A day later he memory, returns home and embraces his faithful wife on Christmas Day. How corny can you get?Ask James and Anne McDonnell, who played that script in real life this week. “It’s like a fairy tale,” Anne Mc- donnell said Friday in the thick brogue of her native County Cork, Ireland. Ever since her husband vanished March 29, 1971, and even though she had him declared dead in 1976 in order to get on with her life, she says she kept “hoping, hoping, hoping, maybe some day” he would return. She stayed in the same house in this New York City suburb and kept her telephone listing under his name. On Christmas morning, Mrs. McDon- nell was fixing a late breakfast when the doorbell rang. “Hello Anne,” said the 64-year-old man at the door. “It was something out of the blue,” Mrs. McDonnell said. “He had a beard and looked like Santa Claus. I thought it was a joke, then I recognized him. He's so thin now.” McDonnell told his wife he had spent the last 15 years in Philadelphia as Jim Peters, a short-order cook, bartender and Santa for kids in an VICTORIA (CP) — Provincial taxes on gasoline, diesel and several other fuels will go up on New Year's Day, says the Finance Ministry. The tax on clear gasoline will increase by .41 cents a litre, bringing the new rate to 8.64 cents a litre. Also increasing by. .41 cents a litre is the tax on clear diesel, sending the new tax rate to 9,08 cents a litre. to increase Jan. 1 The tax on aviation fuel, marked gasoline, marked diesel, some marked bunker, marked propane and butane will rise by .14 cents a litre, bringing the new rate to 3.02 cents a litre. Marked bunker for marine use will have an increase of .02 cents a litre, bringing the new rate to 1.44 cents per litre. Marked gasoline, with a lower tax, is sold for specific uses, such as to farmers for use in farm vehicles. It cannot be used for regular highway travel. There is no tax change for natural gas used in pipeline compressors, with the rate remaining at 1.1 cents for every 810.32 litres used. The provincial fuel tax rates are reviewed every three months accord- ing to an indexing formula first intro- duced in 1981.

The lost memories of his life in Larchmont flooded back and he came home on the next train. Mrs. McDonnell said she thought amnesia was a possibility through the years she waited, supporting herself as a nurses’ aide.
