They never lost hope, they =ald. but the report made by Lieut. ns of the air station. following his recent trip to Canada to assist in organizing the search, led them to helfeve that they might not receive neaws of their husbands until the spring. when the trappers come out m their winter campaign. “Thauk God They Are Safe.” “The news has reached me_sooner han T expected.” said Mrs. Hinton.
