He recently started around the world
with his family by floating steamer.
On the way, in Java, he thought he
would like to see the grand national
steeplechase, and new back to Eng
land from that point, saw the race and

ship at an African port. Landing in
New York, he flew to California, took
another plane to British Columbia,
