BROTHERAND SISTER MET AFTER FORTY-SIX YEARS OF SEPARATION. MOURNED AS LONG DEAD ■ I Wood Bennett, of Kaneae City, Mo., and His Sister, Johana Henry, of Fort Wayne, Ind., Meet at the Homo , of the Letter’s Daughter—Other Indtana News. Indianapolis, Sept. 30. —After hav- . Ing been separated forty-six years, Wood Bennett, of Kansas City, Mo., and his sister, Johana Henry, of Fort Wayne, Ind., met Qt the home of Mrs. Henry’r daughter, JUrs. W. N. Somers, 2609 Central avenue. “I guess you don’t know me,” said an elderly gentleman to Mrs. Somers when she answered a summons to her door yesterday morning. “Well, Im your uncle, Weod Bennett, and Ive come to see your mother. I’ve been to Fort Wayne to" see her and they told me she was here.” A hasty call brought Mrs. Henry and there was great rejoicing over the return of the brother who was believed dead for many years. Mrs. Henry and Mr. Bennett lived with their father. David Bennett, iu Bluffton, Ind., tat the time of the civil war, the Elder Bennett having been one of the pioneers of the state and the founder of the town of Bluffton. : When the call to arms came to the little village, one of the first to volunteer was Wood Bennett, and the only time he returned to visit his family was when he came as a government recruiting officers to enlist his former friends. He returned to active service and when the news came after the battle of the Stone River the name of Wood Bennett headed the list of prisoners taken to Libby prison. Days passed, months and then years. Other Indiana prisoners escaped or were released from the prison, but none ever brought back any message from Wood Ben nett. For many years a lingering hope of his return remained with his sister and brothers, but as the time went on he at last was mourned as dead until seven years ago, when he appeared suddenly before his bpbther, M. W. Bennett, in Cherryvale, Kas., having traced him through inquiries in Bluff tdn. A correspondence was opened i with various members of the family : immediately, but not until yesterday , did the brother and sister meet. Mr. Bennett has been married and . living in Kansas City since early in ' the seventies, being the father ol three sons and three daughters. When asked if he had any reason for not communicating with his family, Mr Bennett said: “Oh, no; .1 had no real reason. Just a man’s indifference, I guess. Or, maybe, it runs in the Bennett family* “Several of the boys for generations back have done the same thing and Mrs. Henry here has a son that’s been | gone a long time. She tells me she j worries about him and grieves be- i cause he doesn’t write to her. But 1 say he’s all right; he’ll come back some day. But, after all, it’s bad business, and when a man gets to be 75 yehrs old, like I am, he has a hankering to see the old folks at home.” , Mr. Bennett and Mrs. Henry ar both very active and they spent the afternoon yesterday walking on the Fall Creek boulevard and talking ot the happy days when they were children at the old homestead in Bluff ton.
