HORACE BAILEY MET ACCIDENTAL DEATH IN ATLANTA, APRIL 23

H.L. Bailey, age 36, a guard at the City Prison Farm on Key Road S.E., was 
suffocated on Friday at 10 a.m. in a cave-in while walking behind a tractor 
drawing an excavation. He was dug out within 12 minutes according to 
Superintendent H.H. Gibson, but failed to respond to treatment from the Fire 
Department and an ambulance crew from Grady Hospital, which arrived within 
20 to 25 minutes after the accident.

The excavation was being prepared for the boiler in the beating system for a 
new building under construction. Mr. Bailey is survived by his wife and one 
child. He lived on Fla. Shoals Road. The Atlanta Journal, April 24

Mr. Bailey was a son of Mr. and Mrs. T. P. Bailey of Wedowee, Ala. and was 
born and raised here and resided here until he finished school. His body was 
brought here Saturday. Funeral services were held at the Bailey home on 
Sunday afternoon at 2 o'clock. Interment took place Monday at 10 o'clock in 
the Masonic cemetery.

Horace was a fine young man, and his untimely death is deplored. He is 
survived by the widow, Mrs. Horace Bailey, formerly Miss Mildred Reaves of 
Heflin, and a young daughter Barbara Ann; his father and mother; three 
brothers and five sisters. The Wedowee Press, April 24
