Catches Up with Capt. Nielsen on
the Revenue Cutter Manhattan.
Writer, "A Brother, Is Now I'm This
Country, in Revenue-cutter Service.

New York, Nov. 23.-"And the letter
that he longed for came at last"'
On January 9 1915. John y Nielsen, in
the home of his parents in far Off Gram
stadt Norway, decided he would write a
letter 10 his brother Tom. who was cap
tain of the good bark Harmonic. due at
Minoteteon, Mexico, some time after the
opening of that year John told all that
had happened in the neighborhood-how
another brother, Nicholas. had broken Il
leg. and been sent 20 the hospital; how
this or that friend had died or been mar
ried or gone over sea to America; how
certain new babies had arrived in town
and 70 what families they were attached
Mrs Capt. Tom seized the opportunity
TO inclose a letter of her own in the
same envelope-being a thrifty soul, who
believed in looking after the pennies
Begins Long Journey.
The envelope was addressed to Capt
Tom Nielsen. in care Of the Swedish
consul at Minoteteon, Mexico. That was
the beginning Of a long and continuous
journey for the ietter-which was re-
ceived yesterday by Capt. Tom, now car
penter on the United States revenue cut
ter Manhattan, stationed at the Battery.
Mrs. Capt Tom and john and Nicholas
are all here now. and have been for some
years. Brothers John and Nicholas also
are in the revenue service and OF, the cut
ter Manhattan.
The postmarks on the letter show that
the missive went 10 the Mexican port to
which 1t was originally addressed Capt
Tom changed rapidly from one sailing
vessel to another. and the postal author
titles were not able to keep pace with
him. 1t went nearly around the world.
-Four times il went back to Brother John
at Gramstadt, and four times John sent
il away again, determined that If the
mails were good for anything he was
going to have that letter reach his
brother If it took lifetime
Finally Capt Tom became tired OF the
sea and sought to settle down He pro-
cured the position he holds to-day. and
has been stationed at New York ever
since. During all these years the letter
was Topping around the world, being
swatted with a postmark at intervals.
Fifteen Of these marks can be traced on
the envelope There were many more.
but they have been blotted out

The letter was opened At times by postal
officials, who returned Il 10 John. The
freshest foreign stamp On II was placed
there in Gramstadt on June &c. 1907.
That is the last trace Of its wanderings
until Capt Tom received it yesterday.
The old man and all his relatives were
greatly surprised and delighted.
When Capt. Tom went into the revenue
service he brought his wife across the
sea. and told his brothers to come along
as fast as they could. They had forgot
ten all about the missing letter till n
pOstman boarded the revenue cutter yes
terday and handed IL 70 Capt. Tom. The
news II contained was a trifle stale, but
it made good reading just the same.
