He was descended from Revolutionary ancestors, his parents, grandparents and great grandparents being extensive land owner farmers within a radius of a few miles of Mr. Carey's birthplace, the old Carey homestead, years before the National Pike. Being sprung from these early pathfinders and tillers of the soil, a love for farming, the joy of the woodland, every phase of the country life was inherent in James Carey. Despite his age of seventy-five years, he took an active part in his extensive farming and lumbering interests, giving personal attention up until a week ago when he was stricken. His death followed a short illness, was a distinct shock to the entire countryside and from Frostburg, where he was very favorably known during his long and useful life. Mr. Carey was one of a family of nine children. Of these, the following sisters and brothers survive him: Mrs. Rose Carey Galvin, of Pittsburgh,  Pa.; Miss Rachel Carey, of the old Carey homestead, and Edward Carey, Springfield. Ill.

Frostburg, Md., March 1 - Simon Caton, farmer, living a short distance west of Frostburg, aged 31 years, died Friday, March 1st, of black diphtheria. Three weeks before, an infant son died.
