Mother and Son Meet After Being Separated For Nineteen Years

Sardis, La., March 1  Mrs. Sarah Flint has as her guest this week her son, Mr.
Tom Trokee of Boyce, Louisiana.

Until December, 1937, both Mrs. Flint and her son had supposed each other
dead.  They had not seen or heard from each other in about 18 or 19 years when
Mr. Trokee visited his mother last at Wyatt, La.

Mr. Trokee is the oldest child of his mother's first marriage and states he is
seventy-one years of age.

Mr. Trokee was delighted to learn, while in a New Orleans sanitarium in
December, that his mother was still living and almost a close neighbor to him. 
They are enjoying their visit and hope to see each other quite often in the
future.

While there, Mr. Trokee is also visiting his sister, Mrs. Bob Carver, who he
hasn't seen for about 30 years.
