Herald - April 30, 1915 James E. Baily, age 74
years, 11 months and 13 days, a Civil War veteran
died at the family home on Powell Avenue,
Wednesday, April 28th. Paralysis, a stroke of
which he suffered several months ago added to the
infirmities of old age was the cause of death.
Deceased is
survived by his wife, a son and two daughters,
all of whom are married. The funeral was held
from the home of his son-in-law, Charles
Guttersohn, 232 N. Seminary, interment in
Glenwood. The local G.A.R. post and affiliated
organizations attended.
NOTE: The death
date on the stone differs from the obituary. The
cemetery sexton's records were used for the
dates. It was too late to change the date once
discovered. The obituary date is the correct one.
