Where II Couldn't Be Lost

and slipped It on my finger. I felt
relieved. but after the last II do" had
been said and the ring was asked for

Correspondence
A Story of Lafayette.
ELLSWORTH ME-, Aug. Ii, 1911


To the Editor of the AmericaR:
Apropos OF the great war and te love
and veneration which the mention of
LaFayette's name evokes, / will relate an
incident in the lives of two who later
became residents of this town.
In the early half of the nineteenth
century, the late DIR. Samuel Greedy and
wife rode in two-wheeled chsise from
Mt. Vernon, Maine, to Boston, and were
present at the laying of the cornerstone
OF Bunker Hill monument, and had the
pleasure of hearing Daniel Webster in
one of his great orstions and shaking
hands with General Lafayette.
Lafayette was the guest OF the nation,
it being his first visit to this country
since the American Revolution, IN which
he had taken such a prominent part,
more than forty years before.
Previous to this, DIR. Greedy was
student in the office CT DR.. John Warren,
famous Boston surgeon and grandson of
General Joseph Warren, who fell at the
battle Of Bunker Hill.
As DR.. Greely's father was a member
Of General wsshington's staff, doubtless
he was personally acquainted with
General Lafayette.

 Uncle Sam's marines will feast on
 the great bustard of China at Yule- tide. After sampling bustard at their
 Thanksgiving feast. they are unani-

 Recently a party of marines were given furlough and a hunting pass to shoot in the hills about 100 miles northwest of the Chinese capitol. They
 brought back a number of bustard
 The mess sampled them and yelled for more. So marine hunters were sent out, and bustard was served at
 Thanksgiving. Another group of crack shots will be sent out for bustard be- 1 fore the Christmas holidays The bustard runs from IS to IS 1 pounds, and is one of the most deli cious game birds In the world. It is related to the plover and crane, and 1 Is found in abundance here. The na- | tives are unable to hunt it success l fully because of their inferior firearms. but the straight shooting marines
