CHARLES A. MASON Charles Alexander Mason, of 107 West Underwood street, Chevy Chase, M<L, died suddenly an Perry street on Sundiy. He was 77. Mr. Mason, a Washington patent attorney, was vacationing in Cape May with his wife and daughter at the time of his death. Funeftl services were held on Wednesday at 2901 Fourteenth street N. W., Washington, D. C-, with interment in. Oak Hill Cemetery, Georgetown, Md. The body was sent to Washington for burial by Earl L. Hollingsead, local mortician.

families have the distinction of having a father and three sons in the nation's armed forces. Thst is the record of the family of Lieutenant and Mra. William C. Greenfield, of Oakmont, Pa., and Cape May. Lieutenant Greenfield is now attached to the Army ah- base at Lincoln, Neb. Bill, Jr., just 21, was inducted into the Army last October and is now "somewhere in England.’’ Richard, 19, was inducted into the Army last March. He is now stationed at Camp McCain, Miss. Bob, the youngest of the Greenfields, was graduated in June from Haverford High School in Brookline. He is now a member of the Navy's Sea bees, stationed at Camp Peary, Va. , The only man left at home was Blackie,” a black shepherd dog who has been a member of the Greenfield family for many vears. “Blackie" took to wandering away from home, apparently not satisfied with entirely feminine company, for hours, then days at a time. Suddenly he appeared one day at dinner wearing- a harness bearing the insignia of the Coast Guard. He had broken the family tradition; nevertheless he was in the service along with the rest of his menfolk. Mrs. Greenfield; who lives with her n '* '* South sor avenue, upon investigation, was told at the Coast Guard base that the dog had hung about so persistently that they decided he did not have an owner and ‘‘inducted" him. She gave the Coast Guard authorities at the Macomber barracks full permission to keep him, provided he would not be transferred. “Blackie,’’ now called “the Admiral,’’ is a bona fide member of the Coast Guard and walks his post with the men on patrol. He returns home daily for a short inspection tour—between 7 and 8 p. m.—barks his greeting, and returns to his post. Lieutenant Greenfield, a former flying officer, was called into active service from the officers’ reserve a month after Pearl Har-

bor.

The Greenfields are well known in Cape May where they have been summer residents for years. Four years ago they resided here during the winter, and the three boys attended Cape May High School.
