Since sh left her home, over four years ago. without good bye, little has been known of her, and what has been heard has come in let ters to her younger brother, Edward, who lives at home.

She went the next morning, and for three weeks lived with her uncle in Meriden. The same trouble caused her to seek more of the world, and she went to Ansonia. It was there she chs nged her name to Wes- ton. S1e worked as a waitress and was also at Bfanford Point and New Haven.
