MRS. FRANK LEFEBRE COMING ON TITANIC FROM FRANCE REPORTED AMONG THOSE MISSING

Frank Lefebre, of Mystic, has almost given away to despair of ever seeing his wife and four children who were on board the ill fated Titanic. They were coming from France to join him after separation of a year while he worked hard in the mines to accumulate enough money to pay their passage in the steerage.

As soon as he got enough ahead he sent for the oldest son who came over to help him and the two were able to make enough to send for the wife and children about five weeks ago. The happy woman wrote that they would come on the Titanic.

Her name appears among those missing. It was hoped something further might be be heard of her this morning after the survivors landed, but no word has come and now the sorrowing husband and father has almost given up hope. He and his son work at one of the Lodwick mines.
