John A. Hull

John A. Hull

John Adley Hull (August 7, 1874–April 17, 1944) was born in Bloomfield, Iowa to John A.T. Hull and Emma Gregory.

He received his Bachelor of Law degree from the University of Iowa.

At the beginning of the Spanish-American War he enlisted in the Iowa National Guard and was promoted to Lieutenant Colonel and Judge Advocate, U.S. Volunteers. In 1901, he was appointed a major in the Judge Advocates General's Corps. He would serve as legal advisor to Governor General of the Philippines Francis Burton Harrison (1913-1921).

He married Norma Bowler King at Fort Meyers, Virginia, in 1919. She would divorce him on May 22, 1934, in Reno, Nevada.

President Calvin Coolidge nominated him to be judge advocate general of the army with the rank of major general in 1924, a position he held until 1928, when he retired from the Army. In 1927, it was thought he would succeed Leonard Wood as Governor General of the Philippines.

In February, 1930, Hull served as Chief Legal Advisor to Governor General of the Philippines Dwight F. Davis until 1932, when President Herbert C. Hoover appointed him Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the Philippines. He resigned from the court on February 1,1936. Earlier Philippine President Manuel Quezon had ruled that the Court of Appeals Act provided for only Philippine judges.

He died at Walter Reed Hospital in Washington, D.C. on April 17, 1944.
