DEAR EDITOR:—I wish to enquire for my people. I left my father in Newton county, forty years ago. Father's name was Jack Keith. Mother's name was Charity. She was bought from the widow Harris, by Bird Saffold together with her two children Elmyra and Tanzadia. Mother and I were brought to Harrison county by Robt. Saffold. Sister was carried to Texas by old Bird Saffold. My brother Joseph Thomas left here 19 years ago and went to New Orleans. I have not heard from him since. Any information will be gladly received Address Elmyra Knight, Handsboro, Miss.
