MR. EDITOR: I wish to have the pastor at Pilot Point and others to inquire for my three brothers, Bob, Ben and Joe. We belonged to Mr. Sandy in war time, and I belonged to Miss Camilla Gage. The oldest brother belonged to Ellen Dorem, the next to Jane Ives. I am now married to Burrell Taylor, and live in Pleasanton, Texas.
