JUDGE FRANKLIN CHASE HOYT,
Presiding Over the Children’s Court, New York City.

JUDGE FRANKLIN CHASE HOYT

In cause and city great, a jurist great,

For every mother’s child a kindly heart;

Stern Justice he would join to Mercy’s art,

For sire and son, a vision high create;

For all the hopeless ones the path elate.

Ah, future generations will he start,
