Barbourville, Ky., March 6, - E. Messer with forty armed men of the Slusher party, arrived from Flat Creek yesterday, and caused a great alarm. Circuit Court being in session, Judge Boyd place a strong guard around the court house. But notwithstanding this the factions opened fire in the court house yard, using Colt's 45-caliber revolvers. William Day, one of the Smith faction, received a dangerous wound in the leg, and Messer;s clothing was pierced. The presence of the guards and the falling snow prevented further damage. Before embarking for their return the Messer party threw cartridges into the stove at the depot and when asked by the agent to desist, drew knives and carved the stove pipe. ______________________________X-Message: #2 Date: Sat, 7 Apr 2001 18:40:29 -0400 From: "Mary Ann Merritt" Subject: CENSUS: McCowan in KY 1850 Census Pike Co #387 McCowan Wm 34 M Farmer VA Jemiana 21 F KY Martha A 8 F KY Louisa J 6 F KY Jas K P 5 M KY John W 1 M KY Melvina 4 F KY #388 McCowan John 28 M Farmer VA Mary 25 F KY James M 5 M KY Thursday A 4 F KY Hugh 1 M KY Osborne Hannah 84 F VA #403 McCowan Hugh 65 M Farmer VA Milla 55 F VA Mary 26 F VA Sarah 20 F KY Elizabeth 17 F KY Thos 14 M KY #847 McCowan Linsey 24 M Farmer KY Mary A 26 F KY Christina 1/12 F KY #866 Bowling John 56 M Mechanic VA Lucy 57 F VA Charles R 24 M Farmer KY John R 22 M Farmer KY Francey 19 F KY Wm A 17 M Farmer KY Joseph R 14 M KY Benjamine F 11 M KY Lucy A E 8 F KY McCowan Mitchell 30 M Labourer KY Roten Lavicey 16 F KY DAVIEES CO.1850 Census #145 Hardy J.
