Bringing shock, sorrow and grief to relatives and friends was the unexpected 
death around midnight last Wednesday evening of Mrs. Elmer S. Bailey of 
Camilla.  She had complained of a headache for a day or two but had gone about 
her regular duties and had viewed television that evening before retiring for 
bed.  The cerebral attack came a little more than an hour before her death at 
Mitchell County Hospital where she was taken.  Her husband, suffering from a 
heart ailment and now retired from his duties of the past thirty-five years as 
linotype operator at The Camilla Enterprise, was hospitalized following her 
death but was able to return home early this week.  Funeral services for Mrs. 
Bailey, age 47, the former Miss Dorothy Rivers, were held Friday afternoon at 
three o'clock at the Camilla Methodist Church.  The Rev. Orman Sloat, pastor, 
officiated and was assisted by the Rev. Edgar T. Davis, Jr.  Interment followed 
in Oakview Cemetery with Bramlett Funeral Home in charge of arrangements.  She 
was born in Mitchell County, daughter of the late Henry Burch Rivers and his 
wife, Emily Wilson Rivers.  She was a member fo the Camilla Methodist Church 
and took an active part in church affairs.  Survivors include her husband; a 
daughter, Mrs. Cal Jones of Camilla; a son, Billy Bailey of Atlanta; three 
brothers, H. H. Rivers of Miami, Fla.; J. W. Rivers of West Palm Beach, Fla.;
