Thi date of hia birth, ?s given on his passport, was February 10, 1774, and this was based, said his great, great grandson, Ahmet Mussa, who accompanied him, on un actual re- i cord in the possession of the Turkish government. , Yellow und wrinkled, with a hawk- i like nose, bristling grey moustache, < and lively, curious eyes, weirdly | alive in their deep, sunken sockets, < Zaro Ahga sat in the sun on the deck : of the steamer Sinai and talked of war- and women and the third set of j teeth that he grew at the age of 106. i "They weren't very good teeth," , he suid in Turkish to his great great : grandson, who repeated it in French i to his patron, Assim Redvan. j "Not very good teeth, more like baby teeth, and they lasted only 16 years." r I Zaro Agha has been married 12 i times and had 36 children all of * whom are now dead save one daughter who was born when he was 06. He has lost all track of the nuin>ber of his grand children, great grand children, and great great grand children. "My first wife I married when I was 20," he said, "and 1 always got along with all my wives very nicely. "Of the descendants through my later wives that I married since I moved to Constantinople 120 years ago, 1 have some record. 1 know that before the World War I had 22 grent grand children living in Constantinople." "But 1 was married first in the land of my birth in Asia Minor, and of my descendants there I know nothing." For 112 years, until he was 135, Agha says he worked as a porter. There was first a war against Napoleon, in Syria and Kgypt, he said, and he fought in that, in the Turkish army. Then there was the war with the Cireeks?"oh, more than a hundred years ago, I can't remember the dates"?and four wars with Russia, in the last of which he said he served as n volunteer at the age of 103. "I was in the artillery," he explained, "and carried cannons on my shoulders." Agha "indignantly denied a report that he had divorced his eleventh wife to marry the present Mme. Agha ? "she'- young, only 66"?who waits for him in Instanbul. "Me? 1 nver divorced any of my wives." he grunted. "I got along with them all, very nice, and they all died." "Now women-?I always am interested in them. I like them, brunette best, and plump." He sighed and went on: "In my youth I had n very good time. Yes, a very good time. How long did my youtfi last, you want to know? Oh, until I was 105. I'm r getting old since then, see? and held out one of his claw-like hands, covered with skin that was brown and dry and almost transparent. He pulled the skin up into a little fold mi the back of his hand, and the I fold remained there until he smoothed it out. j Agha again today said he had nev| er tasted alcohol in his life, nor tobacco.

The finding of the sea tortoise by Mr. and Mrs. Oscar J. Kennedy, K. K. Friar, Mrs. W. E. f'ovington, Miss Elizabeth Smith and Mrs. Dora Hughes, all of Sumter, attracted considerable interest among the people on the beach and much excitement among the youngsters. A large crowd quickly gathered, some of whom had never seen a turtle before. Four people were unable to lift i it up, giving an idea of its large size and heaviness. It was the largest turtle seen here in many years-. Some are endeavoring to establish it as a record for the Horry county coast.
