Miss Terry on Way Home. There was a suggestion of midsummer about the steaming yesterday of the New York of the American line, which started for Liverpool with a full list of passengers. Among those on board were Miss Ellen Terry, actress, and her grand niece. June Ellen Terry Morris, four years old. As a result of an accident to the automobile which conveyed Miss Terry to the Pier, she arrived only a few minutes before the gangway was hoisted. It caused her more violent exercise than she had taken in many years, she said, and made her miss many of her friends who were on the pier to wish her a pleasant voyage. New York Herald, May 2, 1915

Thanks artolog. I found an article in the New York Tribune for May 2. So we'll add the date as well as a fuller version of the grand niece's name the next time we update.
