           [378]

           BRADFORD SLACK, merchant, at Ubly, was born March 25, 1852, in
        Oxford Co., Ont. He came to Bingham Township with his parents,
        JAMES and ABIGAIL (WOOLEY) SLACK, in 1867.  They belong to the
        farming community and are still residents of this township. SLACK
        was reared to the occupation of his father, and was under the pro-
        tection and influences of his paternal home until 20 years of age.
        On reaching manhood, he bought 80 acres of land on section 18,
        Bingham Township, which, like himself, remained to be tested in use
        and value. He at once set vigorously at work to clear and improve
        and erect a home. He proceeded with his efforts until he had accom-
        plished the reclamation of 50 acres, when he sold the place, a year
        subsequent to his removal to the village of Ubly. He established
        there the business he has since conducted, which includes two
        branches of trade, — general merchandise and a tin-shop. MR. SLACK
        owns four improved lots in the village.
           He is a Republican in political connection, and has discharged
        the duties of the minor local offices of his township. He is and
        has been considerably interested in school matters.
           His marriage to MARY ROSS occurred in 1872, in Bingham Township,
        and they are the parents of four children — ETTIE J., MARY A., GUY
        and MARTHA.  MRS. SLACK was born in Scotland, in 1852.  Her par-
        ents, JAMES and MARY (BARBER) ROSS, are farmers in this township,
        where the daughter was reared to womanhood.
