William Green 
Bath County News-Outlook Thursday, July 27, 1939 
Bourbon Child Drowns While Playing On Well 
   An adventuresome three year old child Friday afternoon climbed three 
feet onto the top of a well on the farm of Boone Hornback near Bethel, 
Bath county; lifted the hinged top of the well and peered inside.  Then 
he lost his balance and fell into 12 feet of water. 
   The child, William Green, son of Mr. and Mrs. Paul Green, of near North 
Middletown, was dead when he was removed from the water a short time later 
by men who had been working on the road nearby. 
   The Greens, who live with Mr. Green's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Morton 
Green, in Bourbon county, were visiting the Hornbacks Friday when the 
tragedy occurred. 
   When the body was recovered it was found the child had suffered a 
deep cut on the head in his fall. 
   The body was removed to a Mt. Sterling funeral home.  Services were 
held at the Green residence at 2:30 o'clock Sunday afternoon with the 
Rev. Jake Cunningham, pastor of the Somerset (Montgomery county) Christian 
church, officiating.
