w H. C. Dudley, now one of the
oity's prominent business men, was
born in Americas in 1872, being the
second son Of the late w. H. C. Dud-
ley, Sr., who came to Americas when
he was only five years old and re-
sided here during seventy-One years,
being one of the pioneer bankers of
this community and man highly
esteemed by hundreds of his unf1inch-
ing business integrity and elevated
moral standards. After receiving the
best education that private schools
here then accorded, w. H. c.. Dudley
went into the dry goods business first
as an employe of George D. Wheatley,
at a salary of $1,000 month. He
quickly established an enviable rep
utation as a clerk in the employ Of
Mr.. Wheatley, selling after limited
experience, as many goods as any of
the older clerks in the store. He re-
manned in his first position for five
years, advancing steadily during that
time, saving his money and planning
to get into business for himself.
In 1898, a period during which BIZ
cycles were even more popular than
automobiles now are, if this could be
possible, Mr.. Dudley entered that line
of trade, having then a sole capital of
five hundred dollars, but with an
Astounding faith in his own ability
and the future business of selling and

repairing bicycles, which is still a
department of his present big estab
lishment. he was one of the famous
trick bicycle riders of this section.
and attended many fairs and other
gatherings, where his ability as a
rider excited the admiring attention
of hundreds of people. In 1905 he
was recognized as the champion BIZ
cycle rider in Georgia, having at that
time won the state championship for
the one mile, having defeated the best
rider in the South at that time. In
establishing this record he won a
handsome gold medal, valued at
$500, which he still possesses, and
of which he is justly proud.
He has naver lost his interest in
bicycling as a sport, and even today
enjoys an occasional spin about the
city and even far into the country on
his trusty Columbia. In latter years,
however, he has devoted more of his
time to other pursuits, and has estab
lished here a splendid business, sell
ing annually thousands of dollars
worth of Victrolas, Grafonolas and
kodaks, a complete supply of which
he keeps always on hand He is own
err and manager of the Opera House
here, and during leach season brings
10 Americas a number of splendid
plays, the best of the road companies
visiting and playing at this house.
Mr.. Dudley is an inventor Of no
small merit, having secured several
patents among which were day
light developing tray" for the use of
photographers, printing cabinet"
for printing out paper, and rotary
out side shutter on a moving picture
machine This device, although not
patented, is now universally used by
all picture machines in the United
States. He is also among the first
men in Georgia to operate moving
picture show.
In 1901 Mr. Dudley married Miss
Lilly Jossey, of Americas, and to their
union have been born two handsome
sons, William Dudley, Jr., and James
Crawford, both of whom reside with
their parents at their pretty home on
Church street, the former being fiji
teen and the latter thirteen years of
age. MIR. Dudley is one of Americas
prominent business men, and in ad-
dition has large farming interests,

and was the first principal of the
schools here. He was named to this
Office in 1880 and remained in that
position until 1897, when he was
chosen superintendent of the schools,
a position which he now holds. Dur
ing the years 1911-12 he was mayor
of Americas, his administration be-
ing one of the most progressive in the
history of the city. During his ad-
ministration the concrete bridge over
the Seaboard railroad was construct
ed by that company as the result OF
representations made by the city au-
thorities. He is a Mason and also a
member of the knights of Pythias, and
