Loses Family Thirty Years.
Cyrus Hecox, of North Judson, was Sunday reunited with his mother, two brothers and three sisters, of whom he had not heard for thirty-five years. Hecox left his home in New York in 1865, and having not heard from any of the family he mourned them as dead until a few days ago, when he received a letter from his brother. This was his first intelligence from any of his kin during the thirty five years of ceperation.
