In a personal letter from New York city to
q New Havener the following occurs: One of
the features of Wall street which old residents
of New Haven recognize in passing down that
street, standing az a sentinel In the Stevens
building, No. Is Wall street, is "Colonel"
Adam Hudson, formerly the respectful, dig
nifed and respected coachman of the late
Mr.. Sampson, who married Miss Apthorp and
who spent his summers at the Apthorp man
sion on Hillhouse avenue. Mr.. Stevens,
am told, was a nephew of Mr.. Sampson and
his estate, and 80 provides for the
faithful old coaehman by giving him charge
Of his building on Wall street. The "colo-
mel" speaks pleasingly of being recognized by
Mr.. Ezekiel H. Trowbridge, Mr.. James
Townsend and other old Inhabitants of New
Haven as they enter or pass the building.
The numerous acquaintance here of our
friend Mr.. George D. Bradley of
Brooklyn, N. r., we're last week glad once
more to see his familiar face on the streets
Of this his native place, where for moro than
two-thirds of q century he made his homo.
His hale and hearty appearance, his firm,
steady step and erect figure little denote the
fourscore years that have passed over his
head. He frequently visits New Haven on
business connected with his property here.
We hope he may continue to do so for long
lime to come and that he may have vouoh.
,afed to him the full measure of years and
aonors attained by his venerable father, the
ate Beriah Bradley, who q few years since,
after a most useful and exemplary life of
nearly a century among us, passed to his
great reward at the ripe age of ninety seven
years.
