HAPPY FAMILY Ell

AFTER 1 7 YEARS SEPARATION

Through the work of a Times reporter in Gary yesterday a mother and daughter, the former a resident or Gary and the laiter living in humble circumstances with hr Husband in Constantinople will ber brought together in a happy reunion after IT years of separation. The mother, Mrs. Lena Matcheret was located by the reporter at 2231 W'ahintgon street where with another daughter, Mrs. Sophia Berliant. she conducts a prosperous variety stor;. Sevente-en years ao the jnissing daughter Mme. Li-za Kolesnikoff, wife of a wealthy Russian yomral visited this country with her husband during the. Russian-Japanese war. Mrs. Matcheret was then a resident of Chicago and after a. pleasant three months' visit with her daughter and huband they bad each other fond farewells "and left on a wide tour which took them to Japan. This is the last they had heard from each other until the reporter informed Mrs. Matcheret of her daughter's whereabouts yesterday. Monday of this week the Chicago Tribune printed pictures of General Kolesnlkoff and hts wife and the contents of a letter from Mrs. Kolesnik'.ff asking the paper's assistance in "eating her mother, three sisters and a brother. The letter elated that she fled from Russia where she was traveling with her husband at the, outbreak of the. world's war and after years of wandering an separation during which time they lost their vast fortune, they finally settled in Constantinople whora she writes they have been earning a precarious living, making and selling artificial flowers on the streets. She gave the former Chicago address, 578 Larrabee stret, as the location of her mother, but Mrs. Macheret in the meantime had moved. Following the death" of her husband who owned a cigar factory in Chicago she went to New York where she, visited another daughter, Mrs. Fannie Freeman and five years ago came to Gary where she. purchased a small but thrifty variety store on the south side and has since been residing.

Th trail led from Chicago to Gary where Mrs. Matcheret immediately recognized the picture of her daughter and husband. Both she and her daughter wept with Joy when they learned ihat she was still living as for some, years they had mourned the daughter and sister as dead They thought that they had both been killed in the war. "Oh. we're so happy." they said almost in unison. "If we can only have them here with us. they can hava anything we have. We are fixed comfortably here," said the mother pointing proudly to her little eotre. All that I want is to have htr here. We have four rooms back there," point to the rear of the store, "and there will be. plenty of room. "To think that my poor lltt'e girl, once had everything in the world that her heart desired and now has to go cut on the street and almost beg for her living. 1 am going to send for her at once." She wept again when she read the part of her daughter's letter in which sh said; "If I do not hear from them vry soon. I shall die hera in Constantinople," he wrote, in part. "Will you please publish this in your Journal, and not only inform your readers of the terrible position In which refugees from soviet terrorism find themselves in Constantinople, but restore to her family two souls otherwise doomed to die in this place." Although Mrs. Matcheret la 68 years old, she is wonderfully active for her age. She came to America from Russia two years before tfte world's fair in Chicago where she lived fourteen years. She talks fluently in Russian. German. French and English as also does her daughter. There is also another sister and a brother who will be brought together in the happy reunion. Mrs. Jennie Bockf r, 2440 Cayler avenue, and a son Kliz Matcheret, 1155 Bernice avenue of Chicago. "You must come and see us again soon," she said to the reporter as he was leaving. "I do not know how to thank you for what you have done for us and want you to be here at our party when my daughter comes."
