WASHINGTON, D.. OF Jan: 9.-Judge
William D: Kelley, Of I Pennsylvania,
died here at 6:2O o'clock thise evening.
At his bedside were Mrs. Kelley, his
daughter, Airs. 7. o. Hortsman, bis sons,
VIM. D.IKelley, Jr., and "A. 4 B. Kelley,
DR.. Stanton and III. Weirick, his ;prurri-
vate secretary. His death was painless,
and to the watchers at Lis bedside, he
seemed to have fallen into 4 deep and
peaceful sleep. he was unconscious at
the last, as he had Ebeen at intervals
during the last two. days. His remains
will be buried at Laurel Hill cemetery,
Philadelphia. Al; RI iii:5. 81 3 II
Theimmediate cause OF J udge Kelley's
death, was intestinal catarrh, brought on
by q cold contracted during Christmas
week. For some years, however, he had
been almost Il constant sufferer from a
cancerous growth in the side of;his lace,
which was removed about six years ago
by asurgical operation. The relief thus
obtained was onlytelnporary, and since
that time 1T has developed SO rapidly
during the past year. that it must have
soon conquered him, had lie not earlier
fallen n victim TO the catarrhal affection.
He was nearly 10 years old, and during
the later years of his life his general
health has not been good, so that he
easily fell a victim to the Weakening in
auences Of disease. The funeral services
here will take place in the hall of the
House OF Representatives on Saturday
at noon. t3S Il
