Xenophon Huddy
Xenophon Pearce Huddy (1876–1943) was an American lawyer, specializing in automobile law.
Huddy graduated from Yale University[1] cum laude,[2] and was admitted to the New York Bar on January 5, 1906,[3] after which he became a senior partner in the law practice of MacHenry, Huddy & Cook[4] with partners Charles Ainsworth MacHenry[4] and Philip R. Cook at 309 Broadway, New York City. By 1906, he was a regular contributor to Horseless Age, and lectured before the Automobile Club of America,[5][6] among others. In his legal practice, he was known for his opinions on automobile law, and argued pro-motorist cases in court.[7] His 1906 book, The Law Of Automobiles, and writings are considered the first serious legal opinions on the philosophy of automobile law,[8] and were important in informing later legal thinking.
He was a descendant of American Revolutionary War Capt. Joshua Huddy, and lectured on Revolutionary War topics. Evidence exists that he later became a judge.
Mrs. Xenophon Huddy testified before Congress on Prohibition[9]
