MR. EDITOR:--I desire to inquire for my grandmother and children. We belonged to Mrs. Peggy Achili. She lived in South Carolina, Winsborough county; my mother died there when I was three weeks old. Mrs. Achilli moved us to Mississippi, and stopped in Yallabusha county. I was there until I was 12 years old. After this we were carried to Greenwood, there to the trading yard and sold at a sheriff sale. We were bought by Ben Walters, who lived in this city; he gave me to his daughter, Mary Simmons, and she brought me to Texas. My grandmother's name was Lucy Walter; her children Rachel, Cherry and Sam Walter; my father was Jack Walter; my mother was Mary Achilli. Since I have been free I took the name of Ed. Kneeright. Address Ed. Kneeright, at La Grange, Fayette co., Texas, in the care of M. Smith, pastor.
