years and twenty five days.
The funeral ives held at the house yes
terday forenoon at Il O'Clock, Rev. j. M.
Adams, pastor of the Congregational
church, OF which the deceased was mem
Der, officiating. Interment was at Wood
bine cemetery, where her first husband,
Henry Rollins, her daughter Helen NJ,
and her son Charles II. are buried. The
psIlbearers were Arthur W. Greedy, John
b. Redmsn, Hoyt II. Harden, and Edward
F. Robinson, and the funeral arrsnge-
ments were in charge of Curtis r. Foster.
Mrs. Bailey was one OF the niue chill
dren- three sons and six daughters-of
Thomas and Joanna Morrill, of New burg.
She was born February 20, 1892. Her
childhood was spent upon her fathers
farm. She attended the village school,
and afterwards an academy In Bangor,
with a view to becoming teacher.
While teaching In Holden In 1852, she
met and was married to Henry Rollins.
they moved to Ellsworth In 1854. Mr..
Rollins died in April, 1868. In January,
1863, the widow was married to Moses
Hale. Mr.. Hale died in the summer of
1872. The following year she moved to
Boston, where she met and was married,
In 1875, to William Bailey.
Mr.. Bailey was northern man who had
gone Sonth before the war, and 10 w heel
ing, West Virginia, had, during and i'm
mediately after the war, acquired a COM
peteuce in iron manufacturing. Shortly
before his marriage he had retired from
active business, and had returned North.
They went to Melrose, Mass, where they
lived until Mr.. Bailey's death in 1893
Mrs. Bailey spent most OF the past Gig bit
years in travelling, spending two years in
Europe, one winter in the South, and one
on the Pacific coast. For the past two
years she had made her home in Boston,
spending most OF the warm seasons among
relatives and friends in Ellsworth and
elsewhere in Maine.
Up to within two years Mrs. Bailey was
remarkably welt preserved woman, re-
tanning her youth to an uncommon
degree. Then she was seized with the
maisdy--s csncer--from which there is
rarely an escape. In the fall of 1899 she
submitted to an operation, aud survived
it. But last fall the disease reappeared.
She WAS brought to Ellsworth late last
December, after expressing desire to
pass the remaining days in her old home.
The end came as she had wished, peace

George Morrill,, of Nevada, and Edgar
Morrill,, of Hastings, Michigan, and two
sisters-Mrs. Waldron A. Spinney, of San
Francisco, Cal, aud Mrs. Sidney Hart, of
Detroit, Michigan, survive.

Senator Allison and Representative
Hepburn, of Iowa, firing of the many
misrepresentation of the reasons for
the return to the United States of
Minister Conger, have given out an
authoritative statement, based upon
Information obtained personally by
them from President Mckinley and
Secretary Hay. This statement may
be thus briefed: Minister Conger is
coming home on leave of absence,
asked for by himself; his conduct Of
Che important negotiations in Picking
have been entirely satisfactory to
President Mckinley, and so far as the
President or secretary of state knows,
Mr.. Conger intends to return to his
post at Picking at the expiration of his
leave of absence. If he does not, it
will simply be because he does not
wish to do so.
