Mrs. Gen. Kelley, Mrs. Bruce. Mrs.
Kelley's mother, Mrs. Trock, of Cum

His remains will be taken to
Washington Sunday morning. The
interment will take place at Airing

General Kelley was as important
figure in the early part of the war
He was one of the men who made it
possible to divide Virginia and hold
the western part of the State in the
Union. 1t is not always remember
ed that the earliest struggle of the
war was for the possession of West
Virginia. 1t was there that Gen
eral Mcclellan first distinguished
himself, and there also that General
Kelley organized the first Union
