FINDS HER LOST SISTER
----------
Two Women Separated for Twenty Years
Will Soon Be Reunited
------------
Within a few days two sisters will be happily reunited after a separation of many years. One of the women was formerly a resident of Fairland, but now resides at Sharpsville. The two sisters were Nora and Lulu White, who were admitted to the orphan's home at Greensburg on March 27, 1883, when they were respectively five and seven years of age. On August 25, 1886, Lulu, the younger sister, now Mrs. Herron, was taken into the home of Mrs. Ayres, near St. Paul, and on October 28, 1887, Nora was taken into the home of Mr. and Mrs. James Grose. After leaving the orphan's home, Mrs. Herron has never seen her sister, and until now has not been able to learn her whereabouts. A newspaper reader who was well acquainted with the older of the two girls, now mature women, saw a notice of the search of Mrs. Herron for her sister and identified her as Mrs. Will Lawson, now living at North Vernon. An investigation of the facts affirms the identification and the two long-separated sisters will, no doubt soon meet in a happy reunion.Monday, February 18, 1907
