DEAR EDITOR -- I desire to hear from my mother. I have not heard from her but once since the war. She lived with Capt. Barstow, on Hager's Prairie, and afterwards with Capt. D. C. Conta. Her name was Milly and she had two girls -- the oldest Bettie, and the youngest Martha; I now go by the name of Bettie Robinson. Address me, care of A. Arnold, Centreville, Texas.
