Bought the Ship That Brought Him,

An interesting anecdote is told of
the late Captain Theodore julius. Some
time ago Captain julius went over to a
shipyard in Camden to take 4 look ut
the old packetship Tonawanda, which
was being converted into u coal barge.
The captain took a particular interest
in the old ship. because Of his having
served as mate aboard her in the early
sixties. While he stood watching the old
vessel, a tall stranger approached him
and asked, isn't your anne Julius:'
The captain replied in the affirmative.
lyon were q mate en- that ship in the
summer of 1892 "Yes, said the cap
tain. "You don't remember me-" con-
tinued the stranger, hut l remember
you very we'll. | was a steerage passen-
ger on tho Tonawanda at that time, be-
ing OH my way to this country. I've
been pretty prosperous, and I've just
bought the old ship and am going to

it, that I should come to own the ship
that brought me. practically penniless,
to this country?'-Philadelphia Record.
