A JOYFUL N EETINa.
A Father Finds His Daughter After a
Long Separation.

MoRRIs, ILL.,, March l4.-s. M. Under
wood has been engaged in the mercantile
business here for number Of years, hav-
ing formerly lived in Gardner, ILL.,, where
no was married TO Miss Hunt. Two
daughters were born 10 them, and about
twelve years ago Mr.. Underwood and his
wife, finding that they could not live 10.
gethcr happily, concluded TO separate.
Mrs. Underwood took her children and
went TO her former homo In Michigan, but
soon placed her children with friends aud
went away. Tho father succeeded In find
ing the older daughter and brought her to
his home In Morris. The other child IL
was impossible for Mr.. Underwood TO find,
and ever since he has been patiently,
through detectives and other ways, trying
10 ascertain where she was. Mr.. Under
wood at length found clew that led him
to Waukesha and TO the Harrison
family, who formerly lived In Mich
lgan and were well acquainted with
his wife. The strong family re-
semblancc which the child bore 10 both
himself aud his mother was sufficient proof
10 Mr.. Underwood that he had found his
lost child. lie then procured the services
Of Others, who communicated with the
daughter Leila, and found that she al
though happily situated in the family Of
MIR. Harrison, had n strong desire 10 find
her father and sister. She had always
known that she was not child Of Mr.. and
Ms. Harrison. She consented 10 have an
interview with her father at neighbours
house in Waukesha and 20 return with
him to Morris, whore she now is appar-
emily happy.
A dispatch from Waukcska, Wis. says
Mr.. Harrison has started for Illinois and II
he fails 10 recover the gih Il Is claimed he
will sue Underwood for ten years board,
that being the length of time she has been
In his family.
