Jamesburg, Dec. 6:-Probably
there is no happier person for many
miles around than Ethel M. Green
slade, of London, England, a sister
of Frederick Greenslade, chief cleo
trician for the Jamesburg Light
Company and manager of the James,
burg Water Company, who, after
travelling over three thousand miles
In search of long-lost brother, &C
costed him on Railroad avenue and
inquired of him if he knew where
she could find the identical person to
whom she had just addressed the
query.
Miss Greenslade had just arrived
from Chester, West Virginia, and
was endeavoring to find the home of
her brother, whom she had not seen
since she was a young miss in Eng
land, and who, after she had grown
to womanhood, started out firmly
resolved that she would not cease her
search until her mission had been ac-
complished. That she finally located
her brother, whom she had not seen
in almost twenty years, was due to a
clue she had received while on visit
with relative at Chester, West Vir-
ginia, and the fact that she recog-
nized the voice of her brother whom
she had not seen in almost quarter
century shows how acute her sense
of memory served her.
Mr.. Greenslade had just emerged
from the jewelry store on Railroad
avenue when the strange miss accost-
ed him with the inquery as to his
l.
semblance between himself and the
stranger he asked her mission and
at once the recognition was made
complete. An affecting greeting be-
tween the couple SO strangely thrown
together attracted a number of Pc
destrians to the scene after someone
had shouted that a troupe of movie
actors had invaded the town and
were making a picture for some
drama.
Miss Greenslade, when interviewed
py a NEWS man at the home OF her
brother on Buckelew avenue, told OF
the trials she had experienced in her
efforts to fiEd her brother. Not
word had she received OF him since
he left home and the family had lost
all hope. They had heard In round
about way that he had enlisted in the
English army in the Boer war and
thought he must have been killed in
battle, as no word was ever received.
"Now that I have found him you
can Just bet he will not bury himself
for a long period again. continued
pretty Miss Greenslade. And to
think met him so unexpectedly, too,
only adds a touch of romance to the
affair that makes 1t all the more en-
toyable." Miss Greenslade will make
her home in Jamesburg until the
spring, when she expects to sail for
London and If persuasion amounts TO
anything her brother will sail for his
boyhood home at the same time. She
said he owed visit to his people,
whom he so thoughtlessly kept IN
suspense for all these years.
Miss Greenslade arrived in Amer1-
ca last February and had made
systematic search of all cities where
she would be liable to run across her
lost brother. Her running down
clue she received at Chester, w. ".
ended a search that had its ending
long before the fondest thought had
ever hoped for.
The only explanation Mr.. Green
slade would give for his strange con-
duct was that he was tired of the
humdrum of life at home on the
farm and decided to start out TOT
himself. This he had accomplished
for he has visited almost every coun-
try in the world and has had his fnll
desire of seeing the unusual sights
that fascinate so many young men.
He thinks that now he has beer
united to his favorite sister that all
will be forgiven and that he Will re-
turn with her to England.
