happiness In this life. Miss Merritt was little
older than either OF the two other ladies' hut was
also genial and kindhesrted lady. Of all those

under strong emotion was anxiously asking news
OF the fate Of the Atlantic at the clerks Office Of
the Fifth Avenue Hotel. When questioned about
the strong interest he seemed to evnce In the fate
OF the vessel, he said that he was tho
brother Of two sisters who were on board
the Atlantic The particulars OF the loss OF
the vessel were not known at that time and the
anxiety Of the young man was something very
painful to behold. It proved that his name was
Mr.. James Rose. and the two sisters he was inqur-
ing about so anxiously were the two Misses Rose
whose fate has since become certain. The
family was in good circumstances and the
two young ladies had gone over under the charge
or another family They became hOmesick and
wished to return Immediately. however, and they
were put under the Captains charge by their
friends. Both were very young and very accom-
plished. Such death Is terrible bereavement to
the family, for 1t leaves no daughter in the home
circle.
