BRADLEY, proprietor of the Bradley Hotel, Culver, Marshall county, is a native of Woodstock, Canada, born on the 8th of February, 1878, son of Daniel A. and Margaret J. (McNutt) Bradley, both of whom were born and reared in the Dominion, and are at present residents of Culver. In 1889, when eleven years of age, Edwin I. came with his parents to the town named, receiving his education in its public schools and at the Culver Military Academy. Thereafter he spent a year in railroad work, and passed some time in the west. His marriage occurred September 28, 1901, to Lucinda M. Baker, a daughter of J. J. S. and Almina (Taylor) Baker, and their child, Milford D., is now four years of age. Mr. Bradley was in business with his father for two and a half years, after which he assumed the independent hotel venture, in which he has been so successful. His house contains thirteen rooms, is well-arranged, modern in equipment, and an institution of which the town is proud. Mr. Bradley and son are erecting an annex to their hotel, dimensions being twenty-eight by one hundred feet, for the purpose of placing therein one of the most approved bowling alleys found in the state, at a cost of $3,000. They are gentlemen of much business ability, and the excellent location of their property, within a short distance from the Pennsylvania depot and the banks of the beautiful Maxinkuckee lake, will make their resort one of the most popular in the vicinity of the lake. Their guests will find these gentlemen and the attaches of the hotel most courteous at all times. Besides the hotel, they keep in stock the best brands of cigars, tobaccos, candies, fruits, ice cream and all soft drinks. We bespeak for them signal success in their business. He is a member of the Masonic order, in good standing, being identified with the blue lodge, and is an earnest Republican who votes according to the personal fitness of the candidate, but has never aspired to office himself. Whether as a businessman or a citizen, in his civic relations to the community, he enjoys the highest reputation for integrity, reliability and broad intelligence.
