DEAR EDITOR—I wish to inquire for my mother, Lucy Wade, who belonged to one Davis, in Summit, Miss. Davis sold her to Cooney McCray and McCray carried her, with her son and daughter, to Texas. I have heard from her once. She was then in Galveston, Texas. Her son was named Bolden and her daughter Martha Wade. The Dav ses were named Huah and Bab. Huah married a Miss Cage, and Bab a Miss Penny. Mother's husband, Sam Wade, died during the war at Woodville, La. The last time I heard from mother was during the war, and she said that Martha was dead. My name before I was married was Rebecca Wade. Address me at Baton Rouge, La. REBECCA BELL.
