.of Anna Bafler.
Vied. iu Groton;Ct.. January 10, Isz,l. Mrs. An
na Bailee, relict hi Capt. Elijah. Bailey, aged 02..
Mt Bailey's name has been so widely spread
over the Union, and she bas been personally known
to so many individuals, that her lire becomes a part
of our domestic histori ; and I ,Ow at the Lim. , her
decq.ue a simpie narrative of the leading incidents
of her story cannot be inappropriate. -
' she was born on the 11th of October, 1'75P,.

grea:er part of 1. in; men around her, she was the
s ife of ;the ]ate Cap'. Elijah Ftailev, a soldh-r of
the Ilevntution, and for nearly 40 years PO, , t MaS

Witv4er, Wirt a native of Stafrord,- Conn.—
I it. came lo Nekt London, a young lad, for the pur
po-e. of allowing the and for a number of
years sailed front this port. Her mother Was Elan.
nab Mills, daughter ofibhu Mills, an emigrtuit fmm
Boston, who had settled in Groton and married it
osughte.r of the tirst Jonathan Starr of that place.
bier parents had been Vint a few years married,
when they both died of the email pox within ten
days of each other, leaving two children of whom
At . ina was the oldest. The wile had been taken
sick . a few tlayibefore the husband expected to de
part sal a voyage; he remained to'nurse her—saw
her tamed and than set sail, but died of the disor
der taken from his wife, five days from land. MN,
Nile*, when over 80 years of age. shed tears abun
dantly its she related the circumstances attending
the death of her parents. The grave of her moth
. cr apoeared to be a sacred spot in her estimation;
often she said when a child she had gone to weep
over it, and added- - My father's mother came
down from Stafford to see its: she went with us to
my mother's grave, and I think I see her now, as
she stood lamenting and crying -,•0 that my son
had been buried here in the green earth, instead of

sea give up its deadf "
The eloldien were brought up by their grand
mother Mills, who had married a second ltakaad,
flier cousin James Starr,) and during the Revolu
tionary war - this couple, considerable advanced
in life, were living about three miles front Groton
Bank, in the woods, as it was styled by MN. Bailey.
Two sons of the first martiage, James aud ,12dward
Mills—the latter with his wife and two children,
one of them a hub, dv a f--
with them.
The women of that day vied with the men in
their passiooate love of liberty and dread of Eng
in rule. Anna Warner was a character for the
EVen in- her secluded home she caught
the fire of the nation and nourished it into a flame.
she was one of those who carry every idea and
feeling-to an extreme s and do nothing by halves.
When independence was declared, "ti he was old
snutigli to take a deep interest in that, :,rest act of
her county, and during the seven years' conflict
that sneceded, the argressions of the enemy were
so indelibly marked in her mind as to give a color
ing to her whole life. She would often remark in
latter days, that the women of the Revolution were
greater patriots than the men, and that they were
. . . .
*acre, had so ervbittered her retentive feelings that
I she could never ape): of the British maims withopt
; Fonts vituperative edittiet. What, therefbre Elie
' last -war with Great Britain broke•out, she Was
ready for the emergence. She gloried in thelie--
. aeration of War of 181:2. ablaut as much as- iii the
Declaration of ludependence of '76. Her cordial.
menners, and her vehern'ent political predilection*
and antipathies, made her house a noted partiSiiit
• resort, and its mistress a noted 'personage. Oft
, cars and soldiers of both army and navy frequented
her dwelling, and met with a warm hearted hoSpi- . ,
tility that made her threshold appear to them
more like a home than a 'tavern.
But the wide notoriet-r of Mrall3ailey is founded:
on a single incident which happened' in the sum
; mer of 1813—an incident coarse and halicraua in
I itself, but which has lean widely circulated, and
• yet so new!) uuare frequeatly alluded to than ac
tually told, drat a simple derail of the facts seems
. raquisite.. The aquadron of Commodore Decatur
-'had -been rhat a aal into New Loudon harbor by a
supatier British fleet; and an attack' upon the
; town was momentarily expected. It was bfgreat
importance. that the fort of Grotes Height: *Mould
be immediately prepared for a vigeroes defence,—
Major
Simeon Smith, with a hand of volunteers
from -New London, hastened to the yeinforcerneat
of the garrison, and preparations were retitle tai '
! give the enemy a -warm .rocuption; sidien it was
discuvered that kbey were Own or cartridges.--a
Wadding- was wanted and a messenger was sent
gusty threugh the ail:tare to procure flaritrel.L'-
' The isdrahltanta had mostly packed their gouda
and were carrying them off to places l ea s expo a.
Mrs. Bailey was sending away her eifeets riiiahad
only a few necessary articles left itt the hurt-c. She
was crossing the street to a neighbor's door, when
the tnesranger, having traversed the vd.l.age ask
ing Ma - alp at stery house for tiannertiaaaake cart"
ridgea, accosted her and made known hi*, errand
and his ill success. Without a rampant's delay-.
qui& as thought—she slipped her hand lam tier
pocket-hole, loosened her skirt, shook .it off, and
lifting it up, presented it to the messenger with a
right hearty laugh. expressing a wish the import ,
or which was, that it might do its work promptly
and effectually.
The by-slanders were much amused and uttered'
ra shout of admiration. The messenger hastened
with his prize to the fortress and made his report.
The story was rehearsed to the whole garrison ;
and the sacrificed skirt being unrolled and; display
ed, was received i lwith laud acciamatima; the men ;
rearing it up on their pikes, declared that they
would tight under it ,to the last drop of their blood.
Had the British actually made an attack at that
time, it is quite probable that Lila memorable gar
ment would have been run up the dila-staff, sans
allowed to throw out its folds upon the wind as a
banner.
This anecdote went forthwith into the netespa
pera, and was soon spread through the Union. 41ra.
Bailey was exalted to .a pinacle of notoriety, as
the greatest of femala patriots. She was toasted,
visited, caressed; letters, tokens, and presents
Were sent her from all quarters. At agreat mili
tary and naval ball r lon ^-• •
given in New Lurid not lung
afterwards, Mrs. Bailey appeared in aiatighe cos

highest in rank that was present on the occasion:

Two presidents of the United States, Monroe and
Jackson, in their respective tours through the '
Northern State... after visiting Groton Fort, wend
in stately procession to pay their respects to her as
