DEATH OF SERGEANT BRADLEY Many hearts were saddened last week when it became known through out the city that Sergeant Levi Brad ley, for twenty-two years a resident of Omaha, had been called to the Great Beyond. He was a man beloved by all who knew him, one who walked upright be fore the world and was ever ready to lend a helping hand to those in need or a word of cheer to those in distress. Shortly after coming to Omaha he became a member of Zion Baptist church, when he was made treasurer! and ordained as deacon, and was still holding the office of deacon when he ; departed this life. He was bom in Sumter, S. C., in 1846. At an early age he enlisted in the United States army and served so l honestly and faithfully that his dis charge papers are filled with the high est words of praise and esteem that could be said of any one, regardless of race, creed or color. On each one of his re-enlistment papers his com manding officer says that he reposes special trust and confidence in the pa triotism, valor and fidelity of Mr. Bradley and considers him worthy of any position or honor that may be given him. His life as a citizen was on inspira tion to all those who knew him. His daily exertions were ever in the direc tion of promoting the happiness of his fellow man, both here and hereafter. He was a living demonstration of the truth that he who lives rightly for others rather than for himself is most certain of happiness here and peace hereafter. Funeral services wrere held at Zion Baptist church at 11 a. m. Sunday, August 24, after which the body was taken to Fort Crook for interment. The impressive ceremony of the United States aimy was carried out and all honors due those who serve their country faithfully were given him. In short, it ma^J)e said of him, as was said of one of old, that such an one went not unhonored to his grave. “He lived that no regrets should rise To gather ’round his future years; He let no neglected moments pass To check his flight to higher spheres.” SONS AND DAUGHTERS OF JERUSALEM MEET The twenty-fourth annual session | of the supreme grand council of the j Fraternal Order of the Sons and Daughters of Jerusalem is being held here this week.
