ALBERT BAnEy-Mr Albert Bailey OF Brad
ford, who has been stopping at the United States
hotel, Boston, died suddenly while In the reading
room at that house Mt ten minutes past twelve
o'clock Thursday morning OF last week. A ply
stefan was summoned and pronounced apoplexy
as the cause OF death Mr. Bailey was In the city
on business and was accompanied by his son.
lie was sixty.onc years old, prominent business
man, and director Of the bank in Bradford.
MRs MARY A. BARTLrrr-Mrs. Mary A., wife
Of Edward Bartlett, died In Painfeld November
9th, Of diphthera, aged thirty-six years, nine
months and twenty days. Sister Bartlett was
loved by all who knew her, she having lived a
life Of uprightness all her days, ready always to
help those in need Of help. But this did not sat
isfy her; there was an aching void that could not
be satisfied without Christ. At a meeting held
in the Methodist church in Planfed October
10th she gave her heart to the Lord, and from
that time until her death Christ was precious to
her She died in the triumphs Of faith, and has
passed on TO her reward. Sister Bartlett leaves
one child-a boy OF ten years-and kind hus-
band, mother, two brothers and one sister, who
deeply mourn her loss
Beloved II Ia well;
Though grief benght way,
twill make the JOY dear
That comes with dawnlng day.
"Beloved, II Ia WE'LL
The path that Jesus trod
Though rough and dark 1t be,
Leads home to heiven and God"
Mrs HENRY HowARD.-Mrs. Henry Howard,
daughter Of Harvey Ainsworth Of Calais, died In
Roxbury, October oath, aged thirty-four years.
The subject Of this notice resided in Calais until
her marriage with Mr.. Howard, which occurred
February 10th, 1874. Her time has been devoted
to educating the young, she having taught about
thirty terms her efforts In that direction proving
very successful. Some years ago she united with
the Christian church in Calais, and has ever been
in her place, living consistent Christian life with
a kind word and helping hand for all. We had
hoped that one so young, so useful, and having
so many kind friends to make her life pleasant
and happy, might be spared; but the grim mon.
ster has folded her in his embrace and her work IL
finished. Only a short time ago the family re-
ceived news OF the death OF older sister living
in Iowa, and while in their deep affection, feeling
as they did that their cup was full, another dror
was yet to be added. Kind friends sympathizt
with this mourning family; and may they be pre-.
pared to say, "Thy will be done" blessed are the
dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: yea
saith the Spirit, that they may rest from theil
labors; and their works do follow them"
