Napoleon His Father.
DEATH OF AN OLD MAN WHO SAID HE
WAS THE ILLECITIMATE SON OF
THE "LITTLE CORPORAL

There died at the County inhrmary
at Findlay, Ohio, last Saturday morn
ing an old man named Paul Jordan,
who has always declared that he was
an illegitimatc son of Napoleon Bona
parte, and that he was born at Paris
in 1883, which statement, if true,
would make him at the time of his
death 100 years of age.
Jordan's story as told by him on
many different occasions, was to the
effect that he went to Egypt in 1896
with Napoleon upon his famous ex-
petitions 20 the pyramids and that he
Qordan) was captured by the Turks,
living with them for several years a
nomadic life. He was afterward re-
leased by some Jews and lived in Je-
rusalem until short time after his re-
puted father was banished to the is
land of ST. Helena.
Jordan has lived as an inmate of
the Hance County lnhrmary for the
past ten years, having been found in a
bewildered condition in the southern
part Of the county, unable to give an
account of himself. He afterward
proved to be able to speak French
fluently, and was conversant with sew
eral of the dialects Of the Tartars and
nomidic Turks. His name was given
him by the Jews.
The story seems incredible, but
Jordan, who was fine looking man
with an unusually large head and fine
broad features, bore remarkable re-
semblance to the distinguished Bona
part. Jordan had remarkably small
and delicate hands (Bonaparte's most
characteristic feature). and it could be
said they were Of feminine proper
tions. Other circumstances also lead
everybody here to believe that Jor-
dams story was correct, and that he
was the son Of the famous soldier.
