The old Bailey building at corner
of Main and Water streets, 10Y about
to be demolished or removed to give
way to the new automobile establish
ment was built by Judge Bailey, faith
er of the late D. w. Bailey and Mr..
William Jones, about the year 1878.
1t was occupied as the L. S. post office
until the winter of 1928 when the
Office was removed to the corner of
Court and Johnson streets, where Nc
Cormmach garage now stands. Lot
Livermore was postmaster in those
days and Horace E. Bickers was as
sistant postmaster. Judge Bailey
was a lawyer, justice of the peace
and county Judge. After the removal
of the p~ostoffice the building was used
by Mrs. Crane as a dressmaking shop,
and later Mr.. Bailey had an office in
the building, and until very recent
years the lower floor has been utilized
only by temporary occupants and by
the Hotel Pendleton for sample
rooms. The small building immedi-
ately to the east, which is also now to
disappear, is an older structure and
was the Bailey law office in his prime.
1t was later the law office of Peter
West of divorce fame, and of j. E.
Miller, who flourished here in the nj
neties. For a short time after the re-
moyal of the postoffice some of the
older citizens are of the opinion that
there was a hardware store located in
the building.-Pendleton Tribune.

AFTER SLEEP OF CENTURIES
scclesiastic May Be Said to Have Re-
turned to Earth for a Few
Brief Moments.

There was a little gathering In the
green graveyard of an old priory
church. There was the rector and an
old antiquary In rusty black, a few
neighboring squireS, the county police
sergeant, the sexton and a laborer or
two, while an ancient stone coffin, re-
Gently unearthed, lay ON the ground.
"Who do you suppose 1t is, profess.
SOr?" inquired the rector.
The old man in black polished his
glasses and adjusted them carefully.
1T must be Thomas DeBoehm's," he
said. "Thomas who was prior here in
the time of Henry III, about 1920. But
we shall see"
A hush fell on the group as the men
set to work With hammer and chisel.
"All ready the sexton reported
presently. They took off their hats and
the policeman removed his helmet. The
ponderous lid was slowly pushed aside
and they were gazing at the calm,
strong lace or an eccleSlaStlc IN ITCH
silk vestments, wrapped in his 700
years sleep.
"Yes, it's Thomas" murmured the
professor, with the air of n recog-
nizlng an old friend. VERY like the
contemporary portrait on the vellum.
As they continued to gaze, spell
bound, a weird thing happened. The
vestments gradually lost their color
ing and then all that the coffin con
tanned crumbled before their eyes to a
mere handful of ashes.
"Dust to dust" whispered the rec
tor.
Very subdued and silent the little
company Observation-Disclosures Times.

face, that of a man about forty. an
unforgettable face with a red scar
across the left cheek. He raised one

sprang up and walked hastily away
along the park path. Wondering
what 1t was all about. I watched him
out Of sight around a turning Of the

apartment house where In q few min

Of the house and walked slowly to-

hesitated. She seemed to be debating
whether to continue on down the I'VE

I was sitting. AS she drew nearer l
observed her with interest. for she
was n Of the p~rettiest girls / ever

ankles, her carriage, everything about
her suggested the patrician.- Her face,
rosy and youthful, was set of by q
jaunty feathered toque. from under

eyes, shaded by long lashes, looked
out above a dainty nose, just q bit
