The doctor’s liaison with the woman was discovered by his wife, who followed him to her house and caught them under circumstances which left no doubt of their guilt." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Note: Family records on Ancestry.com show that Dr William Day Barclay was born 24 Apr 1827 in Punxsutawney, PA and died 14 Jan 1887.
