I would like to know the whereabouts of Mrs. Eliza Clark, formerly Mrs. Eliza Husher. My history is a peculiar one. I saw in The Freeman that Mrs. Eliza Husher wanted to know the whereabouts of her sister, Mrs. Sallie Clark and her brothers Tip, Tobe and the rest of her brothers. Sister Sallie Clark is my grand-mother and I, Lucy Johnson, am the only grand-daughter surviving, and I have two brothers alive. Sallie Clark had nine children and they are all dead; the last of all died four years ago in May, an my grand-mother has been dead eight years. When she was alive she used to tell me about her relations in America. She told us that she was sold to a slave buyer with about two hundred more slaves, and they were bound to New Orleans On board of the ship there were two white men who were ill treated and they agreed with the slave men that as soon as they reached the "hole in the wall" they would give a signal and they would take the captain and crew and put them in irons and make sail for Nassua. They did so and by so doing my grand-mother and many more were landed in Nassau. Many are dead but some who came over are still living. This is the way that we came to be in Nassau. I want to inform Mrs Eliza Clark that she is Mrs, Eliza Husher and that I would be glad if she would write me or write to The Freeman. May God bless The Freeman and its undertakers. Address all letters to Mrs. Lucy A. Johnson, Nausau, [Nassau] Bahamas.
