1888 Obituary
It is with regret that we have to record the death of Mr George Adlam, of the firm of Messrs George Adlam and Sons, the melancholy event occurring yesterday morning at his residence, Sunnyside, Stoke Bishop.
The deceased gentleman, who was 75 years of age, was the founder of tbe extensive and important engineering works in Ellbroad street, and his connection with the establishment extends considerably over half a century. Of late years he has left the active management of the business to his two sons, Mr William Adlam and Mr Henry Adlam.
He was a Liberal in politics, and at one time took a prominent part in municipal and Imperial matters. He was highly respected in commercial circles, and regarded with esteem and affection by a large number of friends, who will learn with sorrow the news of bis demise after a short illness.
