Around The Shire, mid-October 1931 Ninety years ago this mid-October 2021, the second anniversary of Black Tuesday loomed large on the near event horizon. America mourned the death of Thomas Alva Edison, and for the second year in a row, The St. Louis Cardinals defeated the Philadelphia Athletics in the World Series. But meanwhile, back in the Shire... By JIM Half a dozen or so Adair Countians were matriculated at the University of Kentucky, the cadre including Omar Alden (better known as O.A.) Durham and Effie Sandusky. After an initial misidentification, remains found in Taylor county a few days earlier were identified as those of Ray Corbin, a young man who resided in the Plum Point section. An inquest jury ruled he had been "slain by persons unknown," but by press time an arrest had been made, after a man named Childress attempted to obtain a bill of sale for Corbin's automobile. American Legion Post 99, with Rollin Cundiff the newly elected Commander, announced plans for the coming years, most notably "the placing of a white way around Columbia's public square." That is, putting eight street lights around the square, one in each corner and one at each of the four intersections, thus making "every inch of the business section of Columbia bright and attractive looking after dark." In Cane Valley, the first frost of the season had come a-calling, and a just-closed revival at the Christian Church yielded 15 additions to the church, one of the number being young Miss Randolph Hood. The Russell Creek correspondent reported "a large crowd and nice behavior and lots of pies sold" at Rocky Hill School House.
