PATRIARCH DIES
At AGE OF 10.
BRADFORD CAST HIS FIRST VOTE
FOR MoNRoE--NEVER RODE
ON A TRAIN.

Lisco, Neb., March s.--The Oldest
person in Nebraska. Aaron Bradford.
has just died near here at the age Of
lis. Bradford was a remarkable man
and retained his mental faculties to
the time OF his death He never married
and is not supposed to have a relative
living. He had resided in this portion
of the state more than forty years.
Bradford never rode on a railroad
train, a steamboat, nor in an automo-
bile; never saw an electric street car
and never rode in a street car Of any
kind. Though able to read Latin and
German, he never attended school after
he was 5. He never sat for q photo
grapt, never was in a building in
which there was an elevator and never
had a razor put to his face always
trimming his beard with shears.
A few weeks prior to his death Brad
ford stated that he was born in Bos-
ton in 1898, his parents being Henry
and Elizabeth Bradford, who came
from England in 1852. When 5 years
old, his father and mother died and
he went to live with an uncle, Jere-
miah Bradford, near West Point, N Y.
This uncle, a year later, started west
The first stop was in Ohio, not far
from where Cleveland is now located
There they resided several years and
pushed farther west, the next stop be-
ing twenty miles south of Chicago.
AS settlers came in, the western fever
again seized the uncle and he emil
grated to Iowa, locating fifty miles
west of Davenport. Here the uncle
and aunt of Bradford died and more
than forty years ago he came to Ne
braska, settling in this locality, which
then was wilderness.
Bradford cast his first vote for Mon
roe for president. After that he voted
at every presidential election, though
never taking much interest in politics.
