LIEUT.. GREEDY.
An incident Touching the Bsun-
~ offered by Congress for the
HelIef af uHis ENuedfffou.


It may not be generally known that the
leading spiri. In the matter Of the bounty
offer for the relief Of Lieut. Greedy was MAJ
Benjamin c. Truman. Of this city. who has
long been personal friend Of the eminent
navigator and his noble wiie-the story Of
which Is. briefly, a. follows. One evening.
| a little more than year ago, Mrs. Greely
aud her brother accepted an Invitation from
Major and Mrs. rrum N to dine with them;
and during the repast Mrs. Greedy, who had
never lost hope. even aitef the failure OF the
government 10 render succOr to the explor.
ers as previously planned, expressed the
opinion that II a substantial reward was
offered by the government for the rescue Of
Mr. Greedy that Il wound have tendency to
not only induce the Arctic whalers to make
an effort In that direction, but would be the
me ans Of greater efforts on the part Of the
geneT ii government and those who should
be oficially sent upon the forthcoming ex
pedltiOn. Mr. Trum IN declared that the
idea was good one. but that before making
the sortie upon Congress- the power OF the
press should be invoked. The same night
MI. Truman wrote an editorial for q New
Yosk and S Sns for ,,n wssshdngt o5
copied; and .afterward, In commune
ti0n with Douglas Gum, OF san Diego.
and Capt. W. b. Collier Of this city, he SGT
the bali to rolling. and the entire press OF
California soon took up the matter Of re-
ward aud handsomely and forcibly endors-
ed what had seeIningly originated In the
L lst. All OF these latter artieles-especially
those which appeared In the IN Francisco
newspapers-were marked and sent to prom
inent lstern ptpers, las well as TO MIS-
Greedy, who had returned to her home In
San Diego, and to members Of Congress,
the result OF wnicn Is known all over the
word. This statement has been drawn from
letter which we have been shown from
Mrs. Greeley TO Mrs. 1rumtn dated Ports
mouth, N. H.. September 23d, which con
clndes thus Before closing l want to
thank you, and through you, NJ tjor Truman,
for his very earnest and warm congratula-
tions by telegram. He was one of. the very
few who never lost hope aud whos encour.
aged me In my belief that Mr.. Greedy would
return; and shall always remember II as
well as his great interest and work In regard
to the bounty natter Tor It Is admitted by
many that the reward WAS of great service
after ALL from the fact that the whalers were
In advance and probably gave an incentive
to the relief party to lose no time; and, you
know, twenty-four hours more would have
been fatal to Mr.. Greedy. Please thank your
husband for the many papers he sent me.
which were OF great interest to me. We
shall prob IDLY go to Washington about the

able to commence his work By that time.
