Charles c. Bradley.

After an illness of several months
duration, DR.. Charles G. Bradley
died at his home in this city last
Saturday morning.
Charles G. Bradley was born in
tho village of Cuba, state Of New
York, on May 5, l84l. After his
graduation from the public schools
in his native town, he became a
student in the Academy at Rush
ford, N. Y. Upon completing the
academic course he decided to pre-
pare himself for the profession Of
physician and surgeon and began
his studies therefor in the office Of
DR.. o. T. Stacy at Rushford., While
he was SO engaged, the call came
for volunteers to save the Union.
Abandoning his studies on June %,
1862, he enlisted for three years as
a private in Co. A. 1876 N. Y. Volun-
teer infantry, and was assigned to
do duty as hospital steward. He
served to the close of the war, was
present at the surrender of John
sons army at Goldsboro, on April
&c, 1865, and was discharged at the
General musterout, June 1865, at
Rochester, N. Y. He Immediately
thereafter resumed his studies and
in the fall of 1865, became student
of the Bellevue Hospital Medical
college in New York City, received
his diploma in the spring of 1867,
and the same year came west and
located in this city, forming a part
ship with DR.. Joseph w. Robbins,
which was continued but short
time, DR.. Bradley retaining the bus
mess Of the firm. A few months
after the dissolution of the firm of
Robbins & Bradley, he was offered
and accepteda membership in the
firm of Acers, Morse & Laning, at
that time the most prominent firm
Of physicians in the county, and the
firm was thereafter known as Acres,
Morse, Laning & Bradley. This CO.
partnership was dissolved by the
death of DIR. Morse and the removal
from the state of Messrs. Acres and
Laning. In 1870 he formed part
nership with the late DIR. w. B..
Sherman, under the firm name Of
Bradley & Sherman, which was con-
tinued until about six years ago,
when it was terminated by the re-
moval of DR.. Sherman to Ohio. Soon
thereafter partnership was formed
between him and his son, DR.. Harry
NJ. Bradley, which was dissolved
owing to the i'll health of the de.
ceased.
DR.. Bradley early in his profess
sional career, attained high rank
among the leading physicians and
surgeons in this section of the state.
As a husband and parent he was
kind, affectionate and indulgent
and as citizen was patriotic and
public spirited. Though sometimes
blunt in speech, he was genial and
companionable and was Of very
kind and sympathetic disposition.
