DEAR EDITOR: I wish to inquire for my people. I was raised in Albermarle county, Virginia. I belonged to Clifton Brown, a Methodist preacher. After one of the daughters married a Mr. Teril my old boss gave me to them. So Teril, by way of debt, sold me to a speculator in Charlottesville, Va. I was sold again and brought to Mississippi, where I now live. I left my father in Charlottesville, Va. His name was Isaac Jimerson. I left my mother with my old boss. Her name was Peggy Brown. I had four sisters that were grown--Mandy, Sally, Martha, and Linda. Mandy was sold before I left Virginia, and Linda was my father's first wife's child. I had four brothers--Allen, Miner, Kenly, and Tarry; the last two that I named were my father's first wife's sons. My name was Caroline Brown, but it changed since marriage. Address me at Starkville, Miss. CAROLINE HOGAN.
