Frederick Dent Grant sailed for Europe
on Wednesday on the American liner st.
Louis, on her way to st. Petersburg,
Russia where her daughter, the Princess
Cantacuzene, is said to be lying seriously
i'll with pneumonia. Mrs. Grants name
does not appear on the passenger list
of the st. Louis, and she IS said TO have
decided on the journey only a few hours
before the steamer sailed. According
to the report a message reached Mrs
Grant in Washington informing her of
her daughters illness, and she suddenly
made up her mind that she would go to
St Petersburg, although the message
had not urged her to do this Mrs.
Grant left Washington by the first train,
and when she arrived here consulted
with Dr. Egbert Guernsey, for years the
Grants family physician, as TO whom
she should take with her as nurse. Miss
Esther A. Shafer was decided upon, and
she sailed with Mrs. Grant

Miss Julia Dent Grant, was married to
Prince Michael Cantacuzcne, OF the
