days before returning to active life The
latter part of her trip was made pleasant
by the courtesy of people along the route.
At different points enthusiastic citizens

small army of admirers from surrounding
towns. She walked twenty-five miles
Thursday and twenty-five miles yesterday.
She has made the trip in 2l5 days instead
Of 226 wagered on, and she has lost
