A Hermit For 50 Years

(British United Press.) LONDON, Sept. 22.—-Fifty ‘years ago in the town of Great Canfield. in Essex, a healthy but sensitive young man named James Mason had his love for a woman rejected. On the impulse of the moment he made a vow in isolate himselfirom the world for the rest. of his lite in such a manner that he could never look upon the face of a woman again, and never see or speak to any man except his brother Thomas. _ The brother, who is now 6C, and two years younger than James, also vowed that he would devote his life to the service of the hermit and guard him always from intrusion. _ On the afternoon of Sept. 5. 1877. they purchased two acres of ground remote from the possibility of huln-_ an association, and at night. began‘ to build a fortress in which James would be secure against intercourse with mankind. There cannot (lXlSl. anywhere a home with such extlfa- ordlnary surroundings.

The most direct approach to tlic amazingly conceived retreat is a nar- row oak-lined lane oil the lonely Dunmow-Great Canfield-Bacon Elltl road. After half o ullle the roadway ends, but for the next 800 yards there is a grass-covered track moth.- by the goings and comings of Thos. Mason during five decades.

This track vanishes, too,‘ into what appears to be a pleasant. piece of meadowland.
