Geo. R. Bready Dies at HaTpeTs Ferry.

Mr.. George K. Bready, General man
ager of the pulp and paper mills at
Harpers Ferry, President of the Bank
of Harpsrs Ferry, and one Of the
leading business men of that town
died at his home there Wednesday
morning, after an illness of nine
weeks from diabetes. The disase was
an old enemy and had disturbed in
previous attacks which his physician
was able to control, but the last at
tack baffled five eminent physicians
some of them the best specialists.
Mr.. Bready was native Of Baltl-
more and came to Harpers Ferry
when a young man as ticket agent for
the b. & o. Railroad Company. He
soon developed a genius for handling
large affairs, and rose early to the po-
sition of general manager of the Har-
pers Ferry Paper Company and the
Shenandoah Pulp Company, two Of
the most important Industries In that
section of the county. At the time
of his death he was also president OF
the Bank of Harpers Ferry, and the
Light and Power Company of that
town.
He was distinctly a family man
devOtlng the fruits OF MS business
success to making his home beauti-
full and surrounding his family with
wholesome comforts of life.
The greater part of his time was
spent at his home-of evenings in
his library where he was surrounded
by the latest editions from standard
works, as also the best weekly and
monthly magazine literature and daily
paper, and here is where he entertain
ed his friends.
He was charitable and no worthy
cause appealed to him for help with
out receiving liberal support. Fishing
was his outdoor sport for which he
was amply equipped. He was in his
sixtieth year when he died.
Surviving are his widow, son Eu-
gene his principal assistant in his
business, daughter Mrs. c. w. Marsf
of Chicago, son Gordon r. Bready
in the Motor Truck Service, Unit 48I
Camp Merritt, N. j., and daughter
| Dorothy Benton at home, also hi'
father, G. C. Bready residing on Camp

 Three weeks ago today the enemy began his terrific at tacks against fftymle front His objects to parate the French to take the Channel ports and destroy the British Army.
 In spite of throwing already hundred and six div sions (about 900 mem into the battle and enduring the most reckless sacrifice of human e he has yet made lit tie progress toward his goals.
