OLD BADRACK: All here but O.D.



2005-12-12 - Reed ST, Columbia, Adair CO, KY - Photo Ed Waggener. The panel which sighted Old Badrack going down Reed ST at 9:30 a.m.,, Friday, December 9, 2005, is all here except for the main man, O.D. Frazier. That's David Martin, left; Robert Harmon with his back to camera, and Boby Caldwell, right. O.D. Frazier had the seat Robert Hamon is occupying, and would have had the best seat in the house for deer viewing. It was also best for being out the door to watch the deer's progress. That's the red brick City Hall and Municipal Parking Lot out the window, looking toward the Square.

Cyrus/Jamestown Street Conflagration, 1941

In Martha Barnes Martin's excellent "Memories of Jamestown Street Neighborhood" she mentioned the loss by fire of the Jamestown Street residence of the Williams sisters, Misses Martha Susan (better known as Mattie) and Maranda.

An article in the March 12, 1941 Adair County news stated that the conflagration occurred at "an early hour Friday morning," March 7. The flue had burned out about four o'clock Thursday afternoon, "but it was thought that no damage had been done." The speculation after the fact was that "the flue must have been cracked when it burned out in the afternoon, later causing the fire."
