AFTER MANY YEARS.
AFFECTING MEETING OF TWO SISTERS.
Special Telegram to the Inter Ocean.
BATTLE CREEK, Mich., Nov. 19.--Forty
years ago Julia and Emeline, two sisters,
were slaves upon the plantation of a master
by the name of Hall, in Kentucky. Emeline
left her sister one night, and with a party of
fugitives crossed the Ohio River at Cincinnati,
and by means of the underground railroad
made her escape to Michigan and
thence to Battle Creek, where she has since
resided, the wife of Joseph Skipwarth, now
dead. In all these years she has never heard
of her sister until recently, when by accident
she learned that she was now Mrs. Julia
Lyon, living on a farm near Troy, Ohio, in
good circumstance. Yesterday Mrs. Lyon
arrived in this city, and the meeting
of the two sisters after forty
years separation was very affecting. Mrs.
Skipmarth is one of our most respected
colored ladies, and the two happy sisters
have received a number of calls to-day from
our leading citizens. The reminiscenses of
slavery days and their escape by the underground
railway, out of the changes which
have since taken place, are of the most interesting
nature.

AGED EX-SLAVE.
Left a Fortune of $50,000 by His
Former Master.
Benton Harbor, Mich., Sept 29.
--Robert Busby, an old ex-slave,
was today advised by a Charleston
(S. C.) lawyer that his former master,
Bradford North, who died four
years ago, has left him an inheritance
of $50,000. The old planter
left an immense estate, and his
fondness for Busby, who had been
his slave for 33 years, led him to
remember him in his will.
Ever since the death of North
the executors of his estate have
been searching for Busby. Advertisements
have appeared in all the
principal newspapers, making inquiries
for his whereabouts. One
of these was recently seen by a
friend of the old ex-slave and he
was advised of his good fortune.
Busby will leave at once for Charleston
to secure his inheritance.
He is 60 years old.--Cincinnati
Enquirer.

SEPARATED FOR FORTY YEARS. Strange History of William Davis and His Sister, Once Slaves. Niles, Mich. Aug. 10. - Forty years ago William Davis and his sister Mary were slaves in the family of James Matlock, a rich Georgia planter. Just before the war Matlock died and William and Mary were sold to pay the debts of the estate. They were parted and for forty years neither heard of the other. After the war William took the name of Davis and came north to Niles. He began the dray business, amassing a small fortune. To-day he learned that his sister is still alive and was in San Francisco. She sought out her brother William that she might leave her fortune of $150 000 to him. When she was sold she was bought by a wealthy wom who took her to California. when this woman died she had no relatives to leave her money to, and so made Mary her heir. Mary is now 83 years old.
