HERBERT BRADLEY—FOR THE HISTORICAL RECORD.

HERBERT BRADLEY—FOR THE HISTORICAL RECORD. Alice Bradley’s first husband said that Herbert would not stand out in a crowd of two, which may demonstrate that the husband was preoccupied with outward show. Herbert Bradley was a remarkable man. He was a self-made man. He left home in Canada as a young man. Years later, he sent an inquiry to his family about whether he should visit. The answer was: don’t bother to come. Herbert was an African explorer and animal collector in the twenties and took his wife and his six year old daughter with him on safari. My mother said that Herbert had tasted human flesh prepared by the cannibals. She said that he thought it tasted something like chicken. She also said that the cannibals thought that the flesh from the hand was the greatest delicacy. Herbert was a practical man. Throughout Africa and everywhere else, even into his eighties, he always carried a sewing kit.
