MR. EDITOR:--I desire to know the address of John, Diana and Jerry Yates, whose father I am. Left them at Fair Bluff town, Columbus county, N.C. It has been 10 years since I left North Carolina for Robinson county, and thence to Middleton, Miss., in the charge of Eli Stevens. My sons were both picking up brush with old Anthony Gowens the day I left. Their mother, Fanny, died in 1861. I am now old, weak and blind; wish to hear from my children before I die. Address me at JEREMIAH YATES. Gonzales, Tex.
