quently criticised by the press, citing the

TURTLE MEETS AN OLD FRIEND
Impressive Greeting; Glvea to the
Maa Wk Carrei lHn
oa Hla Shell.
Although a large turtle and Hllllard
Throckmorton of Upper Montclair, N. J
had not seen each -other for twenty-two
years, the turtle, when it met Mr. Throck
morton yesterday, recognised him and
shoa-ed its affection. In . the meanwhile,
Mr. Throckmorton had grown from a boy
to a man. .The turtle had increased in size
from a small-siied turtlette to a twenty
pound candidate for the soup pot.
When Throckmorton was a boy he spent
a summer at Green Pond. Then he caught
th turtle and cut his initials and the date,
1SS8. in the shell. The turtle showed a
great fondneps for him even then, but on
day, tiring of being cooped up, it made
its escape.
Throckmorton looked for It, and failing
to find t gave up th hunt. Yesterday
he went In bathing. Thousands of per
sons have gone swimming in Green pond
slnoe the time the turtle was caught and
branded, but It was the first swim Throck
morton had had in the pond in twenty-
two yeara.
H was sa-immlng about yesterday, when
he felt something grasp his toe and throw
a pair of legs around the calf of his leg.
H yelled for help, and made for the shore,
swimming the best he could with his one
free leg. When he got to shor campers
cam to bis aid.
The turtle had taken a firm hold on his
leg. As Herbert Crutchley and Andrew
Tieman, fellow campers, with a poker and
a cold chisel, worked to get its jaws
open, Throckmorton looked at the back
of the reptile. Ther cut In the shell mat
"H. T., 1SS8."
Tears came Into the eyes of Throckmor
ton as he thought of the affection of the
creature and of how It had recognized
him as the friend and playmate of the
years ago. He spoke to It, telling it to
let go, and about the same time its Jaws
were pried apart by on of the pair with
the cold chisel.
"Think of it! It knew me after all theae
years." said Throckmorton. "It cama to me
as soon as 1 went into the water," and he
petted it affectionately with the cold chisel
until he nearly cracked its shell at his
Joy In having recovered the long-lost pet
of hla boyhood.
Th turtle has been j'lared In a crate,
and will find its way to th camp cook
