Dec. lie-An Jrish veteran‘ of the Royal-Navy, who‘ met the girl he wanted to marry when he sailed out of here on wartime convoy duties, returned today to find her—as a stowaway. The former engine room artif- ioer was discovered aboard the bride ship Empire Brent when she sailed from Liverpool Dec. 4 and was made to work his pas- sage over. Handed over to immigration officials when the ship arrived hare today, his passport and iden- tification papers were found in order and he was allowed ashore by officers who could not remem- ber his name. He slipped away in search of his girl before reporters could ask him questions. His temporary shipmates were unable to help either. All they remembered about him was the object of his quest and the fact that he was a hard worker “with the gaudlest tie we've ever seen." Two other stowaways were less fortunate. Discovered willie the ship still was in Liverpool Roads. they were sent back to British soil on the pilot boat. llope Abandoned For Trapped In Tenement NEW YORK, Dec. 13 -—-(AP)~ The 24th body was pulled from the ruins of a six storey upper Mon. hattan tenement tonight and more than 200 firemen and pollcg toned on searching for 12 more persona believed buried in the debris.

Crew Still Aboard Drifting Butch Ship (By The Canadian Prose) HALIFLAX, Dec. l3-—R..O.M.P. officials here tonight corrected earlier reports that the drifting and helpless Dutch freighter Moro Glen had been abandoned by her crew of! the Gaspe coast.

As a result of the earlier mes- sages. the R.C.M.P. cutter Irvlnz. steaming to the aid of the Maro Leen, had reduced speed. But upon receipt of the news that the crew was stlli aboard she had increased speed and was expected to reach the ship by noon to- marrow. The Marc Leon was on her way to Amsterdam from Clarke City. on the north shore of the 5t. Lawrence, when her engines fail- ed and her cargo of sulphite pulp had shifted. Last reports on her condition said she was drifting close to the rocky shore of Bonaventure Is- land of! Gaspe.

HALIFAX, Dec. l8 - For the war-wives who arrived here today on the bride ship Elnpire Brent. Canada promises a land of free- dom of living and a place m n. sums happy wartime marriage, which they are sure will stick, "come rough or come tough." Already a number of Canadian war brides have returned to Eng- land claiming that they could not make their marriage a happy“ one in the strange Dominion. But the opinion of many of the 850 brides who arrived today seemed to be that those disgruntled wives would not have made their marriage stick anywhere. For them the ship's arrival hor- alcled the end of a long period of anxious waiting and two setbacks from nature and accidents. The Empire Brent, the ex- Letltla. sailed from Liverpool, Dec. 4, after being in dry dock two weeks for repairs. The l0,- 000-ton ship had set sail two weeks before but was involved in a collision with a small cattle boat in fog-shrouded Mersey and was forced back for repairs. Then when the ship attempted to tleup at dock here today a 34- mile gale forced her away from the pier. She had to drop anchor and lay waiting in the harbor: until the wind subsided. n g - When she ’ flhdlly tied-w“ "at 3.45 p.m., A.S.T., enllbarkation of- flciais moved speedily and had the first brida going down the gangplank and onto trains slightly more than an hour later. .. 18 Killed, 50 Injured In Train Wreck By REED D.
