  MR. EDITOR:  I wish to inquire through the columns of your paper for my mother and father.  Father's name is Moses Woods; mother's name Katie Woods. We were owned by a widow by the name of Adolph Cherefan Rashaund, a little below Alexandria, La. Shortly after the Yankees came down I and two brothers, Gustave and Harry Woods, and a young man belonging to the same owner by the name of Tom Wheeler, were taken away and I have not heard from them since. Any information please address me at Houma, LA, care of Rev. F. D. Bowers. 

VICTORIA MOSES.
