Albert Lester moved from the Albemarle section and settled near what is now the town of Louislmrg. It is said his residence was erected on the very spot now occupied by the residence of Mr. Ellis Tucker, lie was a man of immense wealth, a large slave owner for those days, and his landed estate was almost unbounded. He was highly educated, refined and dressed like a Prince, with larcre golden knee buckles, cut-away coat, and wova a long, curly, powdered wig. lie had ecently married a wealthy and high ly cultivated Virginia lady, and to all appear inces they were exceedingly happy. 1 1 is residence, although built of hewn lugs, was handsome, large nd roomy.

Good fare: lite WadsVtteSiiTO MTTWatr wer.' never so happy as when riding through the sparsely settled country ntributing to the wants of all who needed their attention. At the time of the incident which am about to relate, they were bless ed with three bright little curly haired girls, their ages being six, four and two years. They were sweet, beautiful little rirls, and were idol ized by their parents, the servants, and all of the people in the surround ing country. For Col. Lester enter tained in such a welcome and hospi table manner that the poorest, as well as the richest, felt equally wel come m ins nrettv liome. But, unfortunately this happy home was to be invaded, as all oth ers are, soont-r or later, by deep trouble. Col. Lester had a half broth- i i er, many years ins senior, wno nau given him much trouble; and it i3 said that he left the Albemarle sec tion to get rid of him. To his utter surprise and chagrin, this half broth er one day put in his appearance, and with him a wretch of a woman whom he claimed was his wife. This red headed, hump shouldered outcast, who had spent all of the splendid fortune he inherited from his father,.. had given Col. Lester much trouble. But as he had made his appearance again he thought he would make the best of it. bo he placed him on a little farm he owned on the Halifax road, and started him with a full equipment, even to several negroes to work his farm. But the hatred that old Jack Lester entertained for his brother still existed. He was a rogue as well as a forger, and almost every day Col. Lester had to pay for some of his rascality. Forbearance soon ceased to be a virtue, and Col. Lester told his brother that one or the other of them must leave. This incensed old Jack to such a pitch that he swore he would take revenge on his brother, if it took a life time But, at any rate, he agreed to leave the country if his brother would fur nish him the means to do so. To which the Col. readily agreed. If the reader will excuse me, I will state just here that among Col. Les ter's warm friends, was Mr Ben Wheelock, a'gentleman of the first water, who lived some twenty miles off on the waters of Shocco creek He was a man of large wealth and influence, tall, broad-shouldered, with long white beard, a pleasant, genial face, he commanded respect where- ever he went. He was a great hun ter, and it is said, he knew every road and hog-path within fifty miles of his home. He was knowrn as the "Sher lock Holmes" of that time. There was no mystery he did not solve, and no difficulty he could not settle. He was a frequent visitor at Col. Lester' home, and he was devotedly attached to the dear little girls, who always ran to me it him when he came, and they loved him next to their parents and the old black mammy, their nurse, who was also devoted to them About noon on one warm night in August, a messenger from Col. Les ter arrived at the Wheelock mansion his horse all covered with foam, with a note from Col. Lester which read as follows: "Bex, Come at once. Under no circumstances delay a minute. All depends upon your haste." Ben Wheelock being out on the farm, it was some hours -before he was found. On getting the note he hastened on at once, not even wait ing for dinner. He knew he was needed, and his fleet horse and gig never made such speed before. It was after dark when he reached the Lester home. His arrival had for gome hours been anticipated, and Col. and Mrs. Lester met him at the gate, but they were so overcome with grief Mrs. Lester fainting and falling in the arms of Diley, the old black mam Po my, who had also nursed her in her infancy, and whose devotion to the children and family knew no bounds, that it was some minutes before Col. Lester even could speak. "My children, my children, my dear, darling little girls are gone kidnapped !" "Calm yourself, my dear Lester, tell me all about it, I am shocked." The weeping of Mrs. Lester (who had recovered from her swoon) and Oi'.ey was beyond description, and nothing that Mr. Lester could say or do would in the least pacify them. "My dear Wheels ck," said Col. L-ster, "I hardly know how to begin. Last night we retired as usual the two larger girls in their little bed near ours, and little Annie in her crib, which was between our bed and the wall. All that I can say further, is that when we waked this morning all the children were gone, and not a trace of them can bo found any where. I blew the horn of distress four long, loud blasts, which is the custom in the settlement, and all of my negroes, tenants and neighbors for miles around assembled, and are now running and riding over the country in the search. I have been listening all day for the horn of joy two long blasts from some one of those in the search, but alas, they seem to have taken wings and flown away. "Were your doors locked?" asked Wheelock. "Yes, we always lock the doors se curely," said the Colonel, "but as it was quite warm, we left the large window in our room up. This morn ing we found all the doors locked as usual, and there were no tracks or traces of any kind to show that any one had been near. I and probably a hundred others have searched dili gently, but no trace whatever can be found. It seems impossible that these dear little ones could hare been tak en from the room without awaken ing us especially the little Annie, who had to be taken over both of us. It is a mystery, inscrutable, and I fear they are gone forever." And the Colonel again broke completely down, and joined his wife and Diley in their weeping. Ben Wheelock was at his wits end, and seemed himself mystified. Of, all the problems he ever had to solve, this was the most mysterious. Tak ing the Colonel in another room he questioned him in regard to enemies, but Col. Lester told him he had not an enemy in the world, except his brother Jack, and he was confident he had nothing to do with it. He had just furnished him the means to go to the Western country, and he was then all packed up ready to start on his journey. And, besides, if his brother bad wished to do such a thing, it would have been impossible for him, or any one else, seemingly, to have taken these children from the room without waking some one of them or their parents. It was now getting late, and Whee- ock suggested that they retire for the night, and that he would be up early and see if he could find any clues by which this mystery of mys teries could be solved. Of course there was no Bleep or rest for any of them, and Ben Whee lock was up as soon as it was light enough to see, and was joined by the Colonel. Wheelock examined the window, and after the most care ful scrutiny he observed that a fresh broken splinter, not larger than a pin, showed plainly that some one had en tered the room through the window. He then examined the grounds around, but there were absolutely no tracks or traces whatever. His usu ally genial face began to wear a dis appointed look, when he discerned on the railing of the front palings a short stem pipe. He eagerly seized it, re marking to Lester, "Ah, this is a clue. You see that the stem is nearly black with age, and there are no tooth prints on it. It was used by a per son who is toothless." Knocking oat the tobacco that was left unburned in it, he remarked, "You see this tobac co is half Sumac leaves, another clue." He had proceeded but a little farther, when he was seen to pick up a buneh of weeds that lay near where he found the pipe. He put them to his nose, but quickly taking them away, put them in his pocket, and his eyes fairly twinkled with delight. Seeing a cluster of trees near the swamp, about two hundred yards away, he told the Colonel that they would look there for some trace. Af ter the closest search, Wheelock found where a wagon with two horses had stood for some tame, and that one of the horses had lost his shoe on the right fore foot. His eyes again twinkled, and they hurried back to the gig, which he had already or- dered hitched up, pulling off two mellow apples, as he passed through the orchard, hu dropped them in bis pocket. The distressed and nearly crazy mother, when she noticed his brighter face, and after he had told her he had some clues, her weeping seemed to be divided between that of joy and sorrow. But both parent hung about his neck, imploring him not to return without the darling lit tle girls. He remarked as he drove off, "You can trust old Ben Whee lock, I will be back by noon, calm yourselves, for although is is rrnste GOOD ADVICE. Resolution.

And as he drove rapidly away, he left Col. Let ter, his wife, and old Diley, all wrap ped in each others arms Di'ev. seemingly, more distressed than the others. God bless the old time dar key. They were always ready to re joice with us in our prosperity, aud weep with us in our sorrow. Tin younger people of the present da have no idea of the attachment thu existed between these old slaves and their masters and mistresses in the olden times. Ben Wheelock drove as rapidly as possible to old Jack Les ter's place, who was packed up re:i l for his departure to the Wester:-, country. The old man met him in the yard, when Wheelock said to him that he had heard that he wished to swap for a larger horse to match one of his, and that he thought the one he was driving would suit him. The old man took him to the stable, where Wheelock in examining them, found I the chi! Iren t that the shoe on the right foot of one ! embracing C of them was missing. Lis eyes gave j child, a twinkle. After parleying awhile, Old Jack I. tkey could not trade, and the old man j far on his w.r. invited heelock in to rest awhile. 1 After taking his seat, Wheelock tak ing his pipe from his pocket remark ed, "I have forgotten my tobacco pouch." UI have plenty," said the oM man, two kinds, ''this here is half and half Shumac leaves the Indians used to call it "kinikinic." Wheelock said be would take the plain tobacco, and again there was a twinkle iu his eyes. After lighting his pipe, he arose to go, and taking the apples from his pocket, offered them to the old man. who said he was very fond of them, but had lost his teeth and could not eat them, ths he would take them to hia wife. There was another t pinkie ia Wheelock's eyes, and he got in his gig and drove rapidly away. I will state here that some months before Ben Wheelock in one of his hunting expeditions, stopped at a miserable old hut on the Halifax road to get a drink of water. It wan oc cupied by a miserable old half In dian hag, and sitting in the door, he observed growing near the cabin a strange kind of weed. Pulling otT a piece of it, he asked the old hag what it was, She told him not to put it to ; his nose as it was "sleep weed," and that a few whiffs of it in the nose ' would put him to sleep, and no pow- : er on earth could awaken him for j hours. The knowledge of this was handed down to her from the Indians, she was half Indian herself. This is why Wheelock's eyes twinkled so brightly when he picked up the i bunch of weeds in Lester's yard. ! As he hurried to this old cabin, he felt satisfied that he had solved the j mistery, and that he would tind the children with her. Old Jack Lester had taken this old hag with j him to the Iestar residence, and while he waited at the window out- f i pure - old - velvety the Wst for the pritk. sold everywhere.
