Andrew Nelson had been faithful
engineer at the Hammonton water
works ever since it was installed,
sticking to his post almost night and
day. About a year ago his wife died,
and this, coupled with his close appli-
cation to work, told heavily upon his
health, so the Water Commissioners
voted him a months vacation. This
gave him a chance to sail for his old
home, Meridrikfhald, Norway, and
visit the friends of his boyhood days.
Among the many that he met there
was Miss Hanna Henning, who was
Nelson's schoolgirl sweetheart. The
result was inevitable, and before Mel
son left for America he had Miss Hen
ning's promise that within year she
would come to America and become
his wife. AS promised she arrived.

ephs Church by Rev. Joseph Trans
