was one OF ii number to visit Cumber-
land Monday Labor Day, to witness
the parade and other obServauces of the
occasion.
In crowded electric car he left at {
p. IN, expecting to reach home an hour
later. There is some uncertainty of
statement of Just how the accident which
cost his life occurred, but the most
rational is that, standing for sometime
on the front platform, he became faint
and sat on the step. AS the car rounded
the curve at the base of Red Hill' with
its usual swing Mr. Brady WAS thrown
off and under the car. The wheels cut
off one arm and one leg, broke his spine
and crushed him frightfully. The car
stopped and a host of willing helpers
rescued replaced him on the car and
brought him home Meanwhile, he lost
much blood before surgical aid could
reach him. In much pain he fingered
until ) minutes past | Tuesday morning
when death relieved him.
For the most part he was conscious
and it is said blamed no one for his
misfortune.
He was born near Eckhart April 23
AlSIS, and was therefore i'll the 18th year
of his age. Three years he was stu
dent of Ellicott City College at the
time a claSs-mate of Rev. J. ). Cuddy,
one of the assistant pastors of St
Michael's Church. For six years he had
been salesman i'll Charles F. Betz's
grocery and very many liked to have
him "wait upon them. Outside his
quiet, amiable qualities, made him an
esteemed member of large circle.
All these and the public at large sym

Brady; one sister-MisS Katharine, aud
