James Norman Hall of Colfax,
American's ace in the great war who vanished into the wilds of
the South sea islands a year ago, has written the first story of
his new adventure for Harper's Magazine. The story will appear in
the October number. Hall, with his companion, Charles Nordhoff,
who performed distinguished services under the British, American
and French flags in the war, left the states over a year ago for
the islands. No one has heard of the two adventurers until
recently, when they came close enough to
civilization to send back an account of their wanderings.
