My weight ran down to 130 pounds. Then I began to use Dr. King’s New Discovery, which completely cured I me.

Death of Dr. J. W. Bailey. Dr. J. W. Bailey 4ied at his home on E. Washington street last Thursday afternoon at two o’clock. Dr. Bailey*had been fail, mg in health for the past two years, having been confined to his bed for i two months. The funeral occurred at the First Baptist church last Friday afternoon at 3 o’clock, being attended by hundreds of his life friends. The services were performed by Bevs. Copeland, Ponder and Christian. The loving tribute paid the deceased by Rev. Copeland, was very beau tiful. Dr. Bailey was an active member of this church and beloved by everyone of its members. The bier in front of the pulpit was strewn with beautiful flowers, placed there by friends and rela tives. The interment occurred at Alta Vista. Dr. Bailey was known through out the South as one of its most successful physicians. He was born on the ‘27th of December, 1838, in North Carolina. While in his teens, his family moved to For syth county, Ga. It was there he began bis medical career, studying medicine under Dr. Ellis, afterwards attending one of the South’s fore most medicabcolleges. Immediate ly after his graduation," he enlisted in the Southern army. He began his military career in the civil war as Ist assistant sur geon in the Ist Regiment Georgia State troops. Ills aimy record was an excellent one. He came to Gainesville in 1869, establishing himself heie, and has since been looked up to as one of our stanchest and best citizens. He was married in Atlanta in 1 859, to Miss Georgianua Lat imer. He was one of the stanchest sup porters of Brenau. Always ready to lend a helping hand in any finan cial distress, and by his ev< r ready co-operation this institution has been built up to its present high standard. He owned extensive property in and about Gainesville. His last illness was due to the heavy amount of work he did, never relinquishing his efforts to render help to the sick. For over two years he had been suffering from a general break-down due to over work, and his death was not un locked for. Many has been the sickly babe that has been brought to Gaines ville especially for the attention of Dr. Bailey, that left cured and healthy. Dr. Bailey’s practice was not confined to Gainesville only, al though his work was done here. During his practice, his patients were distributed throughout the en tire South. Summing up all, he was one of the most successful men j in his profession. Dr. Bailey left no will. All of his property and estate, amounting to over SIOO,OOO, was left to his wife. He owned extensive property in Gainesville—one entire block, the one on which he lived, except ing the old Opera House and the Stringer building. He owned much propertv in Atlanta. In Dr. Bailey’s death, Gainesville loses one of its truest and best cit izens. The Maker taketh him that hath done good in this world, to meet his just reward in Heaven. A true servant of God and a helping hand to man was this grand charac ter. A noble personality and doer of good to all was he.
