her son, Stephen Kearny Radford,
three buildings in Paducah, KY. to
George Reginald nsdford, one store

city, q tenement house, and 30 shares
of Dodson coal company stock"
The property consists Of the two
buildings now occupied by the George
Goodman company and the Jake Bed
erman Grocery company on Second
street, near the alley, the three build
ings occupied by M. Nance ana O. o.
Lee at Third and Kentucky, and the
double tenement brick on Kentucky
avenue back of the Nance building,
the latter having been built on what
was then one town lot. The property
is very valuable. Mr.. T. ]. Flournoy,
who is the local agent, has received no
notice of Mrs. Radford's death as yet.
There are few people, if any, here
who remember Admiral Radford, or
ever saw him. Most Of the old citi-
zens say that he never lived here, but
DR.. s. B. Caldwell states that Admi-
raj Radford resided in Paducah in the
40's. and about that time came into
possession Of the property above.
An interesting thing in connection
with the deceased admiral is that he
was midshipman on the ship which
brought General Lafayette from
France to this country.
