Spirit of the age. [volume] (Woodstock, Vt.) 1845-1913, 1884-03-12

DR.. Hazen was shook up some on
Thursday of last week. His horse
took fright in the street, and shying to
one side overturned the sleigh, throw
ing the doctor out against u stone post,
from which he received some slight
cuts and bruises.
Maj. Henry B. Brady is dead, and
like Nicanor he died bravely in battle
the battle of life. To quote the apos-
trophe of Macbeth, "Ilc should have
died hereafter, there would have been
time for such a word" But if we
count life by its enjoyment, instead of
figures on the dial plate Of time, Mr..
Bradley has lived far beyond the alot-
ted period of the Psalmist He was G2
years of age, was born in this town,
spent his life here, and was widely
known and respected by all who made
his acquaintance. Previous to the late
war he was employed as clerk and gen
eral manager of the Windsor County
Mutual Fire Insurance Company, and
shortly after the breaking out of the
war, he resigned this position and went
into Adutant General Washburn's Of
flee as chief clerk, position which he
held until the whole business was
closed up, and the trace of his legible
pen on the records of the State will
live forever. He was valuable aid
to Mr.. Washburn in those trying days,
and his position brought him in con-
tact with the greatest minds of the
state and country. Lately he has been
engaged extensively in the fire and life
insurance business. About three weeks
ago he was taken down with valvular
trouble of the heart, and died on
Thursday night last. The funeral was
held at his late residence on Sunday, at
which there was a large attendance of
friends and neighbors, Rev. Moses
Kidder officiating, Mr.. Bradley was
u kind husband, indulgent father, and
good neighbor-in fact, eternal sun
shine seemed to be ever about him,
and it done person good to come in
contact with him-always genial,
whole-soulcd, and full of fun. Mai.
Bradley will be greatly missed in this
community, and throughout the State
generally. We think the coupet of
the poet Burns on friend is appropri-
ate hcre:--
