Bailey Street


BAILEY STREET appears to be named for real estate developer William T. Bailey, who was responsible for building rows of homes between North 5th and North 6th Streets on State, Grant, Bailey and York Streets. He also appear to been involved developing other blocks in North Camden.

YEAR'S HOTTEST DAY 'BAKES' CITY, KILLS 2 
Edward T. McAllister, Veteran at Esterbrook's,
Dies on Way Home

The hottest day of the year brought death to two persons in Camden and Philadelphia, yesterday and caused general discomfort from the Rocky Mountains to the Atlantic Coast. No relief is expected today, except possible showers. 

Edward T. McAllister, 67, of 633 Bailey Street, collapsed late yesterday in an alley at the rear of 914 North Sixth Street. Neighbors called police who took him to Cooper Hospital where he was pronounced dead. Coroner Benjamin R. Denny said death was due to heart attack, induced by the heat. 

Veteran at Esterbrook's 

McAllister was returning home from the Esterbrook Pen Company plant where he was employed 20 years. He was in ill health recently. His widow, Lottie, survives. Funeral services will be held at 2.30 p. m. tomorrow at the Denny funeral home 736 Market Street. Burial will be in Arlington cemetery.

The Philadelphia victim was William Barchmaier, 42, of 4059 Teesdale Street, who collapsed at Keystone and Cottman Streets, Tacony. He was pronounced dead at Frankford Hospital. 

92 at 4.30 P. M. 

The mercury reached a high of 92 degrees at 4.30 p. m., two degrees below the record for the date set in 1914. The hourly temperatures follow:

9 a. m 73 4 p. m 91
10 a.m  77 4:30 p.m 92
11 a.m 79 5 p. m 91

1 p. m  87 7 p. m  90 
2 p. m 88 8 p. m 89
3 p. m 88  9 p. m 88 

The weather bureau does not hold out much hope for a change today. Continued warm weather, with possible thundershowers in the afternoon is forecast.

Camden NJ Fire Fighter Battle Smokey 2 Alarm Blaze

Shortly after 1:00 PM on December 13, 2007 a police car on patrol spotted heavy smoke coming from a row of vacant dwellings in the 600 block of Bailey Street in the North Camden section of the city.  At the same time Camden Country Fire Radio and Camden Police 911 Center were receiving calls for the same fire location.  Companies were now dispatched along with Battalion 2 Chief Mike DiPascale.  Fire Radio informed Battalion 2 that they were receiving numerous calls and were adding the extra Engine Company to the Box.  

Engine Company 6, under the Command of Captain Sandrock was first on location and reported that he had a row of two story vacant dwellings with the first two dwellings heavily involved and that he was going in service.  Battalion 2 was now on location and informed Fire Radio to strike an All Hands Box and requested an additional Engine and Ladder Company to be dispatched.  

It was a rainy, misty day and the smoke was so heavy that fire fighters had a hard time trying to see up the street to where the fire was located. All of the dwellings were heavily boarded up, making it extremely hard for the fire fighters to make entry.  Truck Companies went up to the roof to ventilate.  Six 1-3/4" lines were now in service as fire fighters were making good progress attacking the fire.  They were able to contain the blaze to two dwellings with some damage to the third dwelling.  About 40 minutes into the fire Chief DiPascale placed the fire Under Control.  The fire is being investigated by the Camden City Fire Marshal's Office and the Camden Police Department Arson Squad.
