FLAMING SWORD - Community Current Events by D. J. Richards, Feb 1924: "The reports of the Koreshan meetings received from Chicago, held every Sunday afternoon at 2:30 at the old Masonic Temple, now known as the Capitol Building, are very encouraging indeed. The meetings are in charge of Mr. L. H. Bubbett, 7740 Haskins Avenue. Anyone desirous of information concerning them can get it by writing to the above address, and enclosing a stamped, self-addressed envelope."
FLAMING SWORD - Community Current Events by D. J. Richards, December 1936: "On Saturday morning, October 31, the Unity received a telegram from Mr. Leroy H. Bubbett, our representative in Winnetka Ill., to the effect that he would arrive in Fort Myers that morning and for someone to meet him. We did, but it was most evident that Leroy was not long for this world, for he arrived completely exhausted and a very sick man indeed. The end came the following Tuesday, November 3, at 3:30 p.m. Brother Roy, as he was familiarly known to
us, was one of the early pioneers of the Koreshan movement in Chicago, coming into the home when a lad with his parents, Brother James and Sister Evelyn Bubbett. He performed much valuable service in those early days and since, and was ready at all times to champion the Cause of Koreshanity. He is survived by his wife and daughter, who reside at Winnetka; a son at Birmingham, Alabama, and his brother, Laurence Bubbett, of Estero. His son, Victor Bubbett, arrived in Estero Thursday morning following his father's demise, and left the next day for Winnetka."
