thought she recognized the voice and
upon reading in the newspaper an
account of the appeal hastened to Chi
Cago.
1t appeared that It was a familiar
decoration on the hat of her aunt,
Mrs George Griffiths, which aroused
tho girls dormant memory, when her
relative faced her yesterday. "Oh,
the bird!" she said, as her Dyes, re-
i1ected, recalled memories as she
espied her aunts hat. Then followed
greetings by name to Mrs. Griff1ths
and Miss Genevieve Sullivan, who had
accompanied the aunt.
Miss Mcguire, 20 years old, was a
student at Washington University.
Il remember leaving home to go to
the university" she said, "and was
walking on a. path to the campus.
The next thing ! knew l was in the
Chicago hospital"
Upon her arrival here the girls
memory again took on a spurt of
rividness and she chatted eagerly as
she recognized familiar landmarks
She had not been missed from homo
because her father. printer,
thought she was visiting suburban
relatives.
