Judge Little Dead
Globe, Ariz., Aug. 24-- Judge P. C. Little of the law firm of Rawlins & Little and one of the best known and best liked attorneys in the southwest, died here last Thursday night at his home after a short illness.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
He died at the family residence, 139 N. Devereaux St. in Globe. The family decided to hold the funeral on the very day he died, as the remains then went to Los Angeles for last rites and cremation. He died suddenly. He had not been feeling well for a few months, and had been in poor health for 2-3 years, but it was not known how serious it was. He was Lutheran, and services were conducted at the church in Globe.
He was a member of the Globe Lodge No. 489, B.P.O.E. and Rescue Lodge No. 12, I.O.O.F. He was born in Hickory, N.C. in 1861, the son of Peter and Elanora (Henkel) Little. His father died when he was one year old. His mother lived to be 85, and died April 1913. He had 4 siblings, with only one to survive him.
He went to school in North Carolina, and studied law at Concordia College in Gravelton, Mo., graduating in 1886. Two years later he was admitted to the Missouri bar, and there practiced for four years before going to California in 1893. After six years, he went to Arizona and settled in Clifton, where he practiced until 1907. During that time he served two terms as probate judge for Graham County. His Globe law partner, Charles L. Rawlins, was district attorney. Both gentlemen removed to Globe and formed a law partnership. Although their practice was general, covering litigation in all points of the state, Judge Little made a specialty of corporation law, and built up an unusually successful practice in that line.
He married Julia Pernicia Dalton of Greenville, Mo. in 1889. One of their sons, Kirby Dalton Little, became assistant district attorney for Gila County, and candidate for the Democratic nomination for County Attorney. His first wife died in 1899, and in 1902 he married Miss Emma C. Whitener, a native of Wayne County, Mo., and daughter of Miles. W. Whitener.
