Theophilus Steward Langston

A Brother from the first 14 initiated. Brother Theophilus Steward Langston. Originally from Bridgeton, New Jersey. Served in the U.S. Army and eventually moved to Chicago where he was a successful dentist. Apparently, he lived and worked at his office. Address: 4835 Michigan Ave. (Any Brothers in Chicago, try to take a picture of that location and post it in here, if it still exists). I was lucky enough on many ocassions to talk with his son before he passed away and he informed me that his father – our Fraternity Brother – was the individual who designed our Fraternity pin and that for many years the original drawing hung on the wall behind his office desk. He said he also believed his dental practice was across the street from the Chicago Fraternity House, but I am not familiar at all with that area so I don’t know how accurate that is. Someone ask Clarence Johnson. Enjoy. (More TS Langston photos)
