Night Watchman Receives 10000 From Unknown Benefactor
A long, fractured tale recounts how Paul Street, night watchman for Seanistrict Telegraph Co., learned he had inherited ten thousand dollars from Mrs. Jas. Dayton of Dayton. The cash stems from aid given fourteen years earlier after a railway wreck when Ayer, then 25, helped a wounded girl, Miss Atkinson, and later saved her life. The beneficiary, injured in the wreck himself, recalls the incident and the Ohio towns involved, noting his plan to use the money for stabilization and a new home while continuing his job.
