Edward Garrison

After more than a quarter of a century - Edward Garrison Returns to Bridgeton 
after a Long Absence

After an absence of twenty-eight years, Elwood Garrison, a former Bridgeton 
boy, has been visiting his old friends here. Garrison left here when about 
seventeen years old and he had but little of this world's goods to bother him.

Now he is half owner in a Western cattle ranch, not startlingly rich, as the 
story books would have it, but possessed of a very nice fortune such as they 
are reckoned in the West. 

Leaving here and his old friends, Garrison started for the unbroken West and 
after covering a good part of the new country he finally settled in Arizona, 
where he is associated in an immense ranch as half owner.

Having occasion to come as far as Chicago with a large shipment of horses, he 
decided to drop back to New Jersey.

At Port Norris he has some relatives and he wanted to see the home of his 
boyhood again. This week he has been looking up the boys he used to know.

All grown to manhood, they have lots to tell and the old experiences to 
recount.

Mr. Garrison sees many changes in Bridgeton during his absence of more than a 
quarter of a century.
