George w. Bromley.

George W. Bromley who died at his
home in Jewett City Friday, Decem-
Der %, 1911. of nervous dyspepsia, aft
er an illness of about a year. was the
son Of Orrin p. and Mary (Burdick)
Bromley of Griswold. He was born
on the farm now known as the Arba
Browning farm. March 10. 1872. Some
years later his father purchased the
farm now owned by Albert ID. Crary
m the same ueighborhood, which was
his home until manhood.
His education was obtained at the
old red schooIhouse of the Pachaug
district, which stood at the forks of
the road near the present residence of
James E. Crary.
In early youth he was trained to in
dustry and practiced it in the employ
of the farmers of the neighborhood
until maturity.
The spirit of patriotism on the
breaking out of the civil war was most
ardent in his family. Two Of his
brothers had already entered the ar
my when in August, 1862. George en-
listed in the Eighteenth regiment. Co.
E, Connecticut volunteers, for term
of three years. He was wounded and
taken prisoner at the battle of Win
chester, June Is, 1853. The following
October he was exchanged, returned
TO his regiment and completed the
term of his enlistment.
He was mustered out June q, 1865.
on his return from the army Mr..
Bromley took up the trade of his
youth-farming, and followed it in
GrisWold and neighboring towns for
term of years.
on the 18th of March, 1877. in Nor
wich, George w. Bromley and Harriet
ID. Baker were joined in marriage by
Rev. Mellen Howard Some years aft
er their marriage Mr.. and Mrs. Brom-
ley took up their residence in Jewett
city. where they have lived ever since
During the early years of this resi-
Gence Mr.. Bromley acted as janitor Of
the public school building, and later
as janitor at the Slater library, which
position he filled as long as his health
would permit.
In 1891 he joined the Methodist
Episcopal church of this place, Of
which at the tine of mis- death he was
both steward and trustee.
Mr.. Bromley was possessed of
wonderful and accurate memory, and
he abounded in interesting reminis-
cences Of his schooldays. and of the
old families in Pachaug with whom
he was SO well acquainted He early
developed musical gifts and TO his last
days music was his great delight He
was rich in the cardinal virtues. Es-
pecially was he known for his ster-
ling honesty; for his generosity that
was limited only by his means. and
for his fsithfulness and conscientious
ness in whatever he undertook.
He is survived by his wife, with
whom he lived most happily nearly
thirty-five years; by five brothers,
Dwight of Westerly, Orrin of Preston,
Andrew, Frank and Charles of New
Britain, and two sisters, Mrs. Mary

Mass. instead Of being done here as
formerly.
The entire local plant, however, has
been running unusually steady for this
