By the Associa . SAVANNAH, Ga, June 1.—Miss Florence Martus, widely known to sea- | faring men and to those who travel in ships as Savannah’'s “waving girls,” today will give her last salute to vessels | entering and leaving this port. Miss Martus, central figure of a| romance woven about lonely Elba Is- land, on which she has lived for nearly half a century, plans to move into Savannsh on the retirement today of her brother, George W. Martus, who has been keeper of the lights along the Savannah River channel since 1887. ‘The story sailors tell about Miss Martus concerns & sweetheart lost at sea soon after she went to live on Elba Island as a girl of 19. In memory of him, they say, she has waved a greet- ing to incoming and outgoing vessels for 41 years—a white cloth by day and a lantern by night. Steamers sound their whistles thrice in her honor and | what few ufllna vessels still ply the | river dip their flags as they pass the tiny cottage of the river's edge.
