W.W. Bailie Answers Call
William W. [allace] Bailie passed away at his home in Jackson Township, south of Bedford, on Tuesday, Dec. 13. Mr. Bailie was not known by many to be ill, and the announcement of his death came as a complete surprise as well as a shock. One day last week Mr. Bailie ate something that resulted in poisoning his system, probably a ptomaine. From the effects of this he died although symptoms of improvement were manifest for a few days.
He was born October 20, 1851, in Rose County, Ohio. In 1876 he moved to Taylor County and was united in marriage to Miss Nancy Hoover. To them six children were born, four of whom, Louis L., living on a farm near Conway, Mrs. Earnest Hamilton and Mrs. Roy Meikle, living on farms near Bedford, and Mrs. Walter McCormick of Amarillo, Texas, survive. They, together with a devoted wife, a mother, two brothers, Frank W. of Bedford, and George of Denver, Colo., and a sister, Mrs. Nels. Savage, of Salem, Ore., together with other relatives, mourn his death.
Mr. Bailie came here in an early day and watched the county developed from a sparsely settled wilderness to its present prosperity. In all that looked toward the betterment of the county and the country generally, he was found in the front ranks of its advocacy. He has always been active in politics and the people of his township have often called him to fill various offices for them. As a farmer he was prosperous; as a husband and father he was kind and indulgent, as a neighbor and friend he was beloved; he was a member of the M.E. church, and in all circles he will be sadly missed. Our sympathy goes out to the bereaved relatives.
The funeral services will be held Friday afternoon at 2 o�clock, conducted at Forest Grove church by his pastor, Rev. Fred N. Willis, and interment will be in Fairview Cemetery.
George Bailie arrived today to attend the funeral and Mrs. Bailie and Mrs. Savage are expected from Salem, Ore., before that time.
