Urged Them On
How often. iii the days when
in ireland. we were the recipients
of such great hospitality and
help, did ! think Of those good
friends OF ours in the fatherland
who had helped us 80 practically
with the funds that we required
so much and who. after we left
them. were still helping us with
the gifts OF their hearts and their
good wishes for our success.
I have thought OF those friends
in many peculiar places and un-
der all manner Of circumstances
since we left the shores Of the
fatherland. Always they have
been a star shining In the sky
OF night to keep us pushing on
ward and onward when. at the
time, all hope for success, and
often for life itself, seenld to have
fled.

RaldonneII and scanned the heavens

and Of our Irish friends i thought,
time and again. as we were
skirnming the angry waves In the
effort to reach America When
all hopes seemed to be gone,
their friendship has been present

towards our goal.
These friends Of ours; these
friends who aided me when the
responsibility for financing the ex-
uedftfon was mine, these other
friends who gave so cheerfully OF
their help when we were in Ire
land. these 80 hogpitable friends OF
Greenly Island and Of Canada who
did so much for US after we ar
rived, have taught me that LIES

tons Of men to one another, In

Honored By All
Where, I would ask. could one
expect to feel so warm q hand
clasp Of comradeship? From the
moment when our wheels touched
the ice of the lake here at
Greenly we have been the hon.
ored guests of each person we
have met. No sooner had we
come from the skies to lkA1d, at a
time when all hope seemed to be
lost to us, than the hand Of
fellowship was extended to us.
Beginning with the Monsieur Lee
templier, who attends 10 the
lighthouse for the Canadian gov
eminent and whose first thought
was for our comfort, we were
almost swanped with the good
ness. Letemplier conducted as
to his own humble abode,
brought forward supplies from
his larder, none too amply
stocked. because there has been
no supply ship to Greenly since
last autumn and none can come
for weeks vet. Therefore. the
ISetemplier larder is not equipped
to stand these tremendous strains
upon its provisions.
Praises Schiller
But Letemplier gave Of his
nrecious hoard as though he
were in Bremen or Dublin or
New York and had only to tele-
phone to the nearest provision
merchant to bring new supplies
OF food by the next delivery.
I would like Mr.. Letenplier to
know how deeply I appreciate
everything that he has done out OF
the great kindness Of his heart.
