Bristol, Pa.-For the first time IN
40 years Joseph Kesiah Of Bristol has IS
heard from his relatives in Spain. at
the age Of II he was taken from the
fields In the town Of Seron, province
Of Almeria. and, unable to read and
write, was drafted in the Spanish
navy. From that day until this ne
has been entirely without knowledge
Of. the condition or welfare Of his par
;ents and seven brothers and sisters.
With his father he had been In the
business of raising sheep, and, being
in the interior Of: Spain, had never
seen the sea. Aboard ship for the
first time, he became horribly SICK
and despised the life into which h. he
had been forced. His ship touched at
Havana, Cuba, and sailed for New
York. While at the latter city
Kesiah escaped and was given en-
ployment in a Spanish boarding house.
He stayed in New York seven or eight
years atIvarious work, then went to
Clifton Heights, Pa, and finally came
to Bristol, where he is now engaged
| in the oyster business.
His story came out. and the Amer
| can consul at Malaga, Spain, was com

Then there is sextant, which meas

Compass needles. If left to them

This is the first Americanloye story.
Capt. John Smith was soldier sold t'3 OF |
fortune. He was also a bully, brag-
CART and most amazing liar But II
spite Of all this he was a great man
and our country owes him debt that
should never be forgotten. Smith hao
knocked about the world ever since
las boy, he ran away from his Eng

sailor, a captive slave in the orient
and had followed many trades It Is
hard to gain a true idea Of his career,
since for a great deal Of it we have
only his own word to go on. And ne
had scant regard for truth. .
A band Of English c0lonists landed
in Virginia in 1907. They were a mot
lev rabble, who had gone there expect

not pick up gold for the asking IN

and cared little about settling down as
