HAPrY MRS. WALLACE.
Find, Her Son After Over Thirty Year.
Absence.

Find. Her Son After Over Thirty Years
Absence.
Mrs. Wallace, an aged colored lady
living pelr Fourt enth and Walker, is
perhaps the happiest lady in the city.
Some time in the COS the Turner fam
lily, Mrs Wallace having twice married,
lived at Colum bus, KY, and were in
the employ of a telegrapher named
Stevens. Mr. and Mrs. Turner were
slaves and through its inhuman prin-
ciples were subjected to cruel separa-
ton. About the time the wa broke
out and the whole country was in a
high state of excitement, the whole
family was separated, Mrs. Turner re-
NOV ,ng to Humboldt, Tenn, and the
father and a ION s or 8 years old named
Thomas remaining at lumbus, KY. 1t
is indeed sad to think of such sever
ing of family ties and each being forced
upon the mercies of an urappreciating
public However sad this parting may
have been it was nevertheless carried
out. The long years of war for the
Union continually widened the breach
of family love and perhaps suffered the
father to fall N ,rtyr in defense of
that which was right and just. Years
rolled on ard on and the poor mother
never even herd of her son After
the close of the war she came north to
Iowa with the Thirty-ninth Iowa In
fantry and took up temporary resi-
dence at Winterset and subsequently,
moved to this city where she has since
resided.
Prompted by motherly love and
ankle v to see her son who long since
had grown to manhood she cons antly
inquired and prayed to ascertain his
identity and whereabouts. At last as
a successful experiment she advertised
in a leading colored newspaper as to
the whereabouts Of her son Thomas
Turner. whom she had not seen for
thirty odd years Imagine her JOY
when she at last learned that he was
living in Mis- issippi parish and was a
well-to-do farmer having family, and
had been married for more than twenty
wears A communication was imme-
diateIy starr ed and the certainty that
they were mother and son was soon
established,
Mrs Wallace has been a widow
something like two years, her husband
having died Christmas morning, 1892.
The son Thomas gnifies h s inten-
ton of visiting his mother as soon as
his business interesl viii permit and
the mother is earnestly and loving y
awaiting his early arrival. God is
always kind and is the guiding star of
alnrnankind

! ST. Paul's A. M. Z. Church gave a
delightful reception to its new minister,
Rev. L. A. Clark, Monday evening. A
very choice musical program consisting
of solos, duets, choir songs and anthems
was rendered in a most pleasing man
ner. Addresses were made by mem
bers of the trustee, stewardess, Lend
a-Hand, choir, and other officers of the
church, The pastor made few well
chosen remarks, foremost of which
was the fact that he had come to Des
Moines and assumed the pastora'e of
the church for the sole purpose OF
Christian work; that members
and pastor should be united and all
work for the upbuilding of the church
and the salvation of the human family.
There can be no love without a Christ
like heart Affinity Of purpose and
mutual forbearance are all essential in
the upbuilding and perpetuation of
Gods word.
The pas or will be a valuable annex
to the mil is erial association of this
city The field for la Dor is g cd one,
and possessing the highly christian char
ter that he does adds another brilliant
star in the galaxy Of Des Moines'
