DR.. TYNAN BOBS UP
After Having Been Declared
Dead by the Court.
FOUND BY A SPIRITUALIST

SAN Francisco, September 2S.--Dr.
Thomas E. lyman of Modesto, the capt.
talist who disappeared October l6, 1892,
and for information of whom Mrs. Ty-
nan offered reward of $1,000, returned
to the city this morning. DR.. lyman
came from Reno, New, and Immediately
upon his arrival went to the Changers
Bank. The two years absence OF the
doctor has wrought much change in his
appearance. His once tall and massive
figure is now shrunken and STOPPING.
Many of his old friends and business ac-
quaintances were in the bank to meet
him, and he greeted them in an absent
minded sort OF way and acted generally
as one who was in a dream and sur
prised at nothing. When asked where
he had been all this time he said in Bos-
ton, and refused to say anything further.
The meeting between Mrs. lyman and
her husband was remarkably common
place, and no emotion was shown by
either. Mrs. lyman is said not to have
seen her husband since his mysterious
disappearance, and was dressed in deep
mourning for his supposed death.
DR.. lyman is the heaviest property
owner in Modesto. He was also di-
rector of the Changers Bank in this city
and well known to people all over the
Pacific Coast, among whom he has been
a familiar figure Tor years, his large
wealth, his prolonged vigorous strength
and business capacity having made him
conspicuous. lie was over 70 years OF
age when he disappeared. October Ii
he was in the Changers Bank IN tins
city, and then there was paid over to
him the sum of $4,000. From then un-
til now he has been supposed dead. In
July, 1898, his wife offered reward OF
~, 900 to any person who should furnish
information that he was alive. NO such
information came. What was Temporal
rily supposed to be his body was report
ed sometimes in one place and sometimes
in another. The detectives, however,
insisted that they had traced lyman to
Sacramento, where he bought ticket
to New York under the name OF Thomas
S. Stanley, but farther than this they
could not trace him.
His wife searched for many months
for him, and finally concluded that he
was dead. On the showing made Judge
Minor of Stanislaus county decided that
he was dead. John Slater, a local Spir-
