THE LATE BRO , INSPECTOR BRADSTOCK . Pew events have created a greater amount of public interest than the melancholy fate and untimel y death , at the hands of a murderer , of our late brother , Inspector Bradstock , of the A Division of Police , ivhich took place a feAV days ago , amidst the deep sympathy and regrefc of
every one Avith whom he had been associated or had the pleasure of his acquaintance . It will be remembered some time since a man named Smith was taken to the King-street Station , Westminster , for wilfully breaking tAvo drinking-glasses Avhilst in a state of drunkenness , and to this station our deceased brother had for years been attached . When the man was in the cell he
requested to be supplied Avith some Avater , and , Avhile Inspector Bradstock AVas engaged in an act of kindness and mercy in administering to his Avants , this ruffian took the advantage of inflicting Avith a pair of scissors those wounds which , after a lingering and painful illness , terminated in his death on Monday morning , the 1 st of June , at the age of 46 , amidst the sorrowing feelings of
a large circle of friends . Bro . Bradstock had been in the Metropolitan Police for _ up-vards of twenty-five years , during the Avhole of which time he won the good opinions of all who knew him , and , ivith no other recommendation than his OAVU merits and generous good nature , he arrived at the rank of inspector—an office Avhich he filled to the entire satisfaction of every one over whom he had authority , or who had the privilege of being numbered amongst his friends .
