DEAR EDITOR-- Mr. Ed. Denton, a son of Capt. John B. Denton, and my mother's brother (white), it is supposed, left Texas some twenty years ago. It was my mother's last request that I should find out where he was and whether he was living. He has many relatives here in Texas who want to know his whereabouts. If he is living he will confer a favor that can never be repaid by addressing his nephew at Denison, Texas. P. SULLIVAN BROWN. California and Oregon papers please copy.
