SOLOMON BRODY, proprietor of the Clymer Milling Company, has been a resident of Indiana county throughout the comparatively brief period of his residence in this country, and during most of the time has been settled at Clymer. He has the only flour and feed mill at that point, and has built up an extensive business in his line. Mr. Brody was born May 17, 1860, in Russia, son of Moses and Mary Brody, both also natives of that country, who are now deceased. He came to America in 1908, arriving at Philadelphia Dec. 8th, and continuing his journey direct to Indiana County, Pa. His first home here was at Starford, where he remained only a short time, however, thence moving to Heilwood, where he embarked in the general mercantile business. After a brief stay there he came to the borough of Clymer, where he bought the flour and feed business which he has since conducted. His son Abraham is now associated with him. They have a large and increasing trade, which Mr. Brody's good business methods and ability have won, and he has become one of the respected citizens of his adopted home. He was,a successful man in his native land, and has all the qualities which should insure prosperity, being thorough, conscientious' hard-working and intelligent, experienced, and a good manager. On Nov. 12, 1885, Mr. Brody was. married in Russia to Suba Chadas, a native of that country, whose parents, Abraham and Louisa Chadas, are both deceased.
