Looking back over the history of a community, there are u.sually a few lives which stand put above the many thousands who come and go/ Perhaps it is success which marks By W* P.

In short, he _ was probably respon sible for and directly behind more building in Clinton, in a wider variety them as unusual, perhaps it lis elo-|of activities, than any former citizen, quence or wealth, or any of a number i He served on the Board of Trustees of qualities'. In most instances, how- Qf most of Clinton’s institutions. ever, such lives exemplify either an exceptional friendliness or outstand ing qjialities of leadership. Catoius Mercer Bailey exemplified In hif life these two qualHie* as few ciitiz^ of Clinton have. As I a leader, he was eeseniially a builder, A>uilding for the future upon “bed Wk,’’ building the fundamentals of a constructive, serviceable’ life. Mr. Bailey’s qualities of leadership assure him A position among the all- time, all-atar citizens* of Clinton’s History. He was during his life asso- oiatod with as many varied Clinton in terests as any other Clinton Citizen. His activities In public works set him^standing qualities of leadership. Clin- iiswmRfc apart as a citizen of unique qualities and outstanding accomplishments. As a member of the Board of Trus tees of Presbyterian College, he was one of the principal causes of its spec tacular program of construction which add^ much new equipment to its campus. The physical plant of the college, it will be remembered; grew more rapidly under the leadership of Dr. Douglas than any other. It will also be remembet^ that C. M. Bailey was an intimate friend or Dr. Douglas. He„ supplied much of the inspiration, advice and finances that built'the col lege to ita present position. Mr. Baliey was a member of the Board of Trustees for over twenty-five years, and during that time he served for a number of years as Chairman of the Finance Committee of the Board.'

Having mixed the yolks of eight eggs with his temperfi colors, he couldn't bear to see the whites wasted, so he drank them all at once! . . . The doc’tor'nearly knocked him down. was In the industnal field, his greatest building monument is at Lsrdia, whes^ he not only built a great manufactut- ing plant, but also a beautiful aniii complete village, . including horned, strerts, store, churches, school, play ground, etc. " t. C. M. Bailey was an outstanding builder, and contribute a great dedl to-the development of Clinton, a^ strangely enough he has not for years been a citizen of the town, living out side of the incorporate Umita. . _ He was imbued with a building spirit, and in his efforts displayed out ton will evqr remember him, for his mark w in<Mibly stamped upon every somer of the city. As his building spirit has impressed itself physically upon the city, just so has his beauitful spirit of friendli ness made its mark upon the hearts of Clinton people. He was the friendliest of the, friend ly. Everybody loved ^r. “Cad” Bailey.' He probably had more friends at the time of his dMtb than any man or woman in^Mnton. High and low, rich or poor, educated and illiterate loved him, for his heart was big and he seemed able to select the .very best that was in each individual and magni fy it. ^ The great mass of floral offerings at his funeral tf^fied to the affec tion with which he was held locally and afar. The enormous number of t^egrams of sympathy and the huge equally as impressive.

They may have come from the Rolls Renting company—which seems to; be making a bid with greater swank, for some of the business that the sixteen cylindei Cadillacs have been Siting. One of the funniest of this crazy New York’s neurotics is the husband of a'newly famous actress, an artist. He got the idea so thoroughly fixed that he had a bad heart that he de veloped the habit of reading obitu aries, and nearly fainted each time he read of anyone near his own age dy ing of heart failure. - served on the-OrphaMge Board he had an acCive part in the erection of many of the institution’s buildings. Similarly he played an important part in th^ erection of the Masonit Temple. From its beginning he was one of the largest stockholders. With the First Presbyterian Church of Clinton one finds perhaps Mr. Bailey’s greatest monument in the elegant new church and Sunday school building. Mr. Bailey was Chairman of the Building Committee which planned and built the church, and raised and collected mq^ of the money therefor. It was his inspiration, pro* greseive spirit and devotion to the church that were largely responsible for the success of the ej^rprise. As a member <rf the meal bosud of public school trustees, he was similar ly instrumental in the erection of a number of Clinton’s public ' school buildings. He enthusiastically sup ported the progressive program of Su perintendent Witherspoon, which was responsible for the erection of the High School, Florida Street, and Bell Street schools, and the Improvements added to the Academy ^Street school building, and he erected the Lydia Mill school as well.
