HIS STEPCH|LDREN
Mrs. Nolan's Gratitude
Shown in Long Search for
Missing Spouse.

Because Lieut.. Arthur Nolan, unac-
countably missing, took into his heart
three little children not his own, reared
and cared for them as he would his
own flesh and blood, his wife has deter
mined never to relinquish her search for
him until her last penny is gone.
That is why she has added another
hundred dollars to the already large re-
ward she has offered for news concern
ing his whereabouts, and now $500 will
be paid for his discovery.
Nolan was lieutenant Of Engine Com
pany No. 9. He left home April l, and
a note to his wife told her that his trou-
bles were too great to face.
When he married Mrs. Nolan, she was
the mother of three children, the young
est scarcely three months old.
Arthur was go0d to me and ny chill
dren," the woman said this morning.
He treated them as though they were
his own. He gave me sympathy and
aid when / needed it most. and I shall
not desert him. If he is alive, his
troubles are my troubles, and IL It is
possible to find him, will do So"
And so, after Nolan has been absent
for months, the search will continue,
pushed on by a hungry-hearted woman,
who declares that she will notify all
health resorts of her husbands disap-
pearance, that she will communicate
herself with the chiefs OF police OF diff
ferent cities. and will ask the Navy
to see whether Nolan has Joined one OF
the battleships.
