Grant to Serve Imprisonment in Opium Case in Philippines
Louis T Grant once a noted Honolulu electrical contractor, was sentenced to two years in prison by the Philippine courts for participation in a 1909 opium smuggling scheme. The Supreme Court of the Philippines denied his writ of error, and only clemency from the Governor General could halt the term. Grant and co-defendant William Kennedy were implicated in concealing over twenty thousand pesos worth of opium in what appeared to be steel columns and engine parts, with Grant having earlier operated in Honolulu and Manila under the L T Grant Electrical Corporation.
