Up at the Northern Pacific depot
sits little woman, sobbing her heart
away, while two little children play
around her, sadly silent and unable
to appreciate her sorrow. From mid
night last night all through the early
hours of the morning the little woman
sat there with tears streaming down
her tired face. Every time the big
station door opens her face lights up
temporarily. but. when she realizes that
the one she is longing for has not come
to meet her. her dull. blank despair
settles again over her countenance,.
Andrew Pietrzak was to meet his
wife on the train which came in from
the east at midnight. Mrs. Pietrzak
and her two little children had come
from New York to make their home
in Spokane with husband and father.
When she got off the train the little
woman gazed anxiously at the sea of
faces around her. but there was no
one there to greet her.
Despair quickly overcame her and
great sobs shook her frame. Kind
hearted station employees made her
comfortable for the night and whisper
ed assurances that her husband would
surely come in the morning. But the
husband and father hasn't put in an
appearance and the little woman is
sobbing her heart away; alone and
friendless, stranger in IA strange land.

Generals Bell and Wells went into
