Mr. Editor-I wish to inquiae [inquire] for my brother who was sold to Rafe Phillips, of Macon, Ga., in 1857 or 1858, who brought him to Mobile, Ala. I heard that he was sold to the owner of a line of steamboats from Mobile to New Or- leans, but did not learn the man's name. My brother's name was Anthony; we belonged to a man by the name of Varner, and lived at the Judian Springs, Butts county, Ga. There were 6 brothers and 4 sisters. I will give the names of a few of t hem, enough to satisfy my brother, if he gets this, to know that we are still living and anxious to hear from him. Father was named Merida, mother Jane, oldest brother Eli, next Granville, John and Anthony; sisters, Chaney, Amy, Adeline and Elizabeth. Preachers are requested to read this to their congregations, and es- pecially those preaching in Louis- iana. Any information concerning the whereabouts of my Brother will be thankfully received.
