Strange bat True story.

A great many strange things happen. and
entirely escape public attention, which, if made
known, would produce more than passing
remark. For long time we have heard moth
ing stranger or truer than the story we are
about to relate.
When Thomas Galloway was twenty-four
years of age, he married o widow lady of about
the same age, in village away down in the
State of Vermont. The lady had daughter,
Mary, by her first husband, who, at the time Of
her second marriage, was two years Of age.
just one year after Galowey's marriage, his
wife died. Little Mary was sent to live with a
family of the name of Plunkett, in a neighbor-
ing village, and Galloway left upon whaling
or some other expedition. He cruised the wide
world and wide seas over, wandering from
place to place and finally settled in Dearborn
county, Indiana, twenty years having elapsed
since The death of bis wife. He afterwards
thought of visiting his old Vermont home, but
be had heard from good report that his only
brother John, had taken his departure, and
that little Mary had grown up to womanhood,
married, aud emigrated he could not ascertain
where Having no other ties or affections to
draw him to the place. he scarcely ever gave
1t passing thought.
Shortly after settling in bis new Indian home,
he became acquainted with young widow, and
Notwithstanding the disparity in their ages, he
married her. Some three weeks after this mar
riage. he discovered by his wife's account OF
her early life, that she was no other than his
own stcp-child Mary. She had married five
years before and her husband, James Lachlan,
met with violent death In a clearing two years
afterward. About three years after Galloway IS
second marriage, be happened one day to be in
Lawrenceburg, on the Ohio river. six miles
from his residence, when man by tle name
of Galloway was drowned of a steamer at the
wharf. The body was recovered in GallOway's
presence, and from the appearance of the fea-
lures, and corresponding name. he began to
entertain vague idea that 1t might be his on
ly brother John. Information gained from the
captain OF the boat. strengthened by the suspi-
cion be had formed and ascertaining that the
unfortunate man had family in the vicinity,
and at the time of his death was on his way to
the west to enter land. Galloway resolved to
return with the captain and find ont the truth.
He did 50, and found his suspicious correct.
His brother had q large tract of land, large
family of children, for the most part girls. and
q wife in i'll health After consulting with his
deceased brothers. wi'c, he concluded to take
charge of the farm. Accordingly he went back
TO Indiana, sold his effects there, and in CON-
pany with his young wife, returned, has been
living within six miles os this city FOR q length
of time now going on ten years. This story
is literally true, with the exception of the
names of the principal characters which we are
forbidden to use.-L Wheeling Intelligencer.
