Comment Is Withheld on
Possibility of Return

MINEOLA, L. l., Dec. 2.-MisS
May Gledhill, comely Canadian SIX
Girl" caught in the tangled Wet
woven by her own love affair, has
conferred with her mother, but
neither will say if she and her baby
will be returned to her Montreal
home.
There are no legal bars to such
action.
The unwed mother Of Sonny,
the 2-year-old son of a philander-
ing engineer, William Conner, to-
day was reported recovering rapidly
from her collapse Of last Saturday
which focused public attention on
her strange love triangle"
Sonny" is playing gleefully about
the home leased for his mother by
his father before he went to Yer
mont state penitentiary to serve a
sentence for forgery. He is cared
for by Corners wife, Inez, who went
to live with her husbands adopted
family" after he was convicted.
Wife Cares for Baby
Mrs. Conner is caring for Sonny
whom she calls My Baby" on a
schedule-so much milk, so much
cereal, so much spinach, and certain
hours for sleep and play-all &C
cording to the book
The ski Girls" Mother. Mrs.
Peel Gledhill, arrived at Nassau
county hospital Tuesday night fol-
the talk with the daughter who hao
concealed the birth of her child
from her parents, but not from the
wife of its father.
Meanwhile, additional letters
from the convict to his wife ano
mistress we're quoted in published
interviews with Mrs. Conner. She
has said that letters to both her
self and Miss Gledhill have arrived
in the same envelope and have
been read by both.
Letters Are Quoted
The new letters tended to show
that, while the two women always
we're friendly toward each other
they did not always hold Conner in
their affections. One quoted note
dated Nov. o. last, said:
Dearest May-Why do you hate
me so? I know I have done you
wrong and am paying for it dearly
and you will never know how 1 SUI =
fer. am praying God that you or
Sonny will never suffer mentally
the way I do"
In another quoted letter to his
wife dated Nov. 10, 1881, Conner
told of his love for Miss Gledhill
and his annoyance at recent acts.
He wrote:
Dear Inez-You will realize how
great my love for May has always
been and is more than ever now
and you must realize that I have
nothing but worry and won't you be
kind enough to try to show her how
she is wrong for Sonny's sake only"
In February of last year Conner
gave his wife a copy of Shakes
peare's sonnets with this written on
the fly leaf:
ITO my dear wife whom I have
never ceased to love. Ernest"

ter service, ancestor of The coast
guard, performed brilliantly. During
the War of 1872 its vessels, assisted
by small gunboats, protected our coast
al trade from the ravages of the hos
tile ships sent out by Great Britain,
1.-THE Mistress of the Seas" to harass
our coast towns and our shipping. In
the Civil war 1t had a part in both
naval engagements and in blockade
work.
Thirteen revenue cutters co-operated
with the navy and seven with the
army during the Spanish-American
war. One of these, the McCulloch,
helped Dewey at the Battle of Manila
Bay and won special commentator
from the admiral and another, the
Hudson, took part in the action at
Cardenas, Cuba. The officers and the
crew Of the Hudson were awarded
medals by congress for their rescue
work Of the torpedoboat. Winslow, in
this engagement.
This fine tradition was carried on
by the coast guard service during the
World war. On April IL. 1917 Pres
ident Wilson modified the coast guard
and the lighthouse service under the
command Of the secretary of the navy
for the express purpose of resisting
the submarines, which it was virtual
ly certain that Germany would send to
attack our coast. How real that dan
ger was and the important part which
the coast guard played in curbing the
ravages of these deadly under-sea
fighters was revealed for the first time
two years ago when Little, Brown and
company published William Bell
Clark's book, when U-Boats Came to
America"
In addition to operating in home
waters, the boats of the coast guard
service also served on the other side
of the Atlantic. Six of it's cruising
cutters were sent abroad to join the
naval forces in the war zone, princi-
pally as ocean escorts working from
England to Gibraltar. While engaged
in this service, the Tampa was sunk
by submarine and rs of the coast
guards 1872 casualties were recorded
as the result of that disaster.
Chaplains, coast guardsrhen-they
also served and died. But there is
still another group whose sacrifices
are too little known and whose mem

day. They are the 271 heroic women,

laid down their lives. Although none
was killed in action. three were wound
ed by enemy fire. Two lost their lives
and one was seriously wounded in an

nificance for more Americans than
ever before.
When we speak of our World war
dead, we usually think Of the soldiers,
sailors and marines, the fighting men
who gave their lives on the battlefields
of France or in the fathomless depths
of the Atlantic. But there were others
besides soldiers, sailors and marines
who also served and died for their
country, and it is fitting that they, too,
should be honored on Memorial day.
The title Of chaplain brings to the
mind the picture Of man of peace
rather than of a man of war. Yet,
written in the annals of the great con-
flict Of 1914 to 1918 is the record of
more than one example of heroism in
battle, of Indifference to danger and
Of unselfish devotion to duty by these
s's0ldiers Of the Cross" And in Ar
iington National cemetery stands a
cenotaph which recalls the fact that
% chaplains of the United States
army, men Of all faiths and creeds,
gave their lives for their country. On
the bronze tablet affixed to this stone
marker are inscribed these names:
Albert D. Bell. AurenusT. Howard.

Thomas NJ. Bulla. John f. Mccarthy.

Below the names is inscribed this
epitaph for them: Greater love hath no
man than this, that man lay down his
life for his friends" and ITO you from
failing hands we throw the torch-be
yours to hold it high"
In Arlington also stands another me
mortal recalling the sacrifice of men
who served in branch of the United
States service which is too little
known to most Americans. This is
the stone obelisk, erected in 1923, in
memory of the 1872 officers and enlisted
men Of the United States coast guard
who lost their lives during the World
war.
