A Romance of Slavery.

Columbus (Ohio) Journal.

A very pretty story is told of the restoration to his children of an old colored man who was a slave before the late war. He belonged to one master, while his wife and two children, one of whom is now a minister and the other a Columbus coachman, were owned by another man, who liberated them at the time of his death. The three came to Ohio immediately, and had never seen or heard of the husband and father until, through aid rendered by the father of a well-known Columbus grain dealer, he was found in Washington, D. C.
