the disaster I feel that it is unnecessary and I couldn't tell your more than the press could, however the childs parents are now living in their cottage at Kearney Lake.
When in Halifax last February I talked with Mr. Mitchell about this same little girl and told him where the people were living. I presume he is in connection also with the Halifax Disaster Record Office and would suggest your either looking up the story in the papers or finding the Hartlens at their cottage. I personally know the story to be absolutely true. Hoping this proves satisfactory to you. I am
Yours truly
