CRANE'S -215 E.Baltimore St. TWINS, 80, SPEND THEIR BIRTHDAY IN SICK-ROOM, ONE SERIOUSLY ILL. Eighty years ago twins—a boy and girl, subsequently christened John and Rachel—were born in Butler, this county, to Mr. and Mrs. J. T. Tracey, descendents of a afam-ily of pioneers of Maryland. One day this week the sister, Mrs. Rachel E. Pitts, watched out her eightieth birthday at the sick bed of her twin brother, John Thomas Tracey, who has been seriously ill for several weeks at his home, 512 East Twenty-sixth street, Baltimore city. Mr. Tracey, a veteran of the Civil War, ran away from home while still a young boy to join the army. His father, at that time proprietor of the Bull's Head, a hotel for farmers in Baltimore, succeeded in getting the boy's release because of his youth. But John ran away again, and this time remained until the close of the war. His father died soon after the boy ran away the second time. On several occasion Mr. Tracey was captured, but was released later at the order of Southern officers, who bade him "scoot, we don't want such a youngster on our hands." Mrs. Pitts, who has lived all her life in Maryland, has been in Baltimore for the last sisx years. "But I love the country," she said. "I can't understand why people will live all huddled up together in the city like sheep when there are great stretches of land all around unoccupied." Mr. .Tracey, who suffered an infection in his leg some time ago, was forced to have his leg amputated below the knee. Three days ago his wife was buried. "COMMODORE" AND MRS.
