DEAR EDITOR—I wish to inquire for my people whom I left in Charleston, S. C. Left a mother and one brother, which was the baby, by the name of Bennie. My mother is named Margaret, and belonged to a man by the name of W. M. McCree, which was her name when we were taken away from her. She had six children: three boys and three girls; C[h]a- rlotte [Charlotte], Abram, London, Phoebe [a]nd Annie, who were sold for debt to a Negro trader, who brought us to Dalton, Ga. His name was John Thornton. Then he sold me and brother London to Jim Dunigan to Newton Co., Miss. My three sis- ters [sisters] he kept in Georgia; Phoebe, Annie and Charlotte. Address J. A, Dunigan, Toomsuba, Lauder- dale [Lauderdale] Co., Miss.
