Aged Man Dead

Elias Foy, aged almost 100 years, is dead at the Cambria 
County Poor farm.  Foy died Thursday.

Ever since 1885 Elias Foy has been one of the inmates at 
the almshouse.  He was admitted 23 years ago and has been 
there since. He came from Indiana county into Cambria and 
while he may have one or two relatives in that county, he 
himself did not remember their names.

Foy did not know how old he was. He knew that he was almost 
100 but could not tell his exact age.
