SOME distant relatives from Sweden are
living. But he Was not destined to ar-
rive in the latter city without adventure.
After two days pedestrian travel. he
paused for rest in the town Of AShtabula,
where divers of his countrynien who
were working ON railroad rhinpted MIN
to accept their compatriotic hospitality.
To one Of these he opened his heart, re-
lating the romance by which he had been
driven to salt water, and was amazed to
hear in return that a Swedish lady Of
the same name with his lost heroine was
TO friends in Ashtabufa. from her home
i'm jamestown. n. Y. She had come from
parents in the year 1865. Her fathe:
prospered by the emigration, and died iri
1868, leaving a goodfy property ; and her
friends in Ohio believe that fellow
countryman of hers, thrifty young
merchant on the line of the Cleveland
road, Was likely 10 becorne her husband!
This last conjecture fainpened somewhat

heard the preceding particulars but the
sailor decided nevertheless TO seek an

of that supposed engagement to the
young merchant on the Cleveland road.
But that feeling did not last long; the
lady, now III her thirty-fifth year, was
too glad over ller old lover to leave him
long in doubt of a fidelity Of sentiment
worthy of his own, and he was soon as
sured that any other tender passage of
her life existed only in the fancy of
gossips. The sailor lost no time in con-
fesing at once his unabated devotion
and needy condition, and uttered no af-
tectel protest Wien his restored sweet
heart pretfily reminded him that she was
rich enough for both. So, about o fort
night ago, the reunited lovers went on
together To Jamestown, where marriage
has at last crow ned the romance of their
early wooing and long separation with
the pleasantest possible reality.
