resulted in HIS separation from HIS parents.
Mr. Martin, who appears TO be enjoying superb
health. inclined TO talk about his sons affairs
after he had reached his home at No % West Twentieth
ST., where numerous friends called upon him during
the day, but spoke freely Of his experiences abroad

spendidly successful At his hunting seat at
Eaimacaan fifteen miles from Inverness. the sport had
been superb. Bamacaan contains $1,000 acres, OF
which $4,000 Is deer forest During the season
he had entertained about 100 guests Altogether.
seventy stays shot, which Is within FIVE Of the
limit allowed. Some excellent bags Of partr!dges,
grouse end pheasants also were obtained All the
deer hunting Mr.. Martin said. done by stalking,
which was the most scientific sport in the world and
one that required rugged physique.
Mr. Martin said he believed that the present social
season would be the most brilliant for many years,
as many prominent families would lay aside mourning

or sixteen years of age.
The stories told about Sherman having married
