John M. Bailey, president judge of the Huntingdon, Mifflin and Bedford judicial district was announced Monday morning and caused not only surprise but profound and universal regret in the community. Although it was known that Judge Bailey's impaired health had unfitted for him close attention to his official duties, yet he was seen daily by his neighbors about his residence and office and sometimes upon the streets, and the suddenly fatal termination of his disease was wholly unlooked for. He was not more ill last evening than he had been for several days and his physician, who called to see him, left him in the night with the impression that his condition had improved. About 2 o'clock the judge went into his bath room and was soon heard by Mrs. Bailey to fall heavily to the floor. She went to his assistance and called for other help, but before further aid could come to her or to him the spark of life had fled and the honorable and useful career of the lawyer and jurist was ended. 1900 Huntingdon Ward 1, Huntingdon County census - John M.
