The Anthony Weekly Bulletin Harper County Friday October 8, 1897 After Many Years. Mrs. J.R. HARRIS, Jr., of Anthony township was most agreeably surprised last week. The lady had been visiting relatives in the Strip and upon her return was informed by her husband that he had good news for her, the good news being a letter from David ALLISON at Warsaw, Illinois, inquiring of Mr. HARRIS if his wife's maiden name was Allison and if so, claiming here as his sister. Mrs. HARRIS and her brother lost their parents by cholera, in Ohio, when the boy was only nine months old. They were taken by different families, and Mrs. HARRIS had not know of the baby brother's whereabouts for many years. The family of which Mrs. HARRIS wa a member came to Illinois, and there she married Mr. Harris, and after their marriage they made diligent search for the brother. An advertisement was answered from Columbus, Ohio, by a school teacher who had a pupil by the name of David Allison but the second letter from him reported the young man gone from the city. Mr. Harris thinks that in a! ll probability, he was the person they were after, but they lost all trace of him at that time and never heard of him again until he wrote from Warsaw in September. There seem to be no question as to his identity as the brother of Mrs. Harris, and we venture that the meeting will be a happy, if deferred one.
