Reply came last week from "Record" reader Mrs. H. Atkinson, Palmerston North. Long Jack is her cousin, Jack Bo Sander. He left New Zealand with his mother and father about 30 years ago. Mrs. Atkinson is now writing to Mr. Gerald Nairn, at present visiting New Zealand from Syria, to hear first-hand news of her long vanished cousin.
