We are wondering how many of the readers of this section have sought for an answer to their genealogical problems in the records of wills. Again we see not many hands raised. Why? Each one must answer this for himself. The author of Out of the Books the present manual for the Genealogical Training Classes in Sunday school has this to say about wills: 'Wills are indispensable in compiling fami- Mrs. Inla Embry of Logan Tenth ward, and some of her friends went down south last June to find their genealogy.

Start On Time We found very little in Illinois except what we already knew, but traced a family of Hamilton's into Indiana. As this was my mother's line I was especially interested in It. When we arrived at Indianapolis, we stopped and went into the state house, and over to the Archives across the street. Here we found my Hamilton's. Found that in 1800 a William Hamilton had a land grant of 400 acres in Wayne Co., Indiana. But we found that we would have to go to the counties President Henry A!

As Bertis was to be in Washington by Monday morning and this was Fri- lilDGWAY day, we did not go up to Wayne county, but went on. On Saturday night we stopped about 80 miles from Washington, had a good nights rest, all bathed, and pressed our clothes so we would look presentable in Sunday school the next day. Next morning we drove through the country side, and enjoyed it more than we had any place so far. We were not in a tiurry and It had been raining so that everything looked fresh and clean. The rhododendrons were still in bloom in the mountains as well as many other beautiful flowers. Seemid like coming home sure enough to Robbie and me as it had been so long since we had seen the woods. Flag Week We passed through Frederick, and as it was' Flag Week we saw many flags of course, and saw a large flag hanging from the very window that Barbara Fritchie had hung it years ago. Leora was very interested in the story and must have a copy of the poem. We arrived at the city limits of Washington about nine o'clock. Bertis had never been here before and was a little confused as to streets, and I could not remember very well as we did not come in this way before when we were here. So we pulled off to one side of the street and got our map of the city out and marked out our course to follow to get to the chapel, which is on 16th Btreet We had decided to drive on down the highway to Dupont Circle and then back up to 16th. Washington is like no other city in America, and unless you know your way around it is rather dangerous to try to take short cuts. You will end up miles from where you wish to go. Just as we hnd decided that we would drive this way and were about ready to start, a car pulled up by us and a gentleman leaned out and asked us if we were looking for any particular place. He had seen our foreign license plate and knew that we were probably lost. We told him that we would like to go to the Mormon chapel. He told us to follow him and he would show us the way, and he did. It was just about six or eight blocks from where we were. We arrived at the chapel about' a quarter after nine, too late for Priesthood Meeting and too early for Sunday School, so we walked around and explored the building while we waited. It was a very nice church, and looked like it belonged to the neighborhood In which it was placed. We noticed that there were many churches of different denominations, as well as legation buildings all around it. Ours looks , as nice as Rny of them. When we went into Sunday School and looked around, we felt very much at home. There were so many Utah and Idaho boys and girls there, and they seemed very glad to sea us, and we were surely glad to see them. We. saw Marian Maughan, the sister of our own Tenth ward YWMIA president. WJien we marched out to the class room so many people came and spoke to us it seemed like a reunion. Among these awere Fern Campbell Ward, and Vanese Barker Matthews. We went into the genealogy class of course, and listened to the members tell of the work they were doing in Washington. Vaneso told of her success in finding a lady that her mothei had been looking for for several years. Mrs. Barker had an old diary hat had been her grandmother's and in it she had mentioned her grandHannah Bristow." The mother, family had hunted and hunted but had never been able to find any Bristow's who would in any way fit. Just before Vanese had come back to Washington, April 1 of this year, she had looked at the old diary again, with a magnifying glass, and decided that the name could be Brewster, or Bristol. So were these other names as sne had gone into the maybe Congressional Library in Washington and found the very lady in question, and the name really was "Bristol. She' was surely delighted and as this had been two weeks before, she had not yet finished copying all the data that she had found. Hundreds of names, for it brought in other names also. Other people also told of the success they had had in the Congressional Library so of course I I could hardly wait to get into it. (Next Week In Washington, D. C.) RESEARCHERS USE LIBRARY FACILITIES There was a group of seventeen genealogical searchers crowded into the genealogical section of the Cache County library last Thursday afternoon, according to Mrs. Hans Anderson, the genealogical missionary who was in charge that day. Best of all, they were finding interesting genealogical Information. Elder Wallace Jameson ana four others from Shelley, Idaho, were among the number. Elder Jameson found in a little genealogical magazine that has been coming to the library, a series of articles tracing his family history Mary Ann Phoenix, b L CHADWICK VESTFROAY Aftr Itllitiff Jeffery Hnmmonil ind Erie Eorhea (hat another uhlp la looktnir for the Sonora, the telephone ring and Ihe same myntertotaa voire for Jim Mallory.

He cupped his cigaret in his hands to hide the glow, then turned in his chair to look across the patio. It was too dark to make out faces, but one of the two men was Eric Forbes. The two men walked through the patio toward the rear of the house. Their voices died away, but Jim had caught this much: Eric Forbes was afraid Mary Larsen would tell him, Mallory, something. Jim stepped on his cigaret and took after the two, moving silently across the dark patio. He wanted a look at Forbes' companion. At the rear corner of the big house he paused. He saw Forbes going on around the house while the other man walked ' toward the drive where a car was parked without lights. He drove off without switching on the lights. Jim frowned and turned back toward the patio. His movement was so abrupt he collided with someone. He heard a startled Oh! as he grasped a soft arm. He saw then that it was Mary Larsen. She was trembling and her face was a startling white oval in the darkness. So it was you ! she said, as if she were breathless. I heard from the rumpus room. You and that man What did you hear, beautiful? I heard you mutter that the Sonora was worth a cool million." You what? He stared, bewil dered and startled. You didnt bear me say that. That was Eric Forbes and a stranger. He drew her by the arm into the dark rumpus room, afraid Forbes might take a notion to came back. He found the Mary was pale in the sudden light. He asked, What were you do tng in here hr the dark?" light-switc- h. . that Forbes companion bad lighted a cigaret behind the house, ducking his head down as he did it. "Lets see the thing." Mary didnt obey. She was staring at the case, with wide and frightened eyes. He could see initials engraved on it. He stepped close, reaching for the case, but Mary held it behind her. No! She said, shrilly, and trembled. He reached for her, meaning to take the thing. She struggled and broke away. He took another step toward her, then the suave voice of Eric Forbes halted him. Don't you understand when a lady says no, Mallory? Jim faced the man. Forbes eyes werent piers:, nt, and steel was In his voice as he said, "Perhaps youd like to apologize. I made a "Sorry," he said. mistake. Mary just stood there holding .the cigaret case behind her without speaking. Jim swung about and left. . y. i wrrrflGMT. NEA tERVICC, Just just thinking.

Jim went down for an plunge, and found Mary there before him. She was sitting on the edge at the far end, and he dove in and swam to her. He grasped her ankles and gave her a little pull. Come on in, the waters fine, he said. Ill race you down and back. Her eyes examined him In a remote impersonal way, and she put her feet against his chest and gave him a stout push. He went under, and when he came up she was getting up to go to the house. He climbed out and said, Wait early-morni- ng t4l INC last night. I guess I do seem like a mug, always manhandling you. But this Sonora business has me jittery. There are a lot of queer angles to it. I thought that cigaret case might give me some sort of lead. I think you know a great deal about that cigaret case. What do you mean? I think you dropped it. Erlo Forbes thinks so, to . I showed it to him. Ke says yen must have dropped it." He does, eh? Listen, Mary, you recognized that thing. You were afraid to let me see It, yet you let Forbes see it. Forbes Isnt your friend. Hes going to have Hammond ship you back to New York, to get you out of the way. He thinks you cant be trusted. I I dont believe that! But she did believe it, and it frightened her. Jim said, Mary, where did Forbes say I got that cigaret case? Off the Sonora, when you went down to her, she replied, and her voice had a strange choked-u- p sound. How did he know it came from the Sonora? He diSn't know, but I did. It belonged to the Sonoras first mate, Bert Halloran, who was lost when the ship went down. I know because I gave It to Bert Halloran just before the Sonora sailed from New York the last time. Jim Mallory said nothing. Ha understood the grief he saw in this girl's eyes. Bert Halloran had meant a lot to her. She had been In love with him. Tell me the truth for once, Did you drop Jim, she said. that case last night? Did you find it on the Sonora? He would have answered, but Jeffery Hammond came up behind them. Hammond said, Id like to talk over the deal now, Mallory. Very well, sir," Jim said. Ha stood up. I'll see you later, .J Mary. He didnt see Lois come to the pool a moment later.
