MRS. BAILEY IMPROVES

The children of Mrs. William BAILEY were called to Birmingham yesterday, because she was at the point of death and friends in the city heard that she had died. This report, furnished to the Ledger, proved untrue and its publication is greatly regretted. Mrs. BAILEY is somewhat improved today.
