Attorney James A. Lynch, who filed the will, said tonight it was doubtful if Bradley left a cent. The Bradley Construction com- pany, of which he was president, went into receivership in 1918. Last September Bradley filed a voluntary petition in bankruptcy, listing liabilities at $2,553,520 and Thomas, a negro assistant United | States attorney, was unable to rent an apartment in a part of the city | where he desired to live with his wife and infant son so he"pyrchased a $200,000 seven story modern apartment house, he announced to- day. It is occupied by white families and is fully three blocks from the nearest section of the Harlem “Black Belt.” —————$ Envy is a kind of praise.
