Little Veda's Lucky Journey.

[San Jose Mercury and Herald October 25thl
Little Veda Coy, the daughter of Mrs.
Leliah Coy who lives on the Mount Ham
iton road, has spent only six short,
happy years in this big, round world.
Yet she is a brave little girl and has
undertaken something that very few
little tots only six years old, would think
of doing and she is not even crying about
it. She has just started to make long
journey -2376 miles long, and she is
leaving her mama and her home, the
beautiful Santa Clara Valley, and the
golden sunshine and flowers Of California
behind, for she is going to live with her
auntie in far-away Kilbourn, Wis. More
than that she is travelling alone all the
way to Chicago, where she will be met by
her aunt, who will take her to her home
in Wisconsin.
F. W. Angler, the General Passenger
Agent of the Union Pacific Railway in
this city, took great interest in little
Veda, and, to see that she got started
safely, left with the child yesterday
afternoon at $3.50 o'clock for Oakland
Pier, where he placed her in the Union
Pacific Tourist car which runs through
to Chicago. The Pullman conductor in
charge Of the car was directed to take
good care of the little traveller and to
see that nothing befalls her en- route.
When Chicago is reached, he will place
her in the arms of the aunt. AS an
extra precaution, Mr.. Angler fastened
to the child's clothing tag reading:
"Veda Coy, care of Mrs. Eunice Baker.
Kilbourn, Wis. Route S. P.-Union
Pacifc-C. & N. W. Lower No. 8, Tour
ist Car d.
Little Veda is bright and pretty child
ready to make friends with everybody.
When she left San Jose, she was brave,
happy and contented and surely will
not lack friends, attention and care for
her long overland Journey to the great
city by the lake.
