The day before l went ouJ M O.
cured the ing1 edients for an eSg-asg
and Christmas morning, in ctr
rooms I made it, and invited a couple
from Los Angeles who we've also
staying in our hotel to join "a, 80 it
seemed just a little like Christmas,
anyway, and We spoke Of all Of you
at home and hoped that our cable
had reached you that morning Tor
rather the day before wBer, you
celebrated your Christmas, time diff
fers, you know.)
On the evening Of the 9Th we
left Calcutta with Abdul, our Indian
servant, to visit other places in this
land of mystery and greatness Per-
haps you wonder why We hsve q
servant to travel with us 80 I will ak
plain. The trains in India are not
like our trains in the u. g. A. They
have compartments much ike the
mes in Europe, but no bed clothing,
towels nor any other necessary az
ticles are available on the trains, and
m must take along everything re-
quired and at the end of each FIRST
class compartment, connected by a
door, there is q small compartment
running width Of car about three
feet wide which IS for servants, and
anything you want must be done by
him, 50 you can readily see that 20
travel in India without one would
not be very pleasant, and ours, I am
glad to say, proved to be an excel
lent one, not only spoke English, but
could read and write it fairly we'll,
and Hindustan being his native
tongue we had no trouble anywhere,
he looking after our baggage, pay
ing all coolies, haekman, etc., and
taking care Of our baggage and look
ing after our comforts In hotels and
elsewhere.
When we reached the depot that
evening the station master conduct
ed US to our compartment and Abdul
had our berths made up ready for ts'
to retire, and the next morning e.
tie having breakfast in the dining
car we reached Benaries, on the
banks Of the Sacred Gauges. This
city has a population Of about S0e,-
900 almost all of which are Hindus
and not more than a half dozen
white people reside there, excepting
the British soldiers. To the Hindu it
is tn most sacred place on earth, aud,
hundreds Of thousands Of them from
all over India go there annually TO
battle in the sacred water Of the
Ganges and every Hindu. who ex-
poets to reach heaven must once
during his life time purify himself
in these waters, consequently to get
a good idea of Hindu life and Gus
toms Benaries is the place most suit
able. Our irst day there was spent
driving about the city and visiting
some Of the shops for which that city
is famous. Brass articles and certain
kinds Of silk goods. are the chief
features and are worth while seeing
and buying, too.eWe have been bay
ing something every where for which
the place visited was famous and b.

that the law permitted a person to

ing them to take care of her and see
that she reached her destination safe
|ly.
An old lady 50, paralyzed and trav-
cling alone was transferred from
train to train with the aid Of two
porters and a wheel chair, and her
ticket changed to make better con-
nections.
An old lady came to visit her niece,
the only address she had was the Post
Office box, we took her to the Home
and communicated through the Post
Office with the niece, who came for
her.
An old man, mute, was provided
with lunch and put on the train.
Gave an old blind man going to
Tennessee, coffee and food and saw
him safely on his way.
A very old lady lost her ticket, the
Agent found it and put her in the
special care Of the conductor, as she
seemed scarcely able to travel alone.
An old blind man and his wife ar
rived and were not met, the Agent To-
Gated the relatives and took the old
couple to their house.
An old lady arrived, 50 confused she
could not remember where she wanted
to 60. She said that she had never
travelled alone before and the noise
and crowds confused her. She was
soon able to give the Agent her
name and address, and she was &C.
companied to her home.
A poor old lady arrived quite i'll,
she wanted to 90 to the Home for the

lncurables. She was taken to the
Travellers Aid Home, where she told
her story; she had children amply able
to take care of her but no one wanted
her, she was taken to the home of
daughter in New Orleans, where she
was cruelty unwelcome and clung to
the Agent when she left. Poor soul.
An old lady 80 y ears, mentally
weak, was put in the care of the
Agent who gave her a note to the
Travellers Aid in New York, in case
her family did not meet her and plac-
ed her in care Of the Conductor. On
his return trip, the conductor reported
that she had made the trip all right.
The Police applied for assistance
for an old woman, they had found her
wandering around, she had through
ticket to a point in Texas. Tho
Agent took charge Of her, she was
crazy and very violent. DR.. O'Hara
gave her temporary shelter and we
communicated with her son who came
for her.
Two sisters and their brother, very
cd people, asked the Agent to secure
rooms for them as they were too IA
tigued to continue on their way to
California without rest, they were
grateful for the attention.
In response to inquiries from the
New York Travellers Aid we located
several young women and found that
they were properly married.
Relatives failed to meet a very
charming old lady SS years old, the

school girls 13 and IA, who were
hanging around on their way from
school. We take or send home all
very young girls who loiter around
the depots and advise their parents
of the danger they run.
A very prettyt.young girl was spend
ing the afternoon in a telephone booth
where chauffeurs were meeting and
talking to her, as she knew one Of
them, who had placed her there. The
Agent took her home to her mother,
who believed the girl was at work.
She belongs to respectable family
living in an attractive home. The
mother was most grateful for the pro-
lection given her young daughter, and
she said if the child had been led
astray it would have killed her. The
Agent reported the name Of the
chauffeur to the Taxi company, and
they said his conduct was against the
rules, and he would be disciplined.
A young lady arrived from New
York on her way to Tampico, the
Agent took her to the Y. w. C. A.
and made all arrangements for her
to complete her trip. She had been
accosted on the train by an insolent
man, who asked her to come with him
and have a good time. On arriving,
she sought the protection Of the
Trevelers Aid Agent, she was placed
in the care of the Conductor, for the
long trip to Mexico. One of the
Agents who was attracted by her, and
fortunately had relatives in Tampico,
gave the girl letter to them.
The Agent assisted a young girl,
who was being annoyed by two men,
who followed her from the hotel, the
Agent ordered them to KEEP out Of the
Ladies waiting room and put the
girl on the train.
A young girl on the train, was cry
ing bitterly and seemed quite ill, she
had been out to supper with some men
the night before, who belonged to the
same theatrical company she was in,
they were enroute to place in Mis-
sissippi. We telephoned the Proba-
tion Officer there who found that she
had recovered and was able to ap-
pear in the play. Wrote to the head
of this company in New York, that
this girl was under age and should be
to her mother, he agreed to
do so.
A very young girl wished to 60 to
a relative, on the way she tried to
slip away from the Agent but failed,
the Aunt said that she was running
away and returned her to her mother.
She reached home safely.
A young girl arrived to visit her SIS
ter, and struck up a friendship with
man on the train who wished to take
her home, the Agent took her to the
Travellers Aid Home, and located her
sister, who sent for the girl, she es-
capped a serious danger.
Took charge Of band Of girl STU
dents going to college in Texas and
directed their sightseeing.
Two young girls passing through
the City, gave the Agent the tddress
of the boarding house they wished to
60 to, it was suspicious. The Agent
accompanied them there when the
|landlady saw the agent she said she
only took men and refused to receive
them. After some difficulty they were
taken to the Trevelers Aid Home and
remained there until a brother in 8
Louisiana town was communicated
with and came for them.
