Leslie Clny Returns.
Last week the Rltl'Unr.IcAN
told of thc sudden ( ltsappearance
of Leslie Clay , on Sunday , Jan.
2th.
'l'he day preceding he had
been kicked on the head by a
horse an , although not injured ,
apparently , at the time , it was
thought to have caused him to
lose reason and that he had wandered -
dered away in a fit of temporary
absent-mindedness , and such
proved to be the case.
Friday evening of last week a
telegram was received from him
dated at Divon , Illinois , 98miles ,
west of Chicago , saying , liDo not
understand situation. Am here.
Wire money to come home. "
Money was at once wircd , as
requested and he reached Ansley
Monday. From the tUItC he lcft
the farm to go to Ansley on that
Sunday morning he docs not rc.
mcmber anything until he came
to himself again at Dixon and ,
as he stated in thc telegram , he
could not understand how he was
there. Of his experiences on the
trip from Ansley to-rnxon he
knows nothing and remembers of
none of the towns or cities
through which he passcd.
