOGIST, VOLCANOLOGIST
