"James G. Pritchard, dean of Ithaca's automobile dealers, died at his home, 223 South Albany Street, today. He was 88 years old.
Mr. Pritchard retired several years ago. A carriage builder by trade, he came here from Margate, England, his birthplace, to head the firm of Pritchard, Edward & Sullivan. After the retirement of Mr. Sullivan and the death of Mr. Edwards, the place was operated solely by the senior member of the firm. Later he organized and headed the firm now known as J.G. Pritchard & Sons."
