FATHER OF w. w. IVES
 IN HIS BOTH YEAR. Is in Good Health and Takes His Daily
 Walk

The New Haven Sunday Register had half page write-up of Capt. Wal ter ". Ives of West Haven, who is 90 years of age. Mr Ives is the father of William w. Ives of this city.
 !. At the early age of 15, young Ives, who had 8 fancy to be a sailor, start ed his career on the bounding main when he sailed from Providence, R. l., on the full rigeed ship Brunswick, whaler Captain Mansfield in charge, as the steward of the ship. He was on that voyage three years and seven months They went down the African coast and up into the Indian ocean to Madagascar and Australia. On the re- turn they stopped at St. Helena and saw the tomb of Napoleon before the removal of his body to France. After reaching home he had not been on land but five days when he sailed again on the Lyon with Captain Rowland This time he went around the Horn and up the west coast of South America to the Sandwich, Gala pagus and Juan Fernandez islands and also to the Philippines. He gave up whaling in 1S44. He then returned to New Haven married and settled down. During the Civil war he sailed between that city and the West Indies.
 Mr. Ives, in his 90th year, is just as spry at the present day as he was 40 years ago, according to his own state- nrent. Every day he takes a. long walk from his residence in Wallace street, West Haven, to various points about West Haven. Often the walk which Captain Ives takes extends over six or seven miles, which is a long distance for man of such years to walk un accompanied. But Gap scorns the fact that man of old age must have company on his daily walks and when he takes his walks during the day he is generally alone.
 The residents of West Haven see him walking along slowly every day wheth- CT it be rain or shine, for regardless of the c1emency of the weather Cap" believes in taking his daily constitu- tional.
