L. A. Bradley, aged 38 years, died from consumption at his h0me, eight miles northeast of Sedalia, Sunday. Funeral services were held at Hopewell Church Monday afternoon and burial was made nearby. Deceased was a single man.

IN MEMORY OF LEE A. BRADLEY
The death angel has invaded the home of Bradley brothers, of Newland, Mo., and taken from their midst their oldest brother, Lee A. Bardley. He was born September 26, 1871, died April 4. He professed his faith and said he was prepared to meet his God, and was waiting for God to call him home to heaven.
The deceased leaves four brothers, Perry, of Colorado; Ira, Cephas and Henry, of Newland, mo. The funeral was held at the Hopewell cemetery, Rev. Zeb Thomas conducting the ceremonies. We extend our heartfelt sympathy to the bereaved brothers in their deep sorrow, and hope with them for a happy reunion with him in that beautiful "somewhere" where separation is unknown.

Among the dead their brother sleeps,
His life was rounded true and well,
And love in bitter sorrow weeps
About his darek and silent cell.

So let him sleep that dreamless sleep,
Our sorrows clustering round his head;
Be comforted, ye loved, who weep!
He lives with God; he is not dead.
--A. Friend.

Sedalia Democrat Jan 25, 1906--L. A. Bradley, a respectable industrious Pettis County farmer, was arrested last evening by Deputy Constable Elmer Smith, and lodged in the county jail, the officer charging Bradley with having disturbed the peace. Later Mr. Bradley was released from the jail on a bond signed by a number of Sedalia business men. Deputy Constable Smith claimed that Bradley had disturbed the peace at the White House Hotel, while under the influence of liquor. Messers Boswell and Ayers, proprietors of the White House informed the Democrat that Bradley did not disturb their peace, or that of any one else, while he was at the hotel. Rev. Ayers said Bradley's whole offense, if it could be called an offense, was to go to sleep at a table in the dining room. The sleeping man was awakened, and he left the place in a quiet and orderly manner. Rev. Ayers also stated that the officer was told that Bradley had created no disturbance, and they did not want him arrested. Officer Smith stated that Bradley used very profane language on the street after he had been requested to leave the hotel. The case was to have come up for trial this forenoon in Judge W. E. Conner's court, but Prosecuting Attorney C. C. Kelly after investigating the alleged facts regarding Bradley's arrest, declined to sign an information against Bradley, and Judge Conner dismissed the charges. Shain and Barnett have been consulted by Mr. Bradley and it is possible suit may be brought against Constable Changey and his bondsmen for false arrest and imprisonment.
