SureIy Not Miss Bailey.

There are rumors af1oat in Mexico
that Miss Nellie Bailey, who lived in
this city up to within two months ago,
is the same person as Mrs. Nellie
Strickland, who, the telegraph dis
patches from Newton, Kas., IN the
metropolitan papers claim, was ar
rested not long since for attempting
to poison her sister-in-law and who,
about 10 years ago, it is claimed, was
arrested for numbering her husband.
Miss Nellie Bailey, while in Mexico,
boarded with some of our most prom
inent families and later at the Ringc
Hotel. She was a very wealthy lady
and while here she united with one oil
the Mexico churches and made many
friends. She appeared to be a woman
of fine character and deported her
self in a most becoming manner. Az
the LEDGER understands the matter
she came to Mexico from St. Louis,
and there surely a be no connec
ton between the two people.

Mrs. John M, Gordon Dead.

MIS-. Juuu H. oO1uVh oC0os
Mrs. John M. Gordon, widow of the
late John M. Gordon, ex-Prosecuting
Attorney of Audrain County, died at
the home of her brother, John Luckie,
east of Mexico, at 8 O'Clock Sunday
night. She was about 65 years old at
the time of her death, the immediate
cause of which was paralysis. For
some years she had been an invalid
and about ten days ago she had the
misfortune to fall out of a rocking
chair and break one of her limbs.
From that time on she sank rapidly
until she closed her eyes Sunday night
to open them on a fairer scene, a Sun
day in paradise.
The funeral was held at the resi-
dence of Mr.. John Luckie Monday
afternoon at 2:30 O'Clock and the re-
mains were laid to rest in the Mexico
Cemetery, whittier they were follow
ed by a number of sorrowing friends.
Mrs. Gordon was a most estimable
woman and was well known in this
city, where she lived until about a
year ago. She was a charter member
of the Baptist Church here and was
indeed a true Christian in all her
works. The LEDGER joins the com.
munity in extending to her relatives
and friends sincere sympathy.
