COLONEL THEALL
HAS RECOVERED

The complete recovery from what
was believed to be a fatal accident
last. November, has restored Colonel
Elisha Thean to duty at the head
quarters of the Marine Corps. AS
secretary of the House Committee on
Naval Affairs, and later as special
legal adviser to the Secretary of the
Navy, Colonel Thea1l is probably the
best known officer of the naval SER
vice on duty in Washington, his ac-
Quaintance covering practically
every prominent man in public life
in the last twelve years.
Colonel TheaH's case will undoubt-
eddy be recorded in medical circles as
an amazing one. Not only did he
suffer a compound fracture of the
skull, with other complications when
struck by an automobile in Wash
ington last November, but he had
previously been retired as a Marine
officer in 1897 and invaded from ac-
tive service. He was restored to ac-
tive duty twenty years later, at the
outbreak of the war. While on the
retired list Colonel Theau graduated
in law at the Columbia, University
and later acted as secretary of the
House Naval Committee under Chair
man Padgett and Butler. Through
out the war he was stationed at
Philadelphia and Norfolk. He grad
uated from the Naval Academy in
1891 and transferred to the Marin G
Corps two years later after comp1et-
ing two years sea, duty.
