MISSING 80 YEARS,
FINDS RELATIVES.
Mount Airy Man, Believed
Dead, Is Reunited With
Family.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
MOUNT AIRY, Md, August 16.-Ex-
pressing samazement at the growth OF
Mount Airy since his departure, Samuel
A. CLAY, 10 years old, for nearly Sc
wears thought dead, arrived in town
here. While still a young man, tmbueo
with a spirit of wanderlust, Mr.. Clay
left home in 1881 to try his fortunes in
other parts of the country.
Letters Unanswered.
Through a strange coincidence letters
that he wrote home were apparently
lost and remained unanswered, so he
imagined his family had either died or
moved away. AS his folks did not hear
from him either they thought him dead
and this belief was strengthened when
they read an account of the death. of
a Samuel A. Clay in Streator, III,
where he was supposed to have gone.
Truth is stranger than fiction, how
ever, and the aged man was seen and
identified by colored man in Pitts
Some time elapsed before the colored
man returned to Mount Airy and noti-
fed Mr.. Clay's brothers, George and
Henry. George Immediately set out for
Pittsburgh and located his brother, who
is now spending several weeks with his
surviving relatives after nearly a hall
century.
Escapes In Train Wreck.
In reminiscing on his experiences
during the past so years Mr.. Clay stated
that a miraculous escape from death in
a train wreck was perhaps the most
outstanding In. 1884, just several years
after leaving home, he was stationed on
the Pittsburgh division of the Baltimore
& Ohio Railroad as an engineer, operat-
ing freight between Connellsville, Pa,
and Cumberland, Md. 1t was on one of
his usual runs, just miles out of
Connellsville, that a head-on collision
occurred between his own and west
bound freight, caused through a miSake
in schedule. When the engines crashed
he was thrown through the cab window
onto the tracks beneath the locomo-
tives. Only the fact that one engine
held the other suspended saved him
from being crushed Forty men lost
their lives In this disastrous crash, while
Mr.. Clay escaped with only q broken
arm.
