Young A. L. Dyke summoned by telegraph to receive huge inheritance from wealthy uncle in England

GREAT GOOD FORTUNE.

A Peanut Peddler Becomes a Millionaire.

From the Kansas City Journal. Yesterday A. L. Dyke, a train boy on the Kansas Pacific Railroad, started for England in obedience to a summons by telegraph. The dispatch stated that a very wealthy uncle of the boy had died, leaving him his entire property, valued $1,250,000. They boy tarted yesterday afternoon for New York, and will take the first steamer for England. He was excited and nervous, although he attempted to conceal his agitation. A friend asked him what he was going to do with the vast fortune left him. He replied that he meant to "go slow" -- He made the remark that "the lawyers shouldn't get their clutches on it if he could help it."

Young Dyke's former home was in Cheltenham, England, according to the News' statement, and he left there eight years ago. A man named William Rouse came over the ocean with him, but returned some time since, and from him the telegram came announcing to Dyke the immense wealth to which he is left heir. The news was altogether unexpected to the youthful vender of apples, peanuts, papers, &c., and his excitement on receiving the intelligence can be imagined.
