Dear Editor: - I desire to inquire for my brother, Simon Miller, sisters Biddy and Pearlina, mother Silva, in Pittsylvania county, Virginia. I lived with Dr. Edward Wethers, and left there in 1867. My brothers were living with Tom Wooden, near widow Millers' farm. Stepfather was Spencer Coles. I left him on Whitter's farm, near Danville. My young master was Charley Miiler, and I got my hand cut off in the molasses mill in 1862. My address is now, Corinth, Alcorn county, Miss. JOSEPH MILLER.
