ONCf LIVED IN THIS~CITY.
Capt. Bray, Who Died In Atlanta
Practiced Law In Cartersville.
Capt. Welborn Bray died in
Atlanta last Sunday afternoon.
His death was from a stroke of
apoplexy. He lived in Carters
ville when a young man shortly
previous to and up to the war,
having come here from Calhoun.
He taught school here and prac
ticed law for a short time as a
partner with Maj. P. H. Larey.
Capt. Bray was an uncle of Miss
Nena Mitchell, who often visits the
city.
The Atlanta Constitution says
of him:
“Captain Bary was educated at
the University of Georgia and
Emory College and was an alumnus
of the latter institution. He be
came a man of deep learning and
was very widely read. He entered
upon the practice of law at Cal
houn, Ga., and rapidly won suc
cess and was widely known as an
orator of ability. The people of Gor
don county chose him as their
representative in the secession con
vention and he participated in the
deliberations of that famous body.
Captain Bray was an intrepid con
federate soldier, serving four years
in the field as captain of a battery
of artillery. After the war he be
came an educator and conducted a
school for boys in Atlanta, in
which many prominent citizens
were educated.
“In 1874 he reentered the practice
of law. He achieved success par
tict larly as an eloquent criminal
advocate and was engaged in many
celebrated cases. He won reputa
tion especially in the defense in the
famous Sam Hill case. From 1886
to 1888 he represented Fulton
county in the general assembly.
From ISB7 to 1897 he was a mem
ber of the board of education of
Atlanta.”
