The la.lv. who looked as if she knew just what was needed for th children's care, told the reporter of a very pathetic story from what she had gathered of the wandering fam ily of 'ath-r and children.

Robert Mackey turned hi.' ace towards the old North State and started back on a homeward journey Out of money, he received from th kind strangers out in the little town of Wickersham enough for the funer al expenses and financial aid in his transportation back to North Caroli na. The journey seemed to have l roeress-d smoothly until the mourn ful little family reached St. Louis. Mere one of the children took measles and cecame very ill. The rest of the ftory was gathered from one of the passengers, a promi nent citizen of Spartant.urir. who was returning from a western trip on th same train with the man and his hildr. n .Mh-.r with this e.'od idv. ho .! - s-emed ever ready I" wait upor k chill with loving hands and gav. woroja.

"When we reached Kr.ogville I tele phoned for a doctor and asked him t. I examine the children. They all look- j d sick enough to ! put in the hos- j pital. I telephoned over to th hos pital, and they told me that the could not take the children. I then vent to th- Southern railroad station and asked for a berth for the little children and their father to Ashe-j vllle. I was frst told that they could j not allow . children to travel on j the train :r. such a condition. I ask ed. 'What are you going to do. let th children die here? Tou have go to do i-omnhing for them.- and when the -o'd lady (I never learned her r.am-i came up and pleaded for the little' ones the railroad man allowed us to buy the man and children a ticket in the day coach to - their , destination. "So ou find us here on the tran That ood lady gav- up her Pullman i..-rth ticket which she had from 51. Louis to SasjunerriUe, S. C, and to my certain knowledge has sat up with the little sick children all night.' never for a minute closing her eyes j n sleep. The father of those little , tots is a brave man. What he .111 gone through with would, to my mind. nearly kill . .1 ordinary person. Only one time have I heard him complain md that was when we were a little ways out of Asheville. he said This Is aNiut to ret next to me.' When we were in Knoxvllle the I aasenrers made up a subscription fund for him. and with what we gave him. I think he can get along for. some itme without financial aid after he gets to Hendersonville. among his own people." Thus the story ends.
