MR EDITOR:--I wish to see if I can find my dear father. I came to Texas about 28 years ago, and left my father in Kentucky. His name was Jack Adams. We were brought out of Texas by Billy Wooten. My name was then Sarah Wooten, but is now Sarah Yancey. Sisters were Marcy, who is dead, and Celia. Brother Charles lives here. SARAH YANCY. Columbus, Texas.
