The Winchester Sun Sat., 1-2-1954 Abbott, Mollie Arrested Some weeks ago we published an account of the murderous assault made on Mollie Abbott, an old woman who lived alone in the eastern part of the county. Jack, George and Charles Curtis, Solomon and Hezikeah Stanhope were indicted by the Grand Jury and Deputy Sheriff John Bedford and Sheriff Ware, of Powell county, this week made the arrests. Jack and Charlie Curtis were found near the scene of the assult and were arrested. Mr. Bedford then handcuffed them and fastened them to a tree and pushed on into Powell county where the others were captured. The Stanhope boys gave bond but the Curtis brothers were brought here and put in jail The Winchester Democrat Fri., March 2, 1900

To The Asylum Mollie Abbott, an inmate of the poor house, was tried before Judge Evans and a jury Wednesday on a charge of lunacy. She was adjudged a lunatic and was taken to the asylum at Lexington. The Winchester Democrat Fri., June 8, 1900

Wades Mill We have been pained to see recently the name of Miss Mollie Abbott in The Democrat in its several connections. The history of this poor, unfortunate woman reads like a romance with a sad and pathetic ending. Forty years ago she was the beautiful and popular daughter of the wealthy Boswell Abbott. She dressed in silks and satins and happy was the young lady who was so fortunate as to be her friend and companion. But reverses came, the father died, the fortune left was soon dissipated by bad management and unprincipled parties. The widow and mother, bent with care, sorrow and privations, in a few years followed her husband, and Miss Mollie was left comparatively alone in the world. Poverty-wicked and shameful treatment, poor house, insane asylum, marks the last sad steps of a life once so beautiful, propitious and happy. And thus it is that “Fortune’s furious, fickle wheel” makes rapid and capricious revolutions. The Winchester Democrat Tue., June 12, 1900 Abbott, Mollie The Winchester Sun Thur., 10-30-1913 Abbott, Mrs. Alexander Alex Abbott, aged twenty-six was arrested at Mt. Sterling Saturday, charged with murdering his wife in Rowan county last July. Immediately after his wife’s death he is said to have skipped with his sister-in-law, aged fourteen years. He was taken to Rowan county for trial. The Winchester Democrat Tuesday, January 19, 1897

Alexander Abbott was convicted of poisoning his wife at Morehead and was given a life sentence in the penitentiary. The Winchester Democrat Tuesday, June 15, 1897

At Morehead Circuit Court Alex. Abbott was given a life sentence for poisoning his wife. A year ago he got a similar sentence but the case was reversed by the Court of Appeals. The Winchester Democrat Friday, April 1, 1898

3 At Morehead, Abbott, the wife murderer, who has twice been sentenced to death and twice saved by the Court of Appeals, has been granted a change of venue to Menifee county. He is accused of having poisoned his wife. The Winchester Democrat Tuesday, November 8, 1898 Abbott, Mrs. Kathy L.

Abbott, a well known lawyer, died Thursday morning of embolism of the heart, caused by a bicycle accident. He had been since October 23 confined to his bed with injuries received by a reckless cycler. The Winchester Democrat Tuesday, November 2, 1897. Abbott, William William Abbott, who lived in the Eastern part of this county and who was sent to the Lunatic Asylum at Lexington last Thursday, died there the next day of brain disease, aged 57 years. His remains were brought home and buried at Log Lick. He was a member of Capt. Geo. M. Jackson’s Company, 4th Kentucky Federal Infantry.

Abell, Jr., son of the late Alfred Abell, living with his mother, near town, was found in a stable nearby in a dying condition, caused by heart failure. He was removed to his mother’s house, and died a few minutes later. He was unmarried. The Winchester Democrat Tue., Oct. 10, 1899 Abell, Mrs. Edward Victim Of Melancholia Mrs. Abell Shot Herself Through The Heart At Her Home Bardstown, Ky., Nov. 14 Mrs. Abell, wife of Edward Abell, shot herself through the heart at her home at Cox creek at 8 o’clock Thursday morning, dying 15 minutes later. Mrs. Abell was injured in a runaway accident about five years ago, since which time she has suffered from melancholia. She was a daughter of Jordan Hall, superintendent of the Bardstown electric light plant, and was about 26 years old. The Winchester Sentinel Wed., Nov. 19, 1902 Abernathy, John R. (Jack) The Winchester Sun Mon., 1-13-1941 Abersfeller, John Was It Murder of Suicide Newport, Ky., March 1.—The front room of the cottage, 717 Ann street, this city, was the scene of a probable murder at some hour Sunday afternoon. The victim was John Abersfeller, 50 years of age, who was chiefly noted through a report that he carried large sums of money on his person. Not since the Pearl Bryan murder have the authorities been so mystified as to whether a terrible crime has been committed or whether the victim met death at his own hands. The Winchester Democrat Tuesday, March 8, 1898 Abmott, G. W. The Winchester Sun, Mon., 4-4-1921 Abnee, Benjamin Benjamin Abnee, of Madison county, shot himself in the leg with a pistol some time ago. The wound was slight but he did not give it proper attention and it inflamed to the extent that amputation became necessary and he died last week from the effects. The Winchester Democrat Wednesday, April 26, 1893 Abnee, James Pat Hunt waived examination for the murder of Jas. Abnee and was sent to jail without bail. The Winchester Democrat Wed., 3-6-1889

The verdict of the coroner’s jury over the body of Jas. Abnee was to the effect that he was murdered in cold blood by Pat Hunt, the husband of Mrs. Mary Hunt, now in the penitentiary for the killing of Rick Thomas. Abnee was one of the principal witnesses against her and hence the killing. The Winchester Democrat Wed., 3-6-1889

Pat Hunt was tried in the Bourbon Circuit court this week for the murder of Jas. Abnee in February. After being out an hour and twenty minutes the jury brought in a verdict of guilty and fixed the punishment as death. Abnee was shot at night by a concealed person, who was recognized as Hunt. The motive for the killing was that Abnee testified against Mrs. Hunt when she was sent to the penitentiary for the murder of Buck Thomas The Democrat Wednesday May 1, 1889 4

The motion made by the attorneys of Pat Hunt, of Paris who was last week sentenced to be hung for the murder of Jas. Abnee, was denied by Judge Morton and Saturday, June 29th was fixed as the day for execution. It will take place in the jail yard and not more than fifty persons will be admitted. The Democrat Wednesday May 8, 1889

A Strange coincidence is that the Negro who was lynched in Paris on Thursday night last, was hung for raping a lady from Nicholas county, Pat Hunt is in jail at Paris awaiting execution for killing James Abnee of Nicholas county, and Tom O’Brien is in jail at Lexington awaiting execution for the killing of Bettie Shea, of Nicholas county. The Winchester Democrat Wed., 7-31-1889

Bourbon-A petition is being circulated praying Gov. Buckner to commute the death sentence of Pat Hunt for the murder of Jas. Abnee, into imprisonment for life. The Winchester Democrat Wed., 10-16-1889

The Governor has fixed Wednesday December 18th for the execution of Pat Hunt who is in the Paris jail under sentence of death for the murder, last April, of Jas. Abnee. The cause of the killing was, that Abnee had been a principal witness against Hunt’s wife who is now serving a three-year term in the penitentiary for the murder of Rick Thomas. The Winchester Democrat Wednesday 11-13-1889

Pat Hunt was hung in Paris Wednesday for the murder of Jas. Abnee last February. He was brave and defiant to the last and never admitted his guilt, though few people had any doubts concerning it. His blasphemous spirit is shown by a remark he made the morning of the execution. “Well, I am going to ride on a forked railroad this morning and will go to Heaven or Hell, one or the other. If I go to Hell, they will have a good fire for me.” Father Jones formerly of this city was one of his spiritual attendants. The scaffold on which he was hung, was the same on which the Negro John Bush of Lexington, Wm. Neal of Ashland, and four others suffered the penalty of their crimes. In August 1886, Rick Thomas was shot in one of the most public places in Paris, but strange to say no one saw the shot fired. Mr. and Mrs. Pat Hunt were arrested for the crime, when Mrs. Hunt, who had been a woman of easy virtue, acknowledge the shooting, claiming that Thomas made an indecent proposal to her. Hunt was acquitted and Mrs. Hunt was sent to the penitentiary for three years. Jas. Abnee was the principal witness against her, for which Hunt threatened to kill him which he did last spring, and for which he was executed Wednesday. Since the hanging of Hunt, Mrs. Hunt claims that he killed Thomas also, but that she assumed the crime, believing that she would be acquitted and also fearing that if she told the truth about the matter that her husband would kill her.

Warrants were immediately issued for the arrest of all those accused and John Davidson, Tom Davidson, and Hacker Combs have been arrested and their trial is set for Friday.

Jackson – Commonwealth’s Attorney T.C.

Set for trial The cases of the four Breathitt county men who are indicted for the murder of John Abner and which were sent to Bourbon county on a change of venue were called on Monday and set for trial next Wednesday. Hon. Floyd Byrd, of this city, will assist in the prosecution. The Winchester Democrat Friday, December 2, 1910

Lexington – A startling turn was given to the approaching trial of the alleged murderers of John Abner, of Breathitt county, when it was learned that the subpoenas for witnesses which had been sent to Breathitt county to be served had disappeared from the sheriff’s office. The Winchester Democrat Tuesday, December 13, 1910

Callahan appointed A special Judge was appointed to try the four Breathitt men to be tried at Paris for the murder of John Abner at Jackson. The cases were called Wednesday and many of the witnesses were absent. The case was continued until yesterday, but as the special Judge was obliged to open his own court on that day it was necessary for the Governor to appoint another Judge. Subpoenas for witnesses in Breathitt county were stolen from the sheriff’s office and Ed Callahan was appointed special bailiff to summon these witnesses. The defendants protested vigorously and his appointment may cause trouble. The Winchester Democrat Tuesday, December 13, 1910

Acquitted John Davidson, Beckner Combs and Jason Deaton, the Breathitt county men on trial for the past week at Paris charged with the murder of John Abner were acquitted Saturday.

Buckner commissioner vs. Zeke Scott & co. …..James F. Winn and E. Jouett Jr. having filed reports as guardian ad litem for Lucy, 11 Etta and James Thomas and David Adams and Shelton Gay the infant defendants herein…. Order Book 19; P. 396; November Court 1886 Adams, Aaron Brought back Dillard Rainey brought from Virginia and lodged in jail Sheriff Hodgkin returned Thursday night with Dillard Rainey, who is now in jail at Lexington here. He went to Richmond, Va., where the requisition papers of Gov. Bradley were at once honored. He carried letters of introduction from B.F. Curtis to some of the most prominent men in Richmond and was also assisted by Dr. W.B. Logan, formerly of this city, who is now a prominent citizen of Richmond. He then proceeded to Roanoke where Rainey was in jail. The Chief of Police of that place rendered him every assistance and Mr. Hodgkin speaks in the highest terms of the Chief and of the efficiency of the police service there. A day or two after the murder of Adams, in fact as soon as he obtained some money, Rainey left here. All the rumors of his having been seen at various times and places were incorrect. He went by way of Jeffersonville, Montgomery county, and on through the mountains. His horse became very much jaded and he swapped it for another. When he arrived at Roanoke he concluded to rest a day or two; he had no definite purpose but proposed to find something to do. He went by the name of Bud Johnson. The police were looking for a man who was wanted in Ohio for murder and whose portrait resembled Rainey. When questioned he claimed to be from Irvine, Ky., but could not tell the name of the Chief of Police of the city or the Sheriff of the county, and acted in various ways, so as to convince the officer that he was wanted somewhere. The Chief of Police of Irvine was telegraphed a description of the man and Edgar Parks went after him. He obtained possession of the prisoner who made no objection to coming back, but when the officials refused to give him up after Parks had again placed him in jail, Rainey also refused to come without a requisition. He seemed perfectly willing to come with Mr. Hodgkin, especially after being assured that there was no danger of mob violence and was as cheerful on his way back as if he was going on a pleasant excursion instead of to prison to be tried for his life. He stated that he would have surrendered at first if he had not been afraid of being lynched. He does not seem to realize the position he is in but seems to feel that he will come out alright. The Winchester Democrat Tuesday June 16, 1896

After the reward H.N. Dyer, chief of Police of Roanoke, Va., is here to see about the reward offered by the State for the capture of Dillard Rainey. The reward is also claimed by T. Edgar Parks, Marshal of Irvine. Rainey was arrested by the Police authorities of Roanoke on suspicion of being wanted somewhere for some crime and was in jail there when Parks went after him. The matter will probably be settled by Judge Scott this morning. The Winchester Democrat Tuesday, October 6, 1896

Circuit court The Rainey murder case still occupies the attention of the court and will continue to do so for a day or two. The Winchester Democrat Tuesday, October 6, 1896

Circuit court The jury was dismissed yesterday until Monday. The damage case of Mrs. Aaron Adams against Matt Rainey for killing her husband was continued. The motion of Rainey’s attorneys for a new trial was overruled by Judge Scott and he will probably appeal. Sheriff Hodgkin was ordered to summon a hundred men in parts of the county remote from the scene of his crime, from which to get a jury to try Dillard Rainey this term. The Winchester Democrat Friday, October 9, 1896

A life sentence The jury was not long in making a verdict in the Matt. Rainey murder case after it was submitted to them, and in a couple of hours agreed on a life sentence. There was no difference of opinion as to his guilt and the only question was to the punishment. On the first ballot four voted for the death penalty and eight for life imprisonment. A couple held out for some time for hanging him but finally agreed to a verdict of life imprisonment. None of the jury was very strenuously opposed to hanging and his escape from the death penalty was very narrow. The jury was a splendid one and its verdict will meet with approval. Rainey was visibly affected, but his wonderful nerve upheld him. He was expecting a short sentence of less than ten years. Several members of the jury said if it had been Dillard Rainey on trial he would have been hung. Mrs. Adams, the wife of the man whom Rainey murdered, sued him for ten thousand dollars damages, and as soon as the murder case was concluded, the trial of the damage case was begun.

Circuit court The attention of the Court this term has been taken up by comparatively few cases. Then days were consumed in the trial of Matt Rainey for murder, which resulted in his receiving a life sentence. The Winchester Democrat Tuesday, October 20, 1896

Circuit court Today will probably close the present term of four week’s Circuit court. The jury cases 12 tried have occupied much time. The trial of Dillard Rainey for murder was called Tuesday, and after considerable debate was continued until next term. Matt Rainey was sentenced yesterday and seemed much depressed. He made a motion for a new trial which was overruled and sentence was suspended for sixty days to enable him to take an appeal. His trial cost the Commonwealth something over five hundred dollars. The Winchester Democrat Friday, October 23, 1896

Circuit Court The principal case and one of the first set for trial is that of Dillard Rainey for the murder of Aaron Adams. The Sheriff has been ordered to summon this week a special venire of one hundred men from which to obtain a jury and the general impression is that the case will be tried. The Winchester Democrat Tuesday, February 2, 1897

Circuit Court Since our last issue the attention of the Circuit court has been taken up with the trial of Dillard Rainey for the murder of Aaron Adams. The evidence closed yesterday at noon, but to the hour of going to press no verdict had been reached. The Winchester Democrat Friday, February 12, 1897

TO HANG The Death Penalty Given to Dillard Rainey. The Murder of Aaron Adams to Be Avenged. The Majesty of the Law Vindicated. Not in a spirit of vengeance; not with an outburst of wrath nor with the savage senselessness of mob violence; but with the calm, dignified majesty of the law has the blood of Aaron Adams, which cries from the ground, been avenged, or will be when the sentence of the law is executed. A thrill of horror went through our people when the causeless, cruel murder was committed, and when the news spread Saturday that the death penalty had been awarded the murderer, there was a verdict of assent almost universal, and the only regret was that Matt Rainey, the prisoner’s father, did not receive the same sentence. The crime was a most atrocious one, and with no mitigating circumstances. Matt Rainey and James Henry had differences concerning a piece of land near the mouth of Upper Howard’s Creek, and Henry had placed Frank Haggard in possession as a tenant. Rainey hauled the fence from around Haggard’s garden leaving it open to the stock. Haggard hauled the rails back again and a quarrel on the 13th of last May in which Rainey shot Haggard inflicting a wound that it was thought would prove fatal. Mrs. Haggard saw Aaron Adams passing along the road and asked him to go for a doctor. Adams went after Dr. T. S. Allen, who lived near, and returning with the physician half an hour later, he was met by Matt Rainey and Dillard Rainey, father and son. Matt was armed with a gun and Dillard with a pistol. The former raised his gun to shoot Adams, but was prevented by Dr. Allan. With an oath he told his son to shoot and the latter did so. As Adams sank down pierced with a number of balls, Matt Rainey savagely tried again to shoot him. Deputy Sheriff Eperson was in the neighborhood and arrested Matt Rainey at once. Dillard escaped, although the officers once got close enough to shoot at him. He went through the mountains and was finally arrested at Roanoke, Va., under an assumed name. Matt Rainey was tried last fall and got a life sentence. He took an appeal and since has been in jail here. Two or three feeble attempts were made to mob him here last Spring but they lacked leadership. Since he has been in jail he has incurred the ill- will of the officers and fellow prisoners all whom concur in saying he is the meanest man with whom they have ever had dealings. The trial of Dillard Rainey began last Tuesday. The evidence closed Thursday at noon and was argued until the next morning when it was given to the jury, which brought in a verdict of guilty and fixing the death penalty the next day. When the prisoner heard it he turned deathly pale and seemed almost overcome. He soon recovered and was taken back to jail cursing the jury and vowing that he would never be hung. Neither of the prisoners have ever shown any remorse for the poor widow and the six helpless children. This will make the second sentence pronounced by Judge Scott, the other being the negro Will Taylor, who was hung for the murder of Squire Doty, in Madison county a year or two ago. If Rainey is hung it will make the fourth legal hanging in the county, and the first white man to be hung. Many years ago Jesse Winn, a negro, was hung near where Col. R. N. Winn’s residence now stands, for the murder of Wm. Emerson, a white man, who owned him or had him hired. In August, 1839, a young negro named Knight was hung on the Lexington pike near F. H. Dudley’s. He belonged to Mr. Morris who lived on Stoner and had committed a rape on a little white girl. In April, 1841, a negro man, belonging to Daniel Spar, broke into a house and disemboweled his wife. The latter got well, but the negro was hung for housebreaking. The negro woman belonged to Geo. Anderson and her assailant was hung near the far end of the C. and O. trestle on the side of Poynterville. In November, 1850, Thomas Nichols killed his master, Fred B. Nichols, at a rock quarry on the Lexington pike. He was hung about Christmas of the same year. The late Wm. Simpson was Sheriff at the time, and not liking the job of hanging the negro, he employed Marsh Lawrence to tie the rope. A year or two later Marsh Lawrence was killed by his brother, Jack Lawrence. The latter fled to Missouri, but was caught, brought back and sentenced to be hung. He was the first white man in the county to 13 receive the death sentence, but was finally pardoned by Gov. Powell. About seventeen years ago, Ben. Plunkett was lynched, being hung to a tree in the Courthouse yard, the charge being an attempt assault on Miss Annie Ball, now Mrs. Bradford. In the fall of 1895 Bob Haggard was hung from the bridge on the Muddy Creek pike for a similar assault on Miss Elkin of near Ford. No motion has yet been made for a new trial, but this will be done. Since the death penalty has been given to Dillard, his father says he does not wish a new trial, but is inclined to accept the life sentence given him last fall. The general opinion is that if he should secure a new trial he would also be hung. The Winchester Democrat Tuesday, February 16, 1897.

Matt Rainey’s Appeal Dismissed Satisfied by the verdict in the case of his son Dillard that a Clark county jury may and will inflict the death penalty, Matt Rainey has had his appeal dismissed in the Court of Appeals, and will accept the sentence of imprisonment for life for the murder of Aaron Adams. The Winchester Democrat Friday, February 19, 1897

Quick Time Attorney J. M. Benton broke the trial record in a damage suit here last Wednesday in the trial of the suit for Mrs. Adams, the widow of Aaron Adams, against the two Raineys, father and son, for killing her husband last May. The plaintiff claimed ten thousand dollars and within fifteen minutes after the case was called for trial, the jury was selected, case stated, testimony heard, the jury instructed and verdict for five thousand dollars returned into court, and a half hour later an execution was in the hands of Sheriff Hodgkin for the amount of the judgement giving the widow a lien on the property of defendants which is worth about $4,000. After the payment of reasonable attorney’s fees to Rainey’s lawyers, which are secured by mortgage, Mrs. Adams ought to realize $1,500 to $2,000 which will give her a good home for herself and five little children. The Winchester Democrat Friday, February 19, 1897

Dillard Rainey has cause to regard the number thirteen as being unlucky. He murdered Adams on the 13th of May, was captured in Virginia on the 13th of the month and was sentenced to be hung on the 13th. The Winchester Democrat Friday, February 26, 1897

Clark county has had, according to the recollection of the oldest citizens of that county, five hangings, and if Dillard Rainey hangs, as has been decreed by a jury, it will be the sixth hanging for this Democratic county. Every one of the men hanged were negroes, of course, because Democratic counties like Clark never hang anybody but men with colored skins. The juries in Clark county are like the ones in our own dear Madison, hard to see the faults of white men, and as has been very truly said before, a white man may take the life of a fellow man in cold blood and a jury will acquit him, but if a colored person steals a jar of jam, he gets a free ride to the pen. When Kentucky juries begin to realize that men with other skins than white ones, have feelings as well as white men with clear complexion, it will be a better day for the State, and all men will fare better and suffer alike.—Richmond Pantagraph Fie. Bro. Adams, what’s biting you. There are a great many men both white and black who should be hung and many more should be in the penitentiary. Very few persons of either color have been punished that did not deserve all they got, and this effort of our neighbor to stir up race prejudice is unworthy of the Pantagraph. The Winchester Democrat Friday, March 5, 1897

Before the Higher Court The case of Dillard Rainey, now a prisoner in our jail under sentence of death for the murder Aaron Adams, was argued Thursday before the Court of Appeals and submitted. Capt. Hathaway argued the case in his behalf. The Winchester Democrat Tuesday, April 20, 1897

Bloomingdale A little girl of Mrs. Adams was so badly burned Sunday by her clothes catching fire that it is feared she will die. Mrs. Adams hand was badly burned while trying to save her child. The little one’s father was the man killed by the Raineys. The Winchester Democrat Friday, May 21, 1897

14 THE petition of Dillard Rainey’s attorney’s for a new hearing in the Court of Appeals was filed a few days ago. If this is refused the Governor will fix a date for execution, if he refuses to commute the sentence. The Winchester Democrat Friday, June 6, 1897.

Sheriff Hodgkin received a message late yesterday afternoon stating that the death sentence of Dillard Rainey had been commuted to life imprisonment. The Winchester Democrat Tuesday, June 15, 1897

Rainey’s Commutation Just as we went to press with our last issue news was received that the death sentence of Dillard Rainey had been commuted to life imprisonment. Joseph Simcox, the Governor’s official stenographer, arrived that night with the official document. The commutation was granted upon the recommendation of the Court of Appeals. The Judges said in substance that the jury which tried the case was the judge of the facts and that as everything was regular and no errors were found in the record of the trial that the decision of the lower court must be sustained. At the same time they felt from reading the record that he was under his father’s influence and as the latter received only a life sentence the punishment of the son should be no greater. The fifteen days extension granted by the Court of Appeals for the application of his attorneys for a rehearsing would have expired Friday and while he would not have hung on that day, as many believed, he would have eventually been executed as all other remedies save an appeal to the Federal Supreme Court, had been exhausted. It would have been necessary for the Governor to set the time, however. On Wednesday, previous to his removal to Frankfort, he was baptized by Eld. Keene in the baptistery of the First Christian Church, and was afterward taken to Guadinger’s restaurant where he was given a supper of strawberries, ice cream and other delicacies. Sheriff Hodgkin, when he carried the news to him that the time would be up in two days and asked if he would be ready. Rainey turned ghastly pale and said he guessed he would be as ready as he would ever be .When Mr. Hodgkin then told him of the commutation he was overjoyed. Those in attendance think he is an utter coward at heart and if he had been hung, think he would have utterly collapsed. Rainey thinks he will get a full pardon in a few years when he says he intends to enter the ministry; as the records show that life termers are usually pardoned before they have served an average of ten years, and as Rainey is still a young man, it seems that he is not without grounds of hope. Mr. Hodgkin took him to Frankfort Tuesday evening. It is not known definitely what disposition will be made of him, but it is thought he will be assigned to work in the shoe shop. His father, Matt Rainey, is said to be one of the most refractory convicts in the penitentiary. At last accounts he was in the dungeon, where he had been put as a punishment for an assault on a fellow prisoner. The latter will recover though he was sent to the hospital on account of his injuries. The Winchester Democrat Friday, June 18, 1897

Mary and Annie Rainey, who have been attending the school for the blind at Louisville, are home much improved. They are the daughters of Matt Rainey who is serving a life sentence in the penitentiary for the murder of Aaron Adams. The Winchester Democrat Friday, July 16, 1897.

CITY, COUNTY, STATE ACTING Governor Worthington has refused the application of J. Matt Rainey for pardon. The Winchester Democrat Tuesday, July 13, 1897.

Mementos of a Shooting Scrape About eighteen months ago, Frank Haggard was shot by Matt. Rainey, just previous to the killing of Aaron Adams by the Rainey’s father and son, which crime they are now explaining in the penitentiary. For a time it was thought Haggard would die, but he got well. One day last week one of the bullets was cut out of his leg, where it had given much trouble. Another mangled his thumb and still another is located somewhere in his anatomy. Haggard does not know exactly where. The Winchester Democrat Friday, September 3, 1897

Refused a Pardon. Gov. Bradley this week refused a pardon to Dillard Rainey who was given a life term in the penitentiary for the murder of Aaron Adams. The petition was in the form of a personal letter from the prisoner. Some time ago he refused to pardon Matt. Rainey, whose sentence of death had been previously commuted to life imprisonment. The Winchester Democrat Friday, December 9, 1898

Death Of Matt Rainey The remains of Matt Rainey, who died in the penitentiary Wednesday night, were brought home Friday and were buried beside those of his wife at the Henry Brock graveyard. Rainey was sent to the penitentiary for life for the brutal murder of Aaron Adams a few years ago. A son, Dillard Rainey, is serving a life sentence for the same crime. The Winchester Democrat Tue., Nov. 20, 1900

A Penitentiary Fight. A dispatch from Frankfort says: “Dillard Rainey, of Clark county, and Albert Elmore, of Green county, life convicts in the penitentiary, fell out over some trivial matter and went after each other with knives. When they were separated each had a half dozen wounds about the face and upper part of the body, and was seriously but not fatally hurt. The fight began as the men were en route to the cell house. They were only a few feet apart, and a remark of one about the other started the trouble. Both are white men and were sent up for murder. Rainey is well connected in Clark and Montgomery counties and recently a strong effort has been made to secure a pardon or parole for him.” Rainey was sentenced to death in the Clark Circuit Court for the murder of Aaron Adams, and his father, Matt Rainey, was given a life sentence for the same offense. As it was thought the younger Rainey committed the crime under the influence of his father his sentence was commuted by the Governor to life imprisonment. The elder Rainey died in the penitentiary some time ago. The Winchester Democrat Friday, June 21, 1901.

Premature Action. Notice to the County Judge and County Attorney was given by publication in the last issue of The Democrat of the intention to apply to the proper authorities for the parole of Dillard Rainey now under confinement in the penitentiary for life for the murder of Aaron Adams some years ago. This action is very much premature. He was sentenced on February 26, 1897, and the law says a convict under life sentence shall not be paroled until he has served at least ten years of his sentence. Thus it will be seen that it will be years before he can legally be paroled. The crime for which he was sentenced was one of the most brutal and cold blooded ever perpetrated in the county. The victim, who was the husband and father of a family, was shot in cold blood while pleading for his life. A jury of his peers who gave him a patient trial, sentenced him to be hung, and a soft hearted Governor commuted the sentence. He should be thankful that his life was spared, and all good citizens should endeavor to see that he is not freed to repeat his crime. The Winchester Democrat Tuesday, March 3, 1903

Beverly claimed that the shooting was accidental. The Winchester Democrat Tuesday, September 18, 1894

THE Hopkinsville Kentuckian comments after, the following fashion on the recent hanging of Beverly Adams in that town: “The hanging of a friendless negro in this city Friday was not the kind of an execution that is most needed in this county to make criminals respect the law. Out of twelve legal hangings in this county but one of them ended the career of a white man. There have been plenty of opportunities to punish white murderers, but somehow or other they have all managed to save their necks, and most of them their liberty. So it has been with colored criminals who could raise enough money to resist the law. It is only the poor and friendless negroes who have been hanged in Christian county during the last forty years. Within the last few years men just as guilty as Beverly Adams have been turned loose by chicken-hearted juries. The execution of one guilty prominent citizen, white or colored, would do as much good as the hanging of a dozen Jordan Taylors and Beverly Adamses.” The Winchester Democrat Friday, October 5, 1894 Adams, Bill The Winchester Sun Tues., 12-10-1940 Adams, Bobby The Winchester Sun Mon., 3-9, 3-11-1987 Adams, Bobby Cole The Winchester Sun Tues., 5-30, 5-31-2000 Adams, Butler The Winchester Sun Mon., 5-24-1926 Adams, Caleb The Winchester Sun Thur., 3-20-1924 Adams, Carl B.

To the boys and girls it brings visions of coasting and skating unlimited pleasure. To the mother it brings hours of anxiety, and visions of colds and pneumonia, or something worse. To one heartbroken mother the worst was realized. Wednesday morning, Joe Douglass, the seven-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. James B. Adams, who live just beyond the city limits on the Colby pike, went skating on the old Beckner pond. A portion of the ice had been gathered from the pond on the day previous and on that part of the pond the ice was very thin. The lad was alone and it is supposed, skated n thin-ice, which broke with him. Half an hour after he left the house his body was found by Hozan Powell. It was still warm and every effort was made to resuscitate him, but without effect. Coroner Alexander summoned jury composed of D. S. Haggard, J. H. Oden, J. L. Allan, J. L. Stroud, J. M. Powell Sr., and E. S. Jouett, Sr., who returned a verdict in accordance with the foregoing facts. The body was interred in the Winchester cemetery, with services at the grave by Eld. I. J. Spencer.

Adams had died very suddenly and the news proved too true. He was down in town until near noon and started home to dinner. When he reached his residence he complained of a pain in his chest and in a few moments expired. He was born in this county sixty-four years ago and had always lived here. In early life he married Miss Amanda E. Jones who with four children survives him. Of a large family of brothers and sisters, one brother and three sisters have outlived him, Lewis Adams, Mrs. Lucinda Watts, Mrs. Wm. Watts, of this county, and Robert Adams and Mrs. W. C. Jones, of Madison county. He was a prominent contractor and builder and a year or two ago he fell from the roof of a building on Highland street and received injuries from which he had been a cripple ever since. He was firm in his convictions though not offensive in the enunciation, and perhaps no man was more popular with those whose political belief differed from him. He had never been a very active politician, but was elected a member of the fiscal Court at the last election and was highly respected by his colleagues. He was also for a while town marshal of Winchester. He was an enthusiastic and devoted Mason and was rarely absent from the meetings of the lodge. He had been an officer of Winchester Lodge No. 12 for many years, and was also a member of the local Royal Arch Chapter. For more than a third of a century he had been consistent member of the Christian church and was rarely absent from public worship. The funeral was preached at the First Christian church Sunday afternoon by Eld. Keene and the remains were buried in the cemetery with Masonic honors. The death angel has made frequent visits to this household in the last two or three years. Within that time the family have stood around the open graves of father, three daughters, two grand daughters and one grandson. The Winchester Democrat Tuesday, July 23, 1895.

WHEREAS, It has pleased the Great Architect of the Universe to remove from the scene of his earthly labors, our beloved brother, JOHN W. ADAMS. Be it resolved. 1.That in the death of BRO. ADAMS this lodge has suffered a loss well nigh irreparable; that the county has lost a citizen and officer than whom no better one is left; that his family has lost an affectionate husband and father, and the church a faithful and consistent member. 2.That while we deplore the loss of our brother, we will ever cherish his memory and his zeal for the good of the order will be a continual incentive to renewed activity on our part. 3.That the lodge be draped in mourning, and that the members wear the usual badge of mourning for thirty days. 4.That these resolutions be spread upon the minutes of the lodge and a copy be sent to the family of the deceased brother, and published in the county papers.

We cannot refrain from making mention of the appointment of Rice P. Scobee, to fill the vacancy of Squire Adams deceased.

Green Adams, was Circuit Judge and Congressman from that district. Educated at Centre College he studied law, and from 1850 to 1861 was Clark of the Circuit Court of Knox county. He enlisted in the Union army, and served for a time as Captain. For several years he was paymaster of volunteers. Maj. Adams was four times elected to Congress from the Tenth district, serving from 1866 to 1874 inclusive. When the Democratic House of Representatives assembled in 1876 he was elected Clerk of that body. He was again elected to the position in 1878 and 1880. He spent a goodly fortune in his races, all of which except that against John D. White for Congress in 1882, he won by majorities which did him much credit. After fifteen years of public service in Washington, Maj. Adams returned to Barbourville after his defeat by White with very little money. When J. G. Cecil, who was Register of the Land Office of Kentucky died in 1883, Gov. Knott appointed Maj. Adams to fill the vacancy for the unexpired term. In 1887 Gov. Buckner appointed him Secretary of State. Upon the expiration of his term he went to Ashland, Ky., where he was engaged in developing the resources of the State. In 1890 he was candidate for the Democratic nomination for Clerk of the court of Appeals, but was defeated by W. W. Longmoor.”. The Winchester Democrat Friday, March 23, 1894. Adams, Matt O. (M.O.)

She was married about three years ago over the objections of her parents, eloping with Adams. After living in Illinois for a time, Mrs. Adams returned to the county to visit her parents, and at the solicitation of her parents, it is alleged, declined to return to her husband. The latter sold his property in Illinois and returned there, but he and his wife did not get along well and soon separated, she going to the home of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Kane. Several days ago the husband secured possession of their infant child, which seemed to prey upon the mother’s mind and she ended her troubles by taking poison. The Winchester Democrat Tuesday May 29, 1906

Kentucky Belle Takes Poison Following a Quarrel With Her Husband Lexington, Ky., May 28 The suicide of Mrs. Dillard Adams at her home near Waco, in Madison county, was a tragic ending to a romantic courtship and elopement, which was bitterly opposed by the parents of the young woman, Mr. and Mrs. William Kane. Following the hasty marriage the couple moved to a small town in Illinois and for a time all went well. Several weeks ago Mrs. Adams came to Kentucky to visit her parents and when she did not return at the appointed time, her husband came on to Kentucky. Following a quarrel, in which her husband left the house, Mrs. Adams swallowed a quantity of carbolic acid and before medical aid could be summoned she died. Mrs. Adams was a beautiful young woman and previous to her marriage was regarded as one of the belles of the county.

The Late Thomas Adams. After a long and useful life. Mr. Adams died at his home on Red River, in this county. He was in his 87th year, having been born in January, 1813. He had lived in Clark county for about sixty years. In mature years he became a member of the Christian Church at Log Lick and was a consistent member up to his death. He was in some respects a remarkable man. He was firm and decided in his religious and political views. He was no hypocrite in his profession. If he became a friend he was ever true. In his political convictions he was always a Democrat, and through rain or sunshine he always voted; he never stayed away from the elections. His word was as good as his bond; he never deceived friend or foe. He never held office and seeked none. He frequently acted in a fiduciary capacity in the winding up of estates in the community where he resided so long. He discharged his traits with fidelity and to the satisfaction of all persons interested. Surely such an upright citizen will be missed and the vacancy will be hard to fill.

One of the Founders of this Paper and for Thirty Years Connected with It.—His Labor Ended. The hand that wrote more than any other, the items that filled this paper for thirty years is now still in death. Mr. W. T. Adams, with his brother, Mr. J. J. Adams, who is still with the paper, founded the Winchester Sun. “One is taken and the other left.” His father, the late John W. Adams, was a citizen honored by all who knew him. His aged and venerated mother survives. Mr. Adams was the oldest of ten children, only three of whom survive, his brother, James, of this city and two sisters, Mrs. James Watts, of this city, and Mrs. S. J. Walden, of Covington, Ky. Mr. Adams was born December 6th, 1853, was married October 2nd, 1878, to Miss Carrie Galvin, of Lebanon, Ind. She died September 16th, 1900. Leaving one child, Jessie, who was with her mother’s people at the time of her father’s death. Two other children are dead. Mr. Adams was temporarily doing work for The Winchester Democrat . At 2 p. m. Monday, he started from the composing room to the office when he fell. In only a few minutes life was extinct. He had long suffered with Bright’s disease but apoplexy was the immediate cause of his death. He had faults—who of us has not! He was not what the world calls a success in life, yet he was a great success. The world is better for his having lived in it. He was kind and generous to a fault. There was not a particle of malice in him. He was a friend to everybody and everybody was his friend. He had superior talents as a newspaper man; his faculty for getting the news was remarkable and his manner of writing was always pleasing. He was an all around newspaper man; there was no detail in the office or work room with which he was not thoroughly acquainted. 31 With more ambition he would have been eminent in the profession. He represented, at the time of his death, the Cincinnati Enquirer, the Louisville Post, the Lexington Herald and Leader. His fidelity to his employers was a strong feature of his character. In his position as correspondent, he did all that any man could have done to build up his home city. The World knew through his writings everything that was for the good of Winchester. We doubt if there is any citizen to whom our city owes as much for its advancement as to W. T. Adams, and we know of no man that can fill his place. To his intimate friends, he was known as “Bill,” and the young people called him Mr. “Bill.” It was a name given in honor and affection. The Sun-Sentinel, Thursday, May 18, 1905

The jury gave Addison a verdict for $599.99, the net cash value of the boy’s life from eight to twenty-one, when he would have been his own master, figuring it in this way: From eight to ten years old the boy would have been able to make 45 cents a week. During that period it would cost 35 cents a week to keep him. From 10 to twelve he would have made 75 cents a week, and it would have cost $ 1.25 to keep him. From twelve to fourteen he would have made $4 a week, and the living cost would have been $2. From fifteen to eighteen he would have made $8 a week, and the living cost would have $4.

Josiah Aldridge Commits Suicide by Cutting His Throat at Richmond. Josiah Aldridge, of this county, committed suicide at Richmond Saturday afternoon by cutting his throat while insane. He was raised in this county and was about sixty years old. Some fifteen or twenty years ago he was whipped by the ku klux for alleged mistreatment of his wife. This so preyed on his mind that he became deranged and was sent to the asylum. He staid there for a short time and was discharged as cured. He had since been considered sane although occasional aberrations of mind were noticed. Ten days ago he came to town and deeded his farm to his son and daughter by his first wife, in equal shares, saying he expected to live with them for the remainder of life. Tuesday his daughter, the wife of Jack Rainey, became deranged and was quite violent and the following day she was sent to the asylum. The violence of his daughter seemed to unsettle his mind and he left home late at night and came to this city where he was found by the police. He then went to jailer Boone’s and engaged board. He staid there several days and showed little or no symptoms of insanity until Friday when he told Mr. Boone that he believed his life to be in danger and asked protection. Friday afternoon he left town without an overcoat and was seen a few miles from town on the Colby pike. Searching parties were sent out but failed to find him. At noon the next day he was at Flanagan considerably frozen and said he had traveled all the previous night. He bought a ticket to Richmond and from his talk the Conductor notified the police of that city that he was crazy. The policemen talked to him and found nothing to indicate insanity and did not take him in charge. Aldridge walked up the road a short distance and entered a box car where he was found a few moments after with his throat cut from ear to ear. A pocket knife almost as sharp as a razor was used and he died in a few moments. The remains were brought here Sunday and carried to his old home on four Mile for burial. He was twice married. His first wife was Miss Reese, who left two children, a son, now living in Illinois, and a daughter, the wife of Jack Rainey who was sent to the asylum last week. His second wife was Miss Owen who left one daughter now about half grown. The Winchester Democrat Tuesday, February 14, 1899.

The Winchester Sun Wed., 3-31-1943 Alexander, Gayle The Winchester Sun Mon., 8-8-1927 Alexander, George Mt. Sterling had her usual killing Saturday, but by way of variety the victim was a white man. George Alexander, a painter, with several hands was returning from work in a spring wagon, when they met a couple of wagons loaded with lumber owned by English Anderson. The foremost wagon was driven by a negro and crowded Alexander’s wagon nearly off the pike. Alexander remonstrated and Anderson came to the negro’s aid. After a few words Anderson drew a big knife and plunged it into Alexander’s heart. Lee Conley who was with Alexander attempted to stop Anderson and was badly cut. Alexander leaves a wife and six children. He was a brother to Coroner John Alexander, of this city. Anderson is a son of the noted Shorthorn breeder, Corwin Anderson. He is a man of violent temper, and once shot a negro woman because she kicked his dog. He was arrested and lodged in jail and there was strong talk of lynching at first, but cooler heads prevailed. The Winchester Democrat Tuesday June 26, 1894

In the Mt. Sterling Circuit Court the case of English Anderson for the murder of George Alexander was continued on account of absent witnesses. The Winchester Democrat Friday, September 21, 1894

The trial of English Anderson for the murder of George Alexander is in progress at Mt. Sterling. Anderson tried to get a continuance but Judge Cooper overruled him. Last June Alexander was on his way home from a job of painting in the country when he met a couple of lumber wagons one driven by a negro and the other driven by Anderson. Alexander called to the negro to give him room to pass and Anderson commanded the negro not to do so. A wordy war ensued and Anderson stabbed Alexander to death. The Winchester Democrat Friday, January 25, 1895

Cunningham is the proprietor of a brick kiln and employed Alexander as a molder. This morning they quarreled, and Alexander signified his intention of leaving, and was answered that he could so as soon as he pleased—to come to the office and he would be paid the amount due him. Alexander then left and went down street, and after having taken several drinks, armed himself and commenced to take in the town, telling that if Cunningham didn’t pay him before night blood would be spilled. He walked up to the house where Cunningham resided, the front part of which is occupied by John Hainley as a shoe store. While boasting of what he would do Cunningham came in and asked what was the matter. Alexander replied that he wanted a settlement from him before night, and would have it or somebody would get killed. Cunningham told him to go away and come back when sober, and then turned to leave, when Alexander drew a large Smith & Wesson revolver and pointed it at Cunningham, who in turn drew a pistol and fired three times. One of the bullets struck Alexander in the left cheek, killing him instantly, Cunningham was arrested and brought to Paris, but gave bond for his appearance Wednesday.

He was born in this county March 12, 1823, and was the last survivor of a family of thirteen children. His father, Hon. Chilton Allan, was one of the most distinguished men of the State and represented this district more than once in Congress. Dr. Allan graduated from Center College in 1842 and began the study of medicine with Drs. John and A. Mills, of this city. In 1846 he graduated from the Medical Department of Transylvania University and began the practice of medicine here. In 1866 he removed to Lexington where he since resided. He was a man of wonderful information, a careful and honest practitioner and possessed of the faculty of making and retaining friends. His wife, who was Miss Sue Vanmeter, of this county, survives him, but the couple was always childless. Dr. Chilton Allan, of this city, is the only surviving nephew. A niece, Mrs. Barbara McFarland, also survives, but she has been an inmate of the asylum for many years. A singular coincidence is that Dr. Allan and his father both died at the same age. The following resolutions were passed by the Fayette Medical Society: Resolved, That the Lexington and Fayette Medical Society in special meeting express to his wife its sympathy and condolence at her sudden and great bereavement. 2d. That a copy of this tribute to his memory be sent her with the signatures of the officers of this society. 3d. That a copy of this tribute to his memory be sent to the papers of Clark county and of this city. 4th. That as a mark of esteem that we attend his funeral. Dr. W. B. McClure, President. Dr. R. L.

An Old Will Found Some time ago Dr. Algernon Sidney Allan, formerly of this county, died at his home in Lexington. He left no children and Dr. Chilton Allan, of this city, and the latter’s sister were the nearest kin and heirs to that part of his property that was not inherited by the dead man’s wife. Not long ago, Deputy County Clerk Fox while looking through some musty old papers, found a will signed by Dr. Allan dated 1860 and witnessed by Geo. M. Jackson and Will P. Winn, who were at that time deputy clerks in the office , which

46 bequeathed all his property to his wife without reservation. The Winchester Democrat Friday, May 10, 1895

He arose at an early hour, as was his custom, and telling his wife that he felt chilly, he lay down upon the bed and expired in a moment. He was a little past forty years of age and was a son of Dr. Webb Allan, who died here many years ago. His mother, who was a Miss Burch, of Missouri, is still living and is the wife of Mr. Woodrow, a Presbyterian minister of San Francisco, Cal. He was a native of this county but in early life went to Missouri. His wife, formerly Miss Lucy Frost, of that State survives him, together with a son, Webb, aged sixteen and a daughter, Sadie, aged fourteen. His father was a prominent physician and his grandfather. Hon. Chilton Allan, was one of the most prominent men in the State and represented this district in Congress for several years. Chilton Allan, Sr., left a large family, but the son and daughter of the deceased are the only living representatives. Dr. Allan was a fine physician and especially skilled in surgery. He was a gentle, companionable man and had many warm friends. He was a member of Hickman Lodge I. O. O. F., of this city. The remains will probably be shipped to Plattsburg, Mo., the home of Mrs. Allan’s people for interment. The Winchester Democrat Tuesday, October 8, 1895

Funeral of Dr. Allan The remains of Dr. Chilton Allan were not taken to Missouri but were deposited in the vault here, pending the final decision of the family as to their last resting place. The funeral was preached at the family residence by Rev. H. H. Sneed formerly Rector of Immanuel church, this city, after which Hickman Lodge, I. O. O. F. took charge of the remains which were deposited in the vault with the beautiful ceremonies of the order. Dr. Allan was surgeon of the Fire Department which sent a beautiful floral design, with the initials “W. F. D.” and the motto “Tuedor” at the base. T. D. Frost and Miss Hattie Frost, brother and sister of Mrs. Allan, are here from Plattsburg, Mo. The Winchester Democrat Friday, October 11, 1895

HON. CHILTON ALLAN. The Hon. Chilton Allan was for fifty years a member of the Winchester Bar. He was a native of Virginia, and born of poor parentage had no advantages of an early education. He remarked to a friend of the writer that in his early youth he made the acquaintance of Rev. John Lyle, a distinguished Presbyterian minister, and Rev. William Kavanaugh, both of whom resided at the time in Clark County Kentucky, in what was called the Salem neighborhood. He attracted the attention of these gentlemen by his genius and talent as youth. They invited him to attend the academy in the neighborhood where he received his elementary training, and, improving upon the opportunity, he became very 47 studious and soon entered upon the study of law in Winchester, Ky., where in mature life, he became very eminent and successful, attaining to high position, in his financial and social prospects. Chilton Allan, after being several times elected as a member of the State Legislature, was elected a member of Congress from Henry Clay’s old district after Mr. clay had been appointed Secretary of State under the administration of John Quincy Adams. He was successful politician and statesman. He was married to Miss Ann Simpson, a daughter of Capt. James Simpson, a gallant soldier in the war of 1812, and a prominent citizen of Winchester, Ky. They lived together as husband and wife for nearly a half century. He died in Winchester, Ky., in the month of September, 1858, and in the 73d year of his age. He read law under Gov. Clark. The Sun-Sentinel, Thursday, January 28, 1904. Allan, Emery On Friday Henry Fugate and Benton Brashears, the last two of the Perry county prisoners, will be taken from jail here and transferred to Hazard. A week or two ago an order for their delivery to the Sheriff of that county was presented to Jailer Piersall, but as the officer who came after them was the Circuit clerk instead of the Sheriff, the jailer refused to give them up. Brashears was indicted for shooting at Henry Caudill but claims that he was shooting at a cat and had no desire to shed human blood. Fugate got into trouble by trying to help a couple of cousins of the same name. These had been indicted for house breaking and other crimes and had fled to Virginia. On their return a warrant was placed in the hands of Emery Allen, a constable for their arrest. One of the fugitives was arrested in the field where Henry Fugate was at work and he an to inform the other of the fact. The latter seized a gun, and on the approach of the officers, fired killing Allen. For this, both the murderer and Henry Fugate were arrested. Bail was not allowed them but at the late term of the Circuit Court, Brashears was allowed bail in the sum of one thousand dollars, which he has so far been unable to give. The Winchester Democrat Wednesday, April 1, 1891

Henry Fugate, who was recently taken from jail here to be tried in Perry county for the murder of constable Emery Allan, last July, was sentenced to the penitentiary for life Saturday at Hazard. The Winchester Democrat Wednesday, May 13, 1891

Sheriff Combs of Perry county, came down on the K. U. train Thursday and remained for several hours. He was en route to Frankfort with John Bush and Henry Fugate who had been sentenced to the penitentiary from Perry county at the session of Circuit Court that has just closed. Bush was sent up for five years for breaking into a house and stealing the uniform of one of the Perry county guards. He is an old offender having just finished a five year’s term in the penitentiary from Breathitt county for horse stealing. Fugate was sentenced to life for the murder of Emery Allan last July. He was confined in jail here until a few weeks ago and seemed glad to get back if even for a few hours. The murder was a most atrocious one. Allan was a constable and had warrants for the arrest of Zack and Buck Fugate, cousins of Henry. He arrested Buck but Henry, who was at working the same field, ran and informed Zack. These two armed themselves and lay in wait for Allan and shot him to death. They fled to Virginia where Henry was arrested for some crime committed there and brought back here. The verdict of the jury which tried him caused much dissatisfaction as the offender was very popular and the desire for the death penalty was almost universal. Fugate seemed very well satisfied with the verdict and told Jailer Piersall many incidents of the trial. He said Judge Lilly was very mad because the jury failed to condemn him to death and told them, ”It is strange, that after the experience of the last few years, a Perry county jury will not hang a man for the murder of an officer in the discharge of his duty. I have no doubt some of you wanted to inflict the death penalty, and such jurors as would not ought to be in hell.” Fugate is less than twenty years old, but acknowledges that he has three living wives, one in Virginia and two in this state.

James Louis Allan died at his home at Allansville Friday morning of typhoid fever, aged fifty-two years. He was the eldest son of Judge Frank S. and Elizabeth Allan, and had lived all his life in this county. He was twice married.

Winchester Lodge, No. 20, F. and A. M., also assisted in the funeral ceremonies. For many years he had been a devoted Mason and at the time of his death was a member of Winchester Lodge and also of Winchester Chapter Royal Arch Masons. Genial, courteous and polite, he was still a man of firm convictions and for years was the leader of the Democratic party in Goodes precinct when every election meant a hard fought battle. As a member of the County Committee for years his voice had great weight in the councils of his party. In every position, as husband, father, citizen, member of the church and lodge, he bore himself as a true man, and in his death Clark county loses on of her best men.

Contested will case Hon. Jas. F. Winn was in Lexington Tuesday. He is one of the counsel to prosecute the case of B.F. Vanmeter against J.M. Tanner, executor. Mr. Vanmeter is trying to break the will of his sister, Mrs. Sue Allan, widow of the late Dr. Sid Allan, and who formerly lived in this county. The case was continued until November. The Winchester Democrat Friday, June 12, 1908

Will contest Will of former Clark county resident now being contested in the Fayette circuit court One of the most closely contested cases for a long time is that in the Fayette circuit court of the will of Mrs. Susan T. Allan, the widow of Dr. Sidney Allan, formerly of this county. Mrs. Allan was Miss Vanmeter before her marriage and left all her property, except some unimportant legacies, to W.J. Loughridge. The estate is said to be worth from forty to sixty thousand dollars and includes a fine farm in this county near Old Pine Grove. The will is dated in 1874 and was signed two years later, and has a codicil dated in 1896. The plaintiffs are the relatives, led by Mr. B.F. VanMeter, her brother. There are four or five lawyers on each side, Hon. Jas. F. Winn being one for the plaintiffs. It is claimed that Mrs. Allan did not have testamentary capacity. The contest over the will recalls the fact that the will of her husband, the late Dr. Allan, which left all the property to her, came near being lost. After his death it could not be found and Dr. Webb Allan, of this city, who was unfriendly to Mrs. Allan, would have inherited a large portion of the property, but W.T. Fox, of the Clerk’s office, found it some months afterward amid some scrap paper in the vault of the office. It was written on a small sheet of note paper, but was probated and found all right. The Winchester Democrat Tuesday, December 1, 1908

The Allan will case In the Fayette Circuit court this week the Allan will case is on trial. In 1874 Mrs. Susan Allan, wife of Dr. Sidney Allan, made a will leaving her property to her husband for life and at his death to W.J. Loughridge. She outlived her husband and by a codicil made in 1896, she left to the widow of W.D. Nicholas $1,000; to Ben Vanmeter, Jr., and Marshall Vanmeter, Jr., $500 and to her brother, Abram Vanmeter, the same amount. The will is contested by Ben F. Vanmeter, formerly of this county, and other relatives. Hon. Jas. F. Winn, of this city, is one of the attorneys for the contestants. The amount of property involved is about $75,000 and embraces a farm of 200 acres near Old Pine Grove this county, and a house in Lexington. The Winchester Democrat Friday, February 18, 1910

Will sustained The jury of the Fayette Circuit court which for several weeks has been hearing the effort to break the will of Mrs. Susan Allan, on Saturday brought in a verdict sustaining it. Something like fifty thousand dollars was involved including a farm of two hundred acres in this county, nearly all of which was left to William Loughridge, of Lexington. Hon. James F. Winn, of this city, was one of the lawyers for the contestants. The Winchester Democrat Tuesday, March 8, 1910

Runyan, city marshall, and Alfred Allen, a lumberman, lie dead, as the result of bullet wounds. Runyan was shot by Allen, whom he was attempting to arrest. As he fell he fired two bullets into Allen. Allen died instantly, but Runyan lived several minutes. During the evening several other shots were fired in different parts of the town. The marshal was trying to catch the party doing it. About 8 o’clock some shots were fired at the corner of Broadway and College avenue. Marshal Runyan, being near, ran toward the shooting. It is supposed he met Allen near the corner, and from all appearances, they clinched, and had a struggle. No one knows at what time in the struggle they commenced shooting. Runyan was trying to take Allen’s revolver, and had it, together with his own, when he fell. Runyan is from Boyd county, was a fearless officer and a terror to law breakers.

Four Men Were Shot Instead of Two By Young Clarence Shipp-Is Still at Large. Lebanon, July 5.-Clarence Shipp, aged 17, who a few days ago, it is claimed, ambushed and assassinated Richard Horde and seriously wounded John Allen on Scott’s Ridge, this county, has not yet been apprehended, although a posse has been searching for him, and believe they will shortly capture him. Deputy Sheriff Jack T. Fisher brought in and placed in jail Guidion Shipp, an 11-year old brother of Clarence Shipp, the alleged assassin. He was with his brother in the thicket when the fatal shots were fired. He declares he is innocent, but admits having been with his brother when the shots were fired. It has been learned that four men were shot instead of two, as at first reported. Horde, who died, had 40 buckshot in his breast and head. Dave Allen was mortally wounded and John Allen is badly shot, but not seriously. A lunch basket he carried protected him. The Winchester Democrat Tuesday, July 9, 1901.

He died, apparently, and laid on the cooling board six hours, but was warm when placed in the coffin. The arms were limber and had to be tied across the body to keep them in place. The burial took place, and after the coffin was lowered into the grave the sexton said the Negroes wanted to act like white folks and left the grave to be filled up by the sexton. When he threw dirt in he heard a kicking on the lid and went off to get some one to help him take the body up, but could get no assistance. He then went back and proceeded to fill the grave, the entombed man kicking all the time, but no attention was paid to the kick, as the sexton said it was too late to kick then.

The Winchester Sun Sat., 3-22-1975 Allen, Mrs. Mildred Sympson A Good Woman Gone. Saturday morning at 9:30 o’clock Mrs. Mildred Sympson Allen shot herself, death being instantaneous. She was born and partially reared here, being the daughter of Mr. Al. Sympson. Her mother, who was a Miss Martin died when she was quite young and she was reared by her aunt Mrs. Davis Buckner in Lexington. The cause of her death was domestic troubles. She was a woman of the loveliest character and known by everyone rich and poor in the city of her residence. She sang with a sweetness beyond description and her glorious gift was the drawing card for years to every charitable entertainment. The Lexington papers truly reflect the grief of the whole community when they give so much space to the expression of their sorrow.

The Herald quotes Matthew Arnold’s beautiful “Requiescat” Strew on her roses, roses, And never a spray of yew! In quiet she reposes; Ah! Would that I did too.

Her mirth the world required; She bathed it in smiles of glee, But her heart was tired, tired, And now they let her be.

Her life was turning, turning, In mazes of heat and sound; But for peace her soul was yearning, And now peace laps her round.

Her cabin’d, ample spirit, It fluttered and failed for breath; To night it doth inherit The vastly halls of death.

The funeral took place Sunday morning. Her cousins, Messrs. Hub and Jouett Simpson, were pall bearers.

In Memoriam Nestled among the Hills of Upper Howard’s Creek, Clark County, Kentucky, lived J. W. Allen and wife who walked in the bond of wedlock for nearly a half century. The bond was broken by the death of Mrs. Allen January 28, 1898. Nancy Allen the deceased, was the daughter of Younger Hisle, born March 22, 1832; was married to J. W. Allen September 6, 1849. They walked happily together for these years; worked hard, sharing equally the burdens of life. They soon accumulated enough to secure a comfortable home, where they have ever since lived and reared their family. For the past six years Mrs. Allen had been almost an invalid. She fulfilled the many requirements of her life nobly. As a wife, she was loving; no task too long; no burden too heavy; no trial so great but what she shouldered her part without a murmur; as a mother she gave birth to twelve children, (of which ten survive her) always giving them the best instruction and training to her knowledge. She lived for her children. When she would be looking for any of them home, she almost always had some little thing laid away for them to take away with them. As a neighbor and friend she was accommodating, and had friends many. As a citizen, loyal; as a sufferer, patient, and as to her death, triumphant. She is gone; the aged bereaved husband will be lonesome without her, the attentive children will miss mother’s love and presence. There is a vacant chair, the absence of one who sat as queen in the home. There is a peculiar significance in the name Mother. 61 Affection’s tear starts at the sound, but”It is the bruised flower, the broken alabastron that pours forth the aroma.” Though attended with much suffering, her last days were her best. She was perfectly rational to the end, and willing to go. About three days before she died, the children were called to her bedside, when she said, “I am going home; meet me in heaven: Jesus is with me.” She made all needed arrangements as if she was going off on a journey to return soon. It was evident the end was near, she would soon have to say farewell, but not forever, for “We’ll meet our sainted mother there, never to say farewell.” Her spirit had grown too near like to that of the glorified for her to abide here longer. She has climbed the skies, and a harp has been handed her, where she will make music with the heavenly band forever. Her remains were interred in the Winchester cemetery January 29th. “And when at last in Heaven Our souls shall find their place, I think that next to Jesus We’ll prize our mother’s face.” E. A.

Mayfield, Ky., Feb. 24.—A mob of about 300 or 400 citizens of Mayfield and Graves county gathered from different points in the outskirts of the city and dragged Richard Allen, colored, out of the jail and carried him to the courthouse yard and swung him to a tree. Allen was arrested several days ago for burglary and it was for this crime that he was strung up. He was a member of a gang who are responsible for wholesale robberies in this vicinity. Summary justice will be meted out to the others if captured. The citizens of the town greatly deplore the act but it seems to be the only remedy with which to stop the burglaries.

A Mob At Mayfield Administers Lashes to a Number of Negro Characters. Mayfield, Ky., March 1.—Since the lynching of Dick Allen last Wednesday night there has been much excitement over the mob question. There seems to be a determination to run out a number of colored characters to whom warnings have been sent out. Saturday night a mob of 20 men went to the home of Noah McReynolds, a Negro youth, and administered 30 lashes with a whip. After the whipping the mob told their victim to leave immediately, which he did. Other Negro homes were visited, but the men could not be found. Several officers have been placed on night duty to prevent further trouble.

Beattyville, Ky., Aug. 19.—News has reached here of a terrible fight near Traveler’ Rest, Owsley county, as a result of which Jesse Nealy is dead. Robert Allen was mortally wounded. James Nealy’s arm shot off, Reuben Fox badly wounded, four others whose names can not now be learned were slightly wounded and Mrs. William Peters was shot in the leg. The fight occurred Saturday night at a candy pulling at the home of Wm. Peters and originated between Jesse Nealy and Robert Allen over a girl. Nealy knocked Allen down with his fist. While Allen was down he drew his revolver and shot Nealy through the brain, killing him instantly. About this time others began to fire. Robert Allen was shot six times, when he rolled under the bed, where he lay with an empty pistol by his side until morning. All the time the body of Jesse Nealy, whom he had killed, lay in the same room only a few feet away. John Allen, one of the principals in the fight, was making his escape when Jim Nealy, a brother of Jesse Nealy tried to arrest him. Allen turned on Nealy, shot his right arm off and succeeded in making his escape.

In 1781 he sold 16,125 acres to John Holder, which left him 17,690 acres undisposed of. Graham died, leaving three children, George, Catherine and George W., the last named being an infant. In 1823 John and Catherine, the two adults appointed Hon. Chilton Allan their attorney in fact with power to sue and dispose of their undivided two-thirds interest in this land, which he did, reserving one-third in each deed that he made to purchasers. In the year 1854, George W. Graham (the infant), then of age, conveyed this one-third interest belonging to him to Chilton Allan. In 1858 Mr. Allan died, leaving a will in which he devised this one-third interest to his own son, W. B. Allen, who died in 1862, leaving as his only heir Chilton Allan, then a small boy, who is now of age, asserting his claim to this land. About 800 acres of his one-third lies in Clark and the rest in Estill. W.D. Jackson, his attorney, will earnestly prosecute the claim, assisted by Col. Jas. Flanagan, of this place, and W.O. Dodd, of Louisville. The suit for possession will be brought in the United States Court. The Clark County Democrat Wednesday, August 6, 1879 Allen, W.

To Be Envied. The death of Bush Allin, of Harrodsburg recalls the fact that the Allin family have the Circuit of County Clerkship and much of the time both for the past one hundred years.

Wednesday is fixed for the trial of a $50,000 damage case brought by Rev. Almbaugh for the death of his son who was killed by a D. C. train near riverside. The Winchester Democrat Friday, February 15, 1895.

Circuit Court The Alumbaugh case for fifty thousand dollars damages for the killing of young A. J. Alumbaugh by the K. C. road at Riverside, is the biggest case and is set for May 21st. The Winchester Democrat Tuesday, May 7, 1895

Circuit Court Nothing special has been done in the Circuit Court since our last issue, the Alumbaugh case occupying the attention of the court. A year or two ago A. J. Alumbaugh, a boy from Wolfe county got on the K. C. train at Elkin with a companion. They had neither 69 tickets or money and were put off at Riverside. As the train started they jumped on again and in a little while they fell, jumped or were knocked off and Alumbaugh was killed. His father sued the railroad for fifty thousand dollars claiming the conductor was the cause of his death. It will take several days yet. The Winchester Democrat Friday, October 4, 1895

Judge Scott will hold a special session of Circuit Court here today. One of the principal questions to be brought before him is that of granting a new trial in the Alumbaugh case. It will be remembered that the executors of A. J. Alumbaugh got a verdict against the K. C. road for ten thousand dollars, as damages for the boy who was killed near Riverside a year or two ago. The Winchester Democrat Tuesday, December 17, 1895

Circuit Court The motion for a new trial in the case in which the heirs of A. J. Alumbaugh secured a verdict for ten thousand dollars against the K. C. railroad for the death of the young man who was killed by a passenger train near Riverside, was overruled by Judge Scott, and the case will probably go to the Court of Appeals. The Winchester Democrat Friday, December 20, 1895

The only case from Clark county on the docket of the Court of Appeals from the present term is that of the L. & N. Railroad vs. Alumbaugh. This is a case in which the administrator of young Alumbaugh sued for fifty thousand dollars damages and got a verdict for ten thousand dollars for his death. He was a boy from the mountains who was killed near Riverside by the train while beating his way. The Winchester Democrat Tuesday, January 19, 1897

Case Reversed. A few years ago, A. J. Alumbaugh, an eighteen year-old boy from Wolfe county, and a companion named Warren, got on a train of the L. and N. road at Elkin to go to some point in Madison county. They had no money, a fact discovered by the conductor before the train reached Ford. About the time the train had gotten to Riverside, Alumbaugh became frightened and jumped off or was knocked or thrown off by the Conductor. He struck the bank, rolled back under the train and was killed. Suit was brought in the Clark Circuit Court for $100,000 damages and a verdict secured for $10,000. This judgement is reversed by the Court of Appeals on the ground of errors in the trial and is sent back for a new trial. The Winchester Democrat Tuesday, May 16, 1899 Settled at Last. Nearly ten years ago a lad named Alumbaugh, of Wolf county, together with a comrade, got on a train of the L. & N. Road to this city. They had no money and the conductor put them off. They got on again and were discovered by the conductor when near Ford. When he got after them again young Alumbaugh either was knocked from the train or became frightened and jumped. He struck the side of the car, rolled back and was killed by the cars. Suit in our Circuit court was brought for damages in a large amount and a verdict against the company for ten thousand dollars was rendered. The case was carried to the Court of Appeals where it lingered for some years and was finally reversed and sent back. In the Spring of 1901 it was tried again in the local court and a verdict for ten thousand dollars was again rendered. Again it was carried to the higher court, which a few months ago affirmed the decision of the circuit Court. A petition for rehearing was filed by the railroad, but on the last day of the recent term, this petition was refused. This terminates legal proceedings and leaves nothing for the railroad to do but settle. The verdict of ten thousand dollars will be increased by damages, interest and cost to about $ 12,000. The Winchester Democrat Tuesday, December 23, 1902.

The Winchester Democrat Friday, May 16, 1902 Amerine, James In the Estill Circuit Court last week the case of Hal Cockrill for the killing of Jas. Amerine was called and continued. Judge Lilly declined to sit in the case and no qualified lawyer would act as special judge. The Governor will have to appoint a special Judge and will probably call a special term of Court. The Winchester Democrat Wed., 9-18-1889

At the September term of the Estill Circuit Court, Judge Lilly declined to sit in the case of Hal Cockrell, charged with murder of Jas. Amerine, in November, 1887, and no other member of the local bar possessing the constitutional qualifications, the case was continued. Judge J. R. Morton has been appointed Special Judge and a special term for Dec. 16th has been called for that purpose. Since the killing of Amerine, Cockrell has married Miss Richardson, daughter of S. P.

Judge J. R. Morton is in Irvine this week to try Hal. Cockrill for the murder of Jas. Amerine several years ago. The case was called last week but on account of absent witnesses it was continued until yesterday. The Winchester Democrat Wednesday, July 27, 1892

One of the most exciting and hard fought trials ever held at Irvine was concluded Saturday. Hal Cockrell, son of the late Senator Cockrell, was tried for the killing of Jas. Amerine several years ago, and was sentenced to four years in the penitentiary. Cockrell married Miss Richardson, who has frequently visited relatives near Elkin. The Winchester Democrat Wednesday, July 12, 1893

An effort is being made to secure the pardon of Hal Cockrell, who was recently sentenced to the penitentiary for a term of years by Estill Circuit court for the killing of James Amerine. The Governor endorsed on the petition, declining to pardon, the following: “In this case I have wavered. My sympathies have been greatly aroused for Cockrell, but after mature consideration of all the facts, my duty requires me to decline to interfere.” The Winchester Democrat Wednesday, September 13, 1893

The case of Hall Cockrell who was sent to the penitentiary from Estill county for four years for killing Jas. Amerine, has been reversed by the Court of Appeals and he will get a new trial. The Winchester Democrat Wednesday, October 18, 1893

Advices from Frankfort says the Court of Appeals overruled the Commonwealth’s motion for a rehearing in the recently reversed case of the Commonwealth against Hal Cockrell of Irvine. Cockrell, who had received a sentence to the penitentiary for four years for killing James Amerine, therefore gets a new trial, which in view of the ruling of the high court will likely result in Cockrell’s acquittal. The Winchester Democrat Wednesday, November 15, 1893

Will probated The will of the late A.H. Anderson was admitted to probate, Monday. It is a very voluminous document and was dated February 14th, 1902. After a few minor provisions it gives his wife the portion that would be hers by law. It named Leeland Hathaway, of this city, and Jas. Hensley Jr., of West Bend, as trustees to hold his property in trust. They are directed to convert his personal property into real estate, stocks or bonds, and to purchase the life interest of his wife. If she desires to sell at a fair price. The net income of the estate is to be divided into six equal parts, to be paid annually to the following for life, with remainder to their legal children: His nephew, A.A. Clay, his sister, Susan Young, the daughters of his brother, Josiah Anderson, the living children of his nephew, Julia Clay, the children of his great nephew, English Anderson, and the children of his brother, Albert Anderson. His brother, Miller Anderson, or his descendants, are to get nothing, the testator says, for good and sufficient reasons. Messrs. Hensley and Hathaway were named as executors. By a codicil dated November 9th, 1903, the portion left to the daughters of Josiah Anderson is left to all his children instead of the daughters alone, and the portion left to Cherry and Russell Anderson, is to be placed in the hand of a trustee for their benefit. A.A. Clay and English Anderson were named as executors without bond. Messrs. Hensley and Hathaway declined to accept the trust imposed by the will, and Mr. Clay declined to act as executor. English Anderson and C.C. Chenault were appointed and qualified. The Winchester Democrat Tuesday, June 29, 1909

The Winchester Democrat Wednesday, December 24, 1890 Anderson, Charles The Winchester Sun Tues., 6-7-1921 Anderson, Charles AA The Winchester Sun Fri., 11-16-1928 Anderson, Charles AA A Cowardly Murder One of the most unprovoked and dastardly murders in the history of this section was committed on Maple street near the C. and O. trestle Saturday night. It seems that Henry Whitt, Jeff Hunter, Tom Kindred and Taylor Shoemaker, who live in the neighborhood of Colby Station, came to town and after taking on a lot of liquor, they 75 went to the house of Madame Mamie Jones. As they left there they encountered Charles Anderson in company with his wife and Mrs. Berry Jones, all colored, who were returning home from a meeting. Seeing that the white men were disposed to be boisterous, the colored party stepped aside to let them pass. White and Hunter, who were in advance of the other two, approached Mrs. Anderson, who is lame and caught hold of her. Her husband remonstrated, when one of the two said, “Shoot the d-d nigger,” and a shot was fired. Immediately all parties ran, and as Charles Anderson did not reach home a search was instituted and some time after his dead body was found where he had fallen after running a short distance. He had been shot through a large artery near the heart. All parties were arrested and Kindred was discharged, but was re- arrested the next day. While the testimony is somewhat conflicting it is pretty positive that Whitt did the shooting and that Hunter who is his nephew, was present and abetted in the killing. They were tried before Judge Benton yesterday and Whitt and Hunter were held over without bail, and Kindred was discharged, as it seems he had nothing to do with the killing. Whitt is wanted in Nicholas county for an aggravated assault. Anderson was a very orderly and popular man. He was for a time janitor of the Y. M. C. A. rooms. His wife was one of the teachers in the public schools and is a very modest, worthy woman. Public indignation is much wrought up over the affair, and justice, which in this instance means a hempon necktie, should be meted out. We have the best colored population of any town in Kentucky and they are entitled to and will doubtless receive the full protection of the law. The Winchester Democrat Wed., 6-22-1892

In our notice of the Anderson murder last week we omitted to say that Mr. Shoemaker, who was charged with complicity, the evidence showed that he had nothing to do with the killing. The Winchester Democrat Wed., 6-29-1892

AT a late hour yesterday the jury in the case of Henry Whitt, charged with the murder of Chas. Anderson, colored, brought in a verdict sentencing the prisoner to twenty-one- years in the penitentiary. His companion, Jeff Hunter, will be tried today. The Democrat, Wednesday, November 16, 1892.

Henry Whitt, for the murder of Chas. Anderson, twenty-one years. He made a motion for a new trial, but it was overruled. The Democrat, Wednesday, November 23, 1892.

IT was reported that new evidence had been found in the case of Whitt, who was sent up for Twenty-one years for killing the negro Anderson, and that he would be granted a new trial, but such was not the case. The Democrat, Wednesday, November 23, 1892.

The following is clipped from The Standard, the organ of the colored race, published at Lexington. Ed Woodford, son of Chas. Woodford of this city is the editor. “The Clark County Circuit Court has sentenced Henry Whitt, the white murderer of Charles Anderson, to the penitentiary for twenty-one-years. A righteous judgement many will say; and so they may consider it since Whitt is a white man and Anderson was colored. An attempt was made by Whitt and two or three associated to force Anderson to flee from his wife, while accompanying her home; and failing, they shot him to death. This is a case in which a colored man died to save the honor of his home to protect a virtuous woman from violence. So this the punishment meted to like transgressors of our own race?. To the credit of the citizens of Winchester, it must be said that they promptly united in their efforts to have red-handed murder punished according to it deserts. The presiding judge gave approbation to the sentence by refusing a motion for a new hearing. It is a good omen of the social status of the race, when concertedly they array themselves upon the side of protection to virtue and love of home. It will be an omen of greater good to humanity when protection to woman is everywhere guaranteed, regardless of caste spirit, condition of birth, or other outward circumstances. May the day speedily come when uniform justice will be dealt to evil doers sentence being based wholly upon the guilt of the offender without regard to circumstances of his color, or conditions or the color or conditions of the persons offended. The Democrat, Wednesday, December 7, 1892.

One of the pardons granted during the last days of Gov. Brown’s administration was to Henry Whitt who had served a few years of a twenty-one years sentence imposed on him by a Clark county jury for murder. The murder was a most unprovoked one without any mitigating circumstances and many people thought at the time he should have been hung. He was a tobacco tenant and along with several others he came to town one night and got drunk, while on their way to or from a house of prostitution, they met Charles Anderson, a highly respected colored man and his wife, near where the C. and O. trestle crosses Maple street. Anderson tried to avoid a difficulty, but in trying to protect his wife from their drunken advances he was shot and instantly killed. The sentence was hardly commensurate with the crime and executive clemency was misplaced.

In the supreme Court at Nashville, Tenn., the final entry was made last week in a lawsuit in which Dr. Washington Miller and his wife, Susan A. Miller, of this city, were the plaintiffs. The Nashville American gives the following particulars: “A deed from the Supreme Clerk, Joe J. Roach, to Mrs. Susan A. Miller, was registered Tuesday, transferring 1,626 acres of land in the Twenty-fifth District for $65,640. “The property is the old estate of Geo. Anderson who died about thirty years ago. It is rich land located in Bell’s Bend on the Cumberland river. After the death of Mr. Anderson the property was tied up by litigation and sold under a decree in the cause of Washington Miller and wife, Susan A. vs. Joseph Clees et al.

The Winchester Sun Tues., 4-7-1914 Anderson, infant son The Winchester Sun Tues., 2-6-1923 Anderson, Isaac (Ike) Ike Anderson and family live on the Ruckerville pike a few miles from town. He has long been known as a shiftless, worthless kind of man with weakness for drinking whisky, but with no especial harm in him. Family quarrels have been frequent and the sequel of one of these is that the father’s life is ebbing away from a death wound in his breast, his son is an occupant of the county jail, his hands stained with his father’s blood, and the mother strongly suspected of being an accessory to the crime. It appears that on Saturday evening the old man picked up a bucket and started out for some purpose, when his son Henry interfered and a previous quarrel was renewed, the wife taking her son’s part. In the midst of the dispute Henry stepped into the house and got a shotgun and fired the contents into the father, who was standing a few feet below him. The load entered the upper part of the chest breaking the collarbone and lodging in the left lung, inflicting a wound that will inevitably end in death. The murderer, who is but nineteen years old, left at once, but was arrested Monday by sheriff Farney, who found him near the edge of Powell county. He says the shooting was accidental and that he had procured the gun for the purpose of going rabbit hunting and was adjusting a cap on the gun when it was discharged. This is not in accord with the declaration of his father who says it was fired on purpose. The Democrat, Wednesday, February 12, 1890.

Some weeks ago during the progress of a family quarrel, Isaac Anderson was shot by his nineteen-year-old son, Henry, the load of shot entering his lung. He lingered for some time, but died last week. The boy had been arrested, but was released on his own recognizance. Upon the death of his father, however, he was again arrested, and on his trial Saturday was held over without bail to await the action of the Circuit Court. At the preliminary trial the members swore that the shooting was accidental, but the old man’s dying declaration was that it was purposely done. The Democrat, Wednesday, March 12, 1890.

Henry Anderson who shot and killed his father, Ike Anderson, some time ago was tried Wednesday, the trial resulting in a hung jury. The case was set for trial again today. The Democrat, Wednesday, May 16, 1890

CIRCUIT COURT Circuit Court adjourned Saturday after two weeks arduous labor. The case of Henry Anderson, for the murder of his father, Ike Anderson, which resulted in a hung jury Wednesday and which was set for Friday, was postponed until next term, and Anderson was released on $150 bond. The Democrat, Wednesday, May 21, 1890

Henry Anderson was tried for the murder of his father, and acquitted under peremptory instructions from Judge Morton. He seemed scarcely to comprehend that he was being tried for his life, and was very impatient to get back to his farm work. The old man was shot by a gun in the hands of Henry directly after a furious family quarrel, but the latter claimed it was accidental and there was no proof to the contrary.

OBITUARY Died—Nov. 8th 1889, at her home near Winchester, Ky., Mrs. Elizabeth Anderson, wife of Rev. Jesse Anderson, deceased, aged seventy-one years. A well-spent life is ended; a servant of many years has received her hire. In early life she gave her heart to her Savior and was soon afterwards married to Rev. Jesse Anderson, and for almost half a century she shared with him in his sorrows and rejoiced with him in his honors as he labored in the Cumberland Presbyterian Church, a faithful minister of God. Her character showed brightest in her domestic relations; her aspirations were to make her family happy. “She looked well to the ways of her household and the heart of her husband did safely trust in her.” Providence left her childless, yet with maternal care she reared an adopted daughter, who mourns her loss most deeply. Her charity to the poor never failed, and the beggar turned out hungry from her door. At the sunset of life she had no vain regrets, and so bright was the attraction of the other shore that she sometimes grew impatient for the summons to go home, and as she wished the messenger delayed not. She was permitted to go almost without a pain. Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints.

For quite a while we kept a head line standing “Another Killing at Mt. Sterling,” and very frequently was it called into use.

In addition to the killing of one policeman and the narrow escape of another by a negro, who was also shot, an account of which we gave in our last, there were several others about the first of the week. About the same hour Saturday night that Policeman Evans was killed, Henry Whitaker met Newt. Anderson, an eighteen-year-old boy, in the road, in the eastern part of the county, and after a few words shot and killed him. Whittaker walked to Mt. Sterling and gave himself up. There were no witnesses to the murder, but Whittaker says he had heard that Anderson had threatened to kill him. The Winchester Democrat Friday, June 21, 1895.

HENRY WHITTAKER, tried in an examing court at Owingsville for the murder of Newton Anderson in the Southern part of Menifee county a few days ago, was held over to the Circuit Court without bail.

A few nights ago a Mr. Arnold jumped from the late night express as it passed Morgan Station, and was killed by being struck on the head by a telegraph pole. The train does not stop at this station, and the man jumped while it was running at the rate of 40 miles an hour. About four weeks ago a negro girl boarded the train at Hutchinson Station to come to Kenney. She had never been on a train before. The brakeman, as usual, cried out, before reaching the station, “All out for Kenney,” and the girl, who was standing near the door, rushed out and jumped off while the train was going at very rapid speed. She feel down an embankment, cracked her skull, and was otherwise injured, but has never been unconscious. Of course both parties’ relatives will want damages from the road, although the employees were in no way responsible for their injuries, and you will find juries that will give damages just because the suits are against a railroad.—Paris Kentuckian-Citizen The Winchester Democrat Friday, March 5, 1897 Arnold, W.

Grant A Prominent Young Doctor. The Owensboro Inquirer recently issued a very handsomely illustrated number. The familiar face of Dr. Grant Artis occupies a prominent place. Dr. Artis is one of Winchester’s young men of whom she is justly proud. Handsome, cultured, generous to fault, he is the friend to the rich and poor alike, and is popular with all classes and ages and with both sexes. The inquirer says of him: “A young physician who gives promise of a brilliant future is Dr. Artis, whose office is on Fourth street east of Redericks, and whose face is among those who which adorn this page, is a native of Winchester, Ky., having been born in that town in 1867, where after fortifying himself with a liberal education at the Winchester High School, entered the Kentucky University at Lexington, taking a two year course, from 1884 to 1886. He then commenced to studying under the preceptorship of an able physician, and going to Cincinnati, entered the medical College of Ohio, from which institution he graduated in 1890. He then came to Owensboro and commenced the general practice of medicine, since which time he has been eminently successful as a physician. Wishing to keep step with the progressive age he went to New York in 1895 and took a post-graduate course, and strictly adhered to the hospital and clinics during his stay. Since his return to Owensboro he has been honored with the appointment to the office of city physician for two successive terms, and is at present the Secretary of the Owensboro Board of Health. He is a special pension examiner for the U. S. government. He is a member of the Kentucky State Medical Society; also of the Owensboro Medical Society, and has the qualifications to make a thorough and competent physician, among his many friends he is spoken of as a young professional man with a most promising future.

John Ashby, an ex-policeman, and a crowd of friends were drinking, and wanted to dance in the saloon of J. M. Heaverin & Son, but young Jack Heaverin, who runs a grocery in the same building told them as it was Sunday he wanted no noise. Later Ashby stepped from behind a tree and attempted to strike Eugene Heaverin. He ran into the house and told his brother Jack that a gang was after him and they must act. They met two policemen at the door and asked protection. Ashby came up with his gang at his back, and when Jack Heaverin asked him what they wanted, he drew his revolver and began firing. Immediately there were seven pistols drawn and a regular fusillade followed. Jack Heaverin and Ashby both fell to the floor mortally wounded. They were only six feet away from each other. Nineteen shots were fired. Officer Stuart received one ball in the leg. Ashby was shot once in the right breast, the ball piercing his lungs, and has been given up to die.

Order Book 10; P. 78; November Court 1858 Ashley, John AA A Sunday killing Sunday afternoon at a well known negro resort on Tin Can Alley, John Ashley, a negro man, aged twenty-three years, was cut in the neck by Charlie Martin, a white man, aged about twenty-one years. Ashley was so badly hurt that he died in a few moments. Martin was arrested and lodged in jail. He claims that Ashley cut him first and that he acted in self defense. The negro woman in the case, Pearl Wheeler, is on of the most notorious women in the city, and a few years ago her throat was cut in a fight, and it was thought she would die, but she recovered. Although a young man, Ashley was known as a “bad nigger” and had already served two terms in the penitentiary. Martin is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Carter Martin, who moved from this city to Bourbon county a year or two ago. As the Grand jury is in session it is probable that no examining trial will be held, but the matter will go at once before that body for consideration. Coroner Nunnelley summoned a jury Monday morning. The body was viewed and the inquest was adjourned until the afternoon. The Winchester Democrat Tuesday, December 6, 1910

The Winchester Democrat Tuesday, January 25, 1898 Atkinson, John Some marked peculiarities appear in connection with the drowning of persons in the Kentucky river from Boonesborough up to the Mouth of Red river. The drowning at Ford last week brings forth these remarks. From the settlement of this locality, 1775 to about 1885, a period of eighty years, it is believed nobody was drowned. About the latter year Capt. Turnbull, of Winchester was drowned at the mouth of Bear Run. Probably three years later, Pen Coe, another Clark county man was drowned just below the mouth of Four Mile. In 1882, a dozen negro men and a white woman were washed out of a railroad camp on Two Mile creek into the river and drowned near Ford during a sudden rise. A few years later, several boys from Clark were drowned at the Mouth of Upper Howard’s creek. Since that time the number of drownings especially at Ford, have been too great to be recalled, but perhaps every instance except that of John Sewell, several years ago and the boy East a year ago and a colored boy the past Spring that were from Clark. Thus it spans that for nearly a century and a quarter only four or five Madison county people have been drowned along about fifteen miles of river and those within the brief period of less than six years, while Clark has been unfortunate for nearly forty years and the extent of dozens. But our Madison people on the North side never had any great love for water except for farming purposes.—Richmond Register. This is only a partial list of those drowned near Ford is even the last generation: Rufus Emerson was drowned at Boonesboro; a man named Tillet near the Mouth of Otter Creek; John Atkinson some where near the same place; two sons of Commodore Richardson at the mouth of Two Mile, and a negro boy in the big eddy above the Mouth of Four Mile. Zach Hukill drowned himself on account of ill health near Riverside; Bennie Butler was drowned in Two Mile creek and his body was afterward found in the river. Quite a number of other drownings have occurred, the names of the victims having escaped our memory. The Winchester Democrat Friday, July 2, 1897 Atkinson, Marion E.

The Winchester Sun Mon., 8-3, 8-4-1992 Averitt, William H. Desperate Shooting Affray At Stanton A special from Stanton gives the following particular of a desperate shooting affray that took place there Saturday. William H. Averitt, Prosecuting Attorney of Trimble County was shot and terribly mangled by Robert Hardwick, who was fatally wounded a moment later by Asa Pettit, a friend of the murdered lawyer. An enmity had existed between Hardwick and Averitt for some time. It dates back to the last May term of court in Trimble County, when paternity proceedings were instituted against John Hardwick, an uncle of Robert Hardwick. Young Averitt had charge of the prosecution of the case, and on account of his vigor in handling the case the enmity of the Hardwicks was aroused and numerous threats against Averitt have been made by the Hardwicks and their friends. The final scene was enacted on the streets of Stanton Saturday. Young Averitt accompanied by Asa Petit, had just entered the store kept by the gentleman. The two lighted cigars and walked out of the store. Just across the street on the corner is a store kept by Robert Hardwick. The prosecutor was standing in his door when Averitt and Pettit walked out. He saw them and cried: “Averitt, we had better settle our differences now. There is no time like the present, and I am ready. You have got to fight and immediately at that. Come across and settle it.” Averitt refused to cross the street, and remained on the platform in front of the store. Will Hardwick was in the Hardwick store, and at this point grabbed a Winchester and shot Averitt, the ball grazing his ear. Averitt ran his hand under his belt for his revolver, but before he could get it out Robert Hardwick seized a shotgun and fired. The load of buckshot took effect in Averitt’s neck and breast almost tearing his head from his body. He died instantly. The Hardwicks then commenced firing at Asa Pettit, who come to his friend’s defense, but failed to hit him, although one bullet passed through his hat. Pettit seeing that things were getting warm grabbed his Winchester and

111 opened fire on the Hardwicks. A rapid exchange of shots ensued and when the smoke of battle had cleared away Robert Hardwick had received a Winchester shot through the left lung. A rush was made to the spot and men were disarmed by friends. More trouble is feared as the friends of Averitt say that he was killed in cold blood. Averitt was 27 years of age and unmarried.
