Mr. Editor—I desire to find my people. I used to belong to Dr. Brown. My father's name was Obe Powells and my mother's name was Leanther Brown. She died when I was a babe. She was on her way out to Texas when she died, and I was given to a man who was named Parker and taken back to Alabama. This Dr. Brown came to Texas and married a lady named Mrs. Elvira Strick- land, who lived in Rust county, Texas. Then the said Mr. Strick- land, relation of Mrs. Strickland, who married, brought me to Texas iin the 8th or 9th year of my age, which was about 8 or 9 years be- fore Emancipation. I am now mar- ried and am the mother of 5 child- dren. If there is any whereabouts of my father, Obe Powells, I would be thankful that any one would ad- dress me, his daughter, Caroline Warford—original name Caroline Powells. Address Rev. Allen Thomas, Pitts Bridge, Burleson county, Texas.
