Sullivan of Richmond, was here two or theree days this week looking up titles and records to land on Brush creek recently purchased and being purchased by the Chenault syndicate. These people we understand will begin the construcktion of thier railroad in the fall LOCAL ITEMS DEAD..Miss Eliza Adams daughter of Ben Adams died Tuesday morning FINED..Henry Loman was fined $100 and cost last Sturday for being drunk at Wildie RELEASED..James Townsend was released Monday having replevied the $150 fine against him for selling liquor HELD OVER..Wm Gant was held to answer before the circuit court under a bond of $250 for shooting at John Pitman in the Pine Hill fight LEG BROKE..T.J.

We have been informed that our statement in last weeks issue, saying that Oscar McPherson wanted to marry Carrie Arnold the gir, whom he shot, is all amistake, so we make this correction ADMINISTRATOR..John P. Houston came in Monday and qualified as administrator of the estate of his son James M. Houston who was killed in the railroad wreck at Calvery last week. He went to Stanford Monday night to transact some business connected with the estate. LEG CUT OFF..Charley Bronston, colored, an employee of the Rockcastle Quarry Company had his leg cut off Monday morning while trying to jump a train. Drs M. Pennington and John M.

The firm is composed of the wealthiest men in Boyle county. Their salesman is George Bohon and a better one than he is not to be found anywhere MADE A DELEGATE..We were specially glad to learn that the Hon W.R. Cress was chosen as one of the delegate from the Eleventh district to the Kansas City Convention. It will be a great pleasure to many of his Rockcastle friends..this being his native county to know that he was given this high honor. MR Cress was for several years a school teacher of this county and later editor of the signal. About eight years ago he left this county and went to Monticello, where he began the practice of the legal profession and at the last election in his county he was elected county attorney by a handsome majority The wreck at Calvary last week in which three Rockcastle men lost their lives and four others considerably mashed up was as one of the railroad officials expressed it, one of the most complete wrecks which ever occured on the L&N system. The wreck caused a great loss to Rockcastle in death of W.C. Cable, George Mullins and James Houston we lost three of our best men and using the expression of one of the crew with whom they worked "Three of the most moral men on the entire line". Neither of the three men ever used whisky in any form, never swore an oath (we speak of late years during the time which we have known them) and never used tobacco, taken all together is something which can be said of only few men. We have not a work to say against any one of the crew, for as a trainman said just after the accident happened before getting the facts concerning it. "Let it be which one it may we will suffer the loss for they were all model men and useful to have in a commnunity". In the case of each it is a very sad affair, W.C. Cable leaves a wife and six children to mourn the loss of a devoted husband and affectionate father, George Mullins leaves a heart broken mother and James Houston leaves an aged father and mother whose silver locks and tottering steps show that their stay in this life is short. May God have mercy upon them and be a stay to them in their hours of sorrow and grief is the earnest prayer of the Signal. ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 29 Jan 1999 23:23:10 GMT From: "Jean Dalrymple" Subject: KFY: OBIT: Burns, 1981 - Mason Co EDITED: with the compliments of The Ledger Independent, Maysville, Mason County Kentucky. 20 March 1981 Henry Burns age 94 born: 8 June 1886 Robertson Co., KY father: Larry Burns mother: Margaret Ann Burns, nee Whaley wife: Nellie brown Burns, nee Johnson sons: James, Thomas, Paul, Lee, Larry, Emmitt Burns dau's: Ruby McDowell, Alberta Tranby, Marjorie & Pauline Burns 24 grandchildren 34 great grandchildren 2 great great grandchildren burial: Piqua Christian Church Cemetery motherd@theriver.com ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 30 Jan 1999 23:51:00 +0100 From: "MDT" Subject: KFY: OBITS: Sturgis News, Jan. 13, 1999 - Union Co Copied with the Permission of the Sturgis News, Sturgis, Union County, Ky, Wednesday, January 13, 1999, Number 2, Obits on page 2.
