(Kincardine News)
The final.` renting 'ace of the
late Nathaniel Bradley who died
sane thirty-two yearsago has
definitely been established much
to the .gratification of William'
L. Simmons of Royal Oak, MJch-
igen, who, at seventy-four, re-
calls 'how 'Mr. Bradley had .,be-•
friended him as a youth in Wes-
tern Canada..
As reported a few ' weeks ago,
Mr. Simmons was looking for
the graTe of his benefactor so!
that he .could erect a memorial.
on 'the • site. First clue to the
,. query came, from Mrs. James
Ferrier of • Bervie, who while.?
looking through some. old rec-
or+dss noted Bat a Nathaniel
Bradley had been buried at
aide in 1932 and the :of
ficiating cleityman was Rev.
(njw. Bishop) ,H. F, • Appleyard
Of 'St. John's Anglican Church.'
A call by -the News to Mr.
'William Scott caretaker' of the
Laugside • •cemetery brought ver-
ification and Mr. • Scott .. quite
easily riled the funeral - and
advised thrat the - ate Mr. Brd
• 1eyy 'was -buried in the "Pennell,
Plot." !Further information was
That h . nephew William Norma

Uncle, Mr. Pennell stated that
the Hate Mr, .Bradley. was his
mother's brother and .t a t it was
to her home that Mr. • Bradley
was .' heading after he •lost his

Going back to another gen-
enation• Mr. Pennell has: a watch.
wrnich ,belonged to. Nathaniel's
father Stephen Bradley which
the ptesent owner slates is the
only Watch ever' awarded by a
Canadian government for' brav-
