Bradford, Ira B
lawyer, banker, legislator, was born June 24, 1851, in Fulton, Wis. He graduated from the New Hampshire conference seminary, and attained eminence as an able lawyer of Augusta, Wis., of which city he has been mayor. In 1880 he was a member of the Wisconsin assembly; and the following year was made speaker of that body. He can trace his lineage back to the celebrated Gov. Bradford of the Massachusetts colony; and the republicans of Chippewa Valley have abiding faith in the future of Mr. Bradford, and insist that he will yet be made governor of Wisconsin.
