Great Britain After
That Umbrella Record
LONDON. Sept. 12.—-—(AP). The
recopi of an American having the
same umbrella for 45 years may be
a record in America! but it has
been eclipsed by many inhabitants
of this humid island. where that
implement is as necessary to per-
sonal comfort as a pair of shoes or
a tooth brush.
The appearance in the London
newspaper of a story that Ernest R.
Ackerman of Piainville. New Jer-
sey. had established a record by
carrying his protector from the rain
for two score and five years brought
claims from all sections of Great
Britain for the British record.
The present record is held by
Mrs. White. of Knebworth, Hurts,
who says h‘er umbrella was a wed-
ding present in 1804, sixty one years
ago. It has been' recovered our
twice. The initials engraved on '1-
handle have been almost oblitE'su
ed and the ferrule is badly worn.
Many persons assert that they have
carried their umbrellas between fif-
ty and sixty years.
