Consul General Lewis in Morocco and a Philadelphia past
Philadelphia dispatch details Consul General William R. Lewis, under 35, whose protests over a U S protection arrest stirred tensions in Tangier. The piece recalls his youth, a thwarted marriage to a theater family, and a later career path including a Philadelphia mint posting and a Tangier consul role amid Moorish control disputes over American citizens. The article also reports on rag gathering, its scale, and regional trade notes from New York to Chicago, plus brief notices of attorneys and local advertisements.
