MIR. Spencer Murray III.

Mr.. Spencer Murray, a brother Of
Mrs. Joseph p McComas. wife Of the
rector of St. Anne's. is quite III at his
home in Hartford, Conn.
Mr.. Murray is q son of the late Pay
Director James d Murray, u. S. ~.
and was thought TO be suffering from
typhoid.
Mr.. Spencer Murray was taken sick
on an automobile trip to Cape Cod. FIRST
with violent headache. He was
taken to Oak Bluff, Mass, where he
suffered chiils and fever. also nausea.
and became very ill.
A physician is making two visits
daily and he has the attendance Of a
trained nurse. Both his sisters. Mrs.
McComas and Miss Katherine MURRAY
are with him, and his wife. who was
away, is now with him, also Mrs. Eva
Murray, Of Baltimore.
The case has not been diagnosed
as typhoid, as the blood test was mega
tive. 1t is thought probable he is suf-
fering from nervous break down. or
brain fever. Mr. Murray's relatives
and friends here are much concerned
about his condition.

COUNTESS In DANGER ZONE
Ex-Governor WarfieId Anxious About
His Daughter---NOt Heard From
Since July 4.

Former Governor Edwin Warfeld
has just received an interesting letter
from his daughter, Countess Louise
Ledochowska, dated July 4.
The letter was mailed from he home
at Ostropol. to which she has Just re-
turned from Frydryxow and she tells
OF her trip home when they encoun-
tered hundreds OF fugitiyes and troops
She wrote they had received word OF
the death OF a first cosin on the
battlefield.
since this letter was written the
conditions have been changed very
much for the worst in Poland. Gov
ernor Warfield is anxiously awaiting
further information in regard to the
exact status of that section of Poland
n which his daughter is located.
Wolhynie Is the province in which
she and the family are located and Jhe
Germans are very anxious for this sec
tion of Poland, and the Governor feels
certain they will overrun the country.
No doubt you will be surprised to
see that we are home again, for i'm my
last letter, written from Wolotschiska
told of our intention to stay altogether
at Frydrykow, come what may. But
since then many things have happened
which compel us to return and then
am so glad to be at home again, for
who knows how long we will have
one, 1t is so quiet and peaceful here
after the continual exciten ent and the
panic of Wolotschiska.

one. The place seemed deserted. and
what a scene of ruin! Here was the

roof, and one side with four openings
large enough to drive team through.
The other sides were battered and the
steeple was blown off. 1t is impossible

row of four houses with the adjoining
walls completely destroyed. In the en-

showed us headquarters. We were as
