6 George H. Huddell, aged about so
years, died suddenly at Atlantic City
| on Tuesday, April Goth, 1904. He was
a coal merchant in Philadelphia and
owned property in Wildwood. About
a year or so p Mr.. Huddell attracted
a great deal of attention on the island
in his effort to obtain a controlling
interest of the stock of the Marine Ma
tional Bank of Wildwood. He sent his
agent around with big rolls of green
backs and succeeded in buying up con-
siderable of the stock at prices ranging
from $40 to about $l75 per share, a
price much in excess of its real value.
For a time he gave the present man.
agement of the bank some uneaslness,
but he was unsuccessful in obtaining
enough stock to wrest the control OF the
bank from its present conservative
management.

There are some good opportunities to

will surely prove profitable. Baker
