Author: Centre College Alumni
George Helm. Son of Hon. John L. and Lucinda B. (Hardin) Helm. Born October
31, 1833, at Bardstown, KY. Was prepared for college by Robert Hewitt in
Elizabethtown--his legal residence while a student. In 1847 he entered
Centre College. On leaving he chose the law as a profession, and pursued it
at Louisville and at the Law School in Cambridge, MA. He practiced for a
time in Elizabethtown, and then moved to Memphis, TN. Died January 27,
1858, at Memphis, of typhoid fever. He never married. "He was a constant
and deep student, both of books and human nature, and had acquired a vast
fund of information, historical, scientific and political. As a speaker he
was easy and attractive, close and logical in argument, happy in his
illustrations and forcible in his conclusions."
