she looked like sister who had died in
Toronto some time ago He was anxious
that her parents should permit her to go
with him to Toronto, but they refused TO
let her go.
During the time Emmons resided here
he discussed his family troubles with
the Grants He told them of the deatf
OF his parents. brother and sister, and
of the destruction of his home by fire
He said it was necessary for him to re-
turn to Toronto to collect $3.50 insurance
