of Your Valued Pat
brothers Find Eachotherv
Through Clerk Shealy.
Through the efforts of Frank W.
ihealy, the popular clerk of the court,
Ir. Albert R. Kistler has located bis
rother, John L. Kistler, and other
elatives in North Carolina whom he
ad not heard from in more than 35
ear?, and whom he believed to be
ead.
Several days a^o Mr. Albert Kistler
rought a letter to Mr. Shealy, the
ages of which were yellow with the
ge of years?a letter he had received
rom his sister more than 35 years
go, bearing the postmark ''Comity
line, N. C." Mr. Shealy took this
itter and immediately got busy. He
rote a number of letters to postmas;rs
and public officials, explaining in
etail the circumstances surrounding
>ft spnaration of the brothers, and
iving the name9 of some of the Kist>rs
who, it was thought, resided in
forth Carolina.
Time bad brought on many changes,
f course, and the little postoffiee
rhere the sister used to get her mail
ad been dropped from the list of
ostoffices in North Carolina. Howver,
the name of Kistler was a familir
name in the community, and it
ras not long before John L. Kistler
7as found, and soon a letter was adressed
to Mr. Albert R. Kistler, in
are of Clerk of Court Shealy, and the
;tter bore the signature of John L.
[is tier.
The letter contained the in formaion
that the father and mother of the
wo brothers had long since passed
way; and gave, also, the full history
f the family in North Carolina from
he time the Kistlers left Lexington
ounty down to the present.
Mr. Albert Kistler has written his
rother that he intends paying him a
isit sometime in the not distant fuare.
That Mr. Shealy has won the everisting
gratitude of the Kistler famly
by h?8 dilligence in the matte.,
;oes without saying.
