A Memory of Slavery Days. CAPE MAY, Dec. 5. - Colonel H. W. Sawyer has in his employ as a cook a col- ored woman, Mrs. Maria Calmikle, who was born of slave parents and was sepa- rated from her mother by the latter's be- ing sold when she was but 1 month old. She is now 31 years of age and has just heard of the whereabouts of her mother and family for the first time. She has been making strenuous efforts to discover them for several years, and received to- day a letter in reply to an advertisement inserted by her in a Richmond, Va., paper, informing her that they were alive and well and living in Richmond. Mrs. Calmikle is very happy at the discovery, and will soon visit them.
