A London Adventure.
(Cunclude,i.)

In my last article 1 had lost Mrs.
Walker in London Saturday night.
She and some others had lcst Miss
Delp.
Mr.. Baty, our Canada friend,
phoned to Miss De!p's hotel to find
ont if she had returned. She and
few others of our party had rooms
at hotel under same management
as and near the one i'll which most
of our 80 people were staying. In
some way the hotel office did moi
have Miss Delp's room number and
Mr.. Baty could get no inform alton
there. About 1880 o'clock our five
people began to try 10 get back To
our hotel. One Of their troubles in
finding their way was drunk street
car or bus conductor. After going
in different directions and trying
different modes of travel, they final
ly reached Miss Delp's hotel, and
then how were they to find ou,
whether she had returned in safety
or not, for they did not know the
number of her room and had moi,
been able to find out from the
office? But at last they aroused some
others of our party rooming in this
hotel and found from them the
number.
Soon after getting her seat at the
horse show, Miss Delp grew uneasy
at being separated from her five
friends in this crowd of 10000 peo
pie in great London, 80 many miles
away from her hotel, and decided
while it was early she had bes,
start for her hotel. She happened
not to have enough money with her
to hire a taxi, 80 she had to make
her way by car or motor bus. In
changing and trying to find the
right way, she to her dismay found
herself wandering about in wha,
seemed to be one of the worst sec.
tions of London. But finally she
found her way safely home before
her friends reached her hotel.
By little after l:30 Sunday
morning Miss Delp had been found
in her room. Mrs. Baty, who il
great anxiety had been walking he
room, was relieved by the return o
Mr.. Bsty, and was happy agair
by Nh. and Mrs. Brann and tn.
others bringing Mrs. Walker bac.
in safety.
