A BABY GLOBE-TROTTER.
CHILD'S RECORD JOURNEY. To have travelled round the world before she was eight months old is the experience of Marion Lucy Holland. She was born in Shanghai, China, October 4, 1920, and left there with her parents for England on November 6. by way of the Pacific Ocean and San Francisco. Then she crossed the American Continent by train to New York, and, leaving New York on December 14, by the Aquitania, she arrived at Southampton on December 21. Her parents, who were on holiday, returned with her from Liverpool, April 15, 1921, via the Mediterranean, Suez, and the Indian Ocean, and reached Shanghai on May 26, 1921, more than a week before she was eight months old. Her grandparents are wondering whether this is a record for a child traveller
