Among the many New England people who are di- 
rectly interested in the big European war are the Tops- 
feld relatives of the former Marion Pierce of that town, 
now the wife of Capt. E. H. Pentecost of the British 
Royal Naval Reserve, who is at the front. Up to the 
time of the war breaking out Capt. Pentecost spent a 
great deal of ‘his time in Topsfield and is well known in 
this section. He married Miss Pierce in 1908 while he 
was commander of the Cunard liner, Saxonia, and the 
youngest captain in the service of that company. Captain 
Pentecost has had a varied career. He speaks Portuguese 
fluently and some years ago became a Brazilian citizen and 
was captain of a Brazilian battleship during the last 
Brazilian revolution. Feeling later, however, that he did 
not want to relinquish his English birthright ‘he returned 
home and went into the Navy Reserve and entered the 
Cunard service.
