Mr. Bryner was married in the town of St. George, where he was born, in the year 1881, to Miss Maria Pace and to this union have been born eleven children, only three of whom are living. Albert Bryner came to Carbon County in 1884 and has ever since that time been active in the upbuilding of the religious and business life of the town. He has for the past thirteen years been actively engaged in the management of the Price Co-operative Mercantile Institution and has assisted materially in making that concern the flattering success we find it today. He has served one term as county assesor, two terms as county treasurer, one term on the council, one term as city treasurer and was for four years probation officer of Carbon County. For thirteen years he was first counselor to Bishop E. S. Horsley and has held the bishopric of Price ward for the past five years, proving a zealous and faithful shepherd to his flock. No man is Carbon County can say aught against the character, honesty or ability of this successful man and he has accumulated anough of this worlds needs to stamp him as a man fit to administer the business of Carbon County. There is little doubt of his election next Tuesday.
