MRS. GEORGIANA BAILEY.

Mrs. Georgiana Bailey, widow of the
late Samuel Henry Bailey, and daughter
of the late James and Fanny Stevens,
died at the home of her son, James H.
Bailey, treasurer of the Fairfield Coun-
ty Savings bank, about 4 o’clock Tues~
day afternoon. Her death was as
peaceful as had been her life. A truly
good woman, her demise will be sin-
cerely mourned. The deceased was
born in New Canaan, and at the time
of he: death was in the 74th year of her
age.

She was a woman of queeniy manner
and of loyal character. Her earlier
and her later days'were passed in Nor.
iwalk, in which town, during both ex-
tremes of life, she has, by her graces
and virtues, adorned and dignified hu.
man living. Her married life was
largely spent in St. Louis, where her
husband and self were for many years
citizens. Her father’s ancestors were
well-known residents of that portion of
the province of New York that immedi-

.ately ad joined the Connecticut colony

line, and to this day the old family has
worthy representation in that section.
Her mother’s name was of familiar
Norwalk mention.

Four children survive her—Frank B.
Bailey, of New York; James H. Bailey
of this city; Mrs. Frederick R. San-
ford, of Riverside, and Mrs. Charles
De Hart Brower, .Of New York. The
funeral will be attended from her late
home On East avenue, this afternoon
at 2 O’clock, Revs. S. B. Pond and C.
M. Selleck, officiating.

Recollections of an Accident.

'i'he death of the late George C.

the coilision between a construction

the evening of October 22d, 1865. The
milk train was run through from Dan-
bury on the Danbury and Norwalk and
Consolidated roads to New York.
George C.-Stevcns was engineer on the
train and Daniel Persons,’ conductor.
Horace Wildman a Danbury hatter lost
hislir‘e. Stevens was not running the
locomotive but was seriously injured
in the back and face by jumping off
just before the collision occured. Per;
sons receiv'eda compound fracture to
his ankle and was' otherwise hurt.
Frank Louden'a brakeman‘ was badly
bruised about the head and shoulders,

of Simshury,

and Frank Hubbell anotherbrakeman', I

law-:1 his leg broken in two places.
Wildman was attempting to get out of
a window when the collision occurred
and he was jammed in a dreadful man-
ner, but survived until the next morn-
ing. .

 

Frazrantly Remembered.

When the Norwalk party sailed for

flowers, from the Woman’s club, with a
letter from each of the twenty-four
members of the club. Mr. Hill was

also in receipt of a basket Of flowers
from the directors of the National

spective mills for a renewal of operations
on Monday, July 22, and pay the rate of
wages current prior to the strike until
Dec. 1 next, at which time we agree to
pay the rates demanded by the weavers’

schedule dated June 1, 1895, and unless

this proposition be accepted and work re-
sumed on the date mentioned we hereby
declare our intention to close our respec-
tive mills and keep them closed until such
time as we consider it for our interests to
reopen them.” The notice is signed by
