| Mr.. Hardy was q successful busi-
ness man OF Atlanta, engaged in the
| electrical business. Having learned
that business in Boston. Mass, with
the Standard Electric Company, he
was put in charge of headquarters
Tor the South at Atlanta, and after
representing that firm for a number
| OF years he entered into the electrical
business for himself He was man
held IN high esteem in business and
social circles, and had a great num-
Der of friends.
Mr.. Hardy was nearly thirty-seven
years of age, having been born in
Vance county, n. c.. on the 18th of
March, 1874, the son of Captain Will
ham L. Hardy, formerly OF Norfolk,
Va, and grandson of the late Mr. H.

expected to die at any moment.
