Description	No yearning for yesterdays for globe trotter Webster; would life same again. - Early day Spokane attorney pulled down his sign at 50, started out to see world; visits every country having flag ; starts history at 71. The worlds champion globe-trotter is a Spokane man. He is E. J. Webster, former Spokane attorney. Mr. Webster came to Spokane in 1882, "hung out his shingle" and began to practice law here when the city was in its infancy. He was prominent in business circles during his residence here until 1900, and was active in securing new civic improvements, and his untiring efforts for the upbuilding of the then small and struggling town will be remembered by Spokane pioneers.
