Search for Husbands Body Tests Fortitude of Mrs Atherton
Mrs Heriott Atherton, 50, continues a decades long quest to locate the body of her husband Charles Atherton lost in the Andes near Ecuador. She has led packs of natives and Americans through the hills from Portsmouth to Guayaquil, then into the eastern mountain ranges, seeking any trace of his fate amid mining ventures and scarce letters. After years of peril and isolation, she presses on, planning further expeditions and ship passage to South America to pursue her lifelong search for closure.
