Gompers, Abraham Julian (1876-1903), was the son of SG and Sophia Julian Gompers; he worked in New York City in the clothing industry as a cutter. In 1901, after he contracted tuberculosis, his parents sent him to convalesce at the Denver home of Max Morris, secretary and treasurer of the Retail Clerks' International Protective Association. Abraham worked briefly for the association before his death. -- "Samuel Gompers Papers" http://www.gompers.umd.edu/glossary.htm
