ciated it would enlist the sympathy,

| thelnterests OF Americans, and shield

tain National Orphans Home.

After MANY Years.

Mr.. L. H. Langford received let
ter last week from his brother, Mr..
Tom Langford, from whom he had
not heard in nearly 80 years. He
thought him dead for a long time
and it was like getting a message
from the dead when he heard from
him. Mr.. Tom Langford lived in
Henderson one time and was a clerk.
Some of our older citizens remember
him. He was in the army and was
desperately wounded, being shot
through the side at Gettysburg
Capt. b. NJ. Collins knew him well
and testifes to his bravery and faith
fitness as a soldier. He was not a
member OF Capt. Collins company
but they belonged to the same regi-
ment. Mr.. Langford is living at
Morris, Alabama, has been married
twenty-three years and has three
children living.
