"While we drop the sympathic tear over our departed friend let us reflect that he was a constant attendant and liberal supporter of the church through life, and at his death left a handsom sum for the support of the church; and a school for the benefit of future generations. He was a kind husband, constant friend and a christian. Let us all strive to emulate his example."
Capt. Ephraim Bradley was born in Connecticut in 1752, came here at an early date, and died in 1824. He left a fund of $1,000 to the Episcopal church in Lanesboro, and the same amount to the North Center school of this town.
