WALLACE E. PURDY.

 

        Wallace E. Purdy is the youngest member of the law firm of Hall, Alexander & Purdy, one of the strongest firms practicing at the bar of  Brookings. He was born in Brooklyn, New York, February 3, 1883, his parents being George E. and Rhoda C. (Wallace) Purdy. His ancestry in the paternal line can be traced back in the state of New York to the eighteenth century. The great-great-grandfather, David Purdy, was born at North Castle, New York, in 1791, but of his father the family has no record. The mother's people — the Wallaces — came to North America about two generations ago, settling in Canada and thence drifting over into the United States, settling in Ohio. The father met and married his life's helpmate in Brooklyn, where she was visiting a sister, having gone to that city from her home in Cleveland, Ohio. In October, 1889, George E. Purdy came to South Dakota and settled in Brookings, where for the past ten years he has been the custodian of the buildings at the State College.

 

        Wallace E. Purdy was a little lad of but six years at the time of the arrival in this state. He at once entered the public schools and when he had mastered the course of instruction therein taught he entered the South Dakota State College at Brookings. Immediately following the completion of his studies he took up the study of law in 1902 in the office of Cheever & Cheever, of Brookings, and in October, 1906, he was admitted to the South Dakota bar. He then entered upon the practice of his profession and a year later became a member of the law firm of Hall, Alexander & Purdy, one of the leading law firms of eastern South Dakota. He is a young man of ambition and energy, qualities which are as requisite in law practice as in commercial or industrial lines. He was elected to the office of state's attorney of Brookings county in November, 1914.

 

        In 1907 Mr. Purdy was united in marriage to Miss Lola G. La Grave, of Faribault, Minnesota, and to this marriage has been born a daughter, Helen Jean. Mr. Purdy is a member of Brookings Lodge, No. 24, A. F. & A. M., and also of the Ancient Order of United Workmen, the Improved Order of Red Men and the Brookings Commercial Club He likewise has membership with the Baptist church, while his wife is an Episcopalian. They are a well known and popular young couple of the city and the number of their friends attests the attractiveness of their social qualities and of their warm-hearted hospitality.
