                             REUNION OF SHAY FAMILY

      On Saturday, August 25, 1906, a family reunion of the Shay Family was held 
at Young's Crossing, near Lakemont Park, at the home of Harry Shay.

      The most interesting part was the presence of Mrs. Maria Shay, the oldest 
living member of the Shay family.

      Those present were:

              W. A. Shay and wife and son.
              Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Wilson & Family of Hollidaysburg
              Mrs. Jennie Maloney & son 
              Peter Maloney of Troy, N.Y.
              Mrs. Martha Clark of Scottdale
              Mr. and Mrs. James Irwin of Royer
              Mr. and Mrs. John Shay
              Mr. and Mrs. Emmitt Shay
                  and
              Mr. and Mrs. W. F. Irwin and their families of Altoona.

      All done justice to a fine meal and the afternoon was spent in playing 
ball, running races and other sports.
