DEAR EDITOR- I wish to inquire for my three children. Mollida Barnett, the first one, left me about 40 years ago, was bought by specu- lators [speculators] in Charlotte, N.C., and car ried [carried] to Columbus, Ala. Mary Slaughter was carried from Canton to New Orleans. She belonged to Lewis Slaughter, who sold her in New Orleans, where he kept a tav- ern [tavern]. Daughter Ellen used to be- long [belong] to Bill Smith, and he sold her to William Buckles who carried her to Texas. When she left me, about twenty years ago, she had one child. They both went from M[illegible]n Co., Miss. When Mollie was s[illegible]d he went by the name of Mollinzie Dinkins. Address me at Canton, Miss., in care of W.B. Ricks. My name was Eliza Dancey when the children went away, but now it is ELIZA HANDY.
