Newspaper Obituary - Saturday, September 24, 1910 The Oswego Daily Palladium - Oswego, New York - Death Came Suddenly ¬George W. Bradner, a Well Known Lawyer of Mexico Dropped Dead Last Night - Mexico, September 24 - While standing in the hall of the Mexico House conversing with a party of friends last night George W. Bradner, a prominent member of the Oswego county bar and for many years a resident of this village, dropped to the floor unconscious and expired before the arrival of a physician. Mr. Brander had displayed no symptoms of serious illness, although he had not been in the best of health for the past month. Wednesday he went to Oswego, where he appeared in a matter before Judge Rowe at Chambers and appeared to be in good health. He was born in the town of Richland and when a young man moved to Mexico, where he has made his home. He was one of the best known lawyers in the county and was the author of standard books on evidence and other matters. Of a fraternal spirit, he was a member of many organizations and enjoyed an acquaintance throughout this part of the country such as comes to few men. He was a member of the Mexico Lodge, F. and A.M., Lake Ontario, No 165, R.A.M.; Lake Ontario Commandery, No. 32, K. L. Media Temple, Mystic Shrine, and of the Mexico Lodge of Odd Fellows. He is survived by two sisters, Mrs. Susan Davis and Mrs. Clara Graves, of Oswego; one brother, F. J. Bradner, of Seattle, and ten nieces and nephews. Coroner Vowinkel was notified of the death and left on the 9:20 train to make an investigation. Coroner Vorinkel issued a certificate today that Mr. Bradner's death was due to a stroke of apoplexy. He was on his way to his room about 10:00 p.m. and he had just reached the stairs in the hall when Landlord See heard the fall and going to the prostrate man, saw that he was unconscious. There was a twitching of the facial muscles, and the end came before the arrival of Doctor Mowry. Mr. Bradner had seemed unusually well yesterday, and both at dinner and supper ate heartily. His sudden death has cast a gloom over the entire village.
