POET'S GRANDSON RINGING UP FARES
Jessie Holliday Dana (top) and Edmund Trowbridge Dana.
Edmund Trowbridge Dana, Harvard graduate and grandson of the poet Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, is a conductor on a Boston street car line. He admits that shortness of funds forces him to it. He denies that he has become estranged from his wife, formerly Jessie Holliday, English portrait painter, who attracted attention by writing the ritual for their marriage. He says that she is planning to come from England in April and rejoin him.
Young Dana's father is one of the wealthiest citizens of Cambridge.
