Miss Ennis Howell (still alive but very old), daughter of Benson Howell, my grandfather's brother, came into possession of three leaves from the family Bible (Jan. 2, 1943) of my great, great grandfather, Joseph R. Howell. The leaves were found among the muniments of title of V. C. Badham, who bought my grandfather's home place (and resides there), now Badham, on the Southern Railway from Charleston to Columbia, about four miles from St. George.
