There they met an old schoolmate of hers, now Squire Jonathan Wiilard, one of ttbe respected and honored citizens of that vicinity, who very kindly and generously insisted ou entertaining them and taking them to all the old familiar places such as the school house and the country church, which he and Mrs. Walker, had attended as urchins, and is*any other familiar places dear to her memory.

There they also visited the old church and his grandfather Walker's old home place. They were also in the room where his fa.her and mother was married.

It was the first visit of Mr. Walker and his sister Sarah to the home of their an cestors, but the ol 1 places were familiar to them as they had been firmly engrafted in their minds, when as children they had heard father and mother talk of their «ld Virginia home. The visit aod the experience was certainly a delightful one and will ever be held in fond memory by all of the party
