Helm tD Find Him.

To THE EDITOR: On the 29th day of March,
1866 Robert N. Graham, Serg't, CO. E, 9th u. s.
Veteran Volunteers, was mustered out of serv-
ice at Washington, d. C., and since then has
not been heard from. He had been Lieu
tenant of the 7th Iowa. and On his discharge
entered the 9th u. S. Inf He sent homo his
effects and was expected soon to follow them,
but his fate since has been a mystery. His
worse than widowed wife has ever since longed
for some word from him or Of him in vain. To
even know of his death would DO great relief,
though loving family still hope for his return.
Graham was carpenter by trade and a Pres
bytorian in faith. Readers of THE NATIONAL
TRIBUNE are asked to interest themselves in
this matter, and communicate to me any infor-
nation which might lead to clue to his fate
if dead, or his location if living. Comrades
who have lived about Washington since that
time, are requested to give this matter consid-
GRAFTON. The press of the country are asked to
copy this notice.--CHAs. II. JONES, Waynss-
burg Ohio
