Missing In Action Jon Halsey writes: Seems like at least a perfunctory comment would have been included in today's edition remarking on the missing column's of two of Sunday's most widely read weekly contributors - Tom Chaney and Chuck Hinman. I understand Chuck is experiencing serious problems but previous columns from both writers have been substituted in the past or a note was injected explaining that their column was not available for publication that week. Jon HalseyKnifley --JonThanks. And apologies. The columns are being posted a bit later. EW 2011-11-06 18:50:54 | Comments | Printable version

Jim artickle raises question on High No. of post offices The artickle on Sunday with CM, November 6, 2011, JIM: The Great School Day Rally, 1914 which tallied the number of Adair County School Districts at one time at 80, raises the issue in the heads of all those with nine year old minds addicted to nuggets of information: Just how many Post Offices did Adair County have at the peak?

Mike Watson writes of 3rd Adair 'Medal of Honor' winner Strictly speaking, Adair County native George Hector Burton didn't receive the Congressional Medal of Honor. But the Confederate Warrior named to the equivalent Southern military list, the Roll of Honor. Still, it is a noteworthy honor, especially as Veterans Day 2011 approaches, that two of the 57 Medal of Honor recipients from Kentucky are Adair County natives: Sgt. Dakota Meyer and Brig. Gen. James Alexander Williamson, and that this third native son, George Hector Burton, received an equivalent CSA military honor. George Hector Burton became a minister after the war, and returned from his post Civil War home in South Carolina to Adair County to preach, at Fairplay, on at least one occasion. By Mike Watson Burton, George Hector, born 10 July 1839 in Columbia, Adair County, Kentucky, a son of Joseph Burton and Mary Owen Burton, died 2 February 1922 in South Carolina, with burial in Bethany Baptist Church Cemetery, McCormick, SC. He was long a resident of Troy, SC. Article continues... click title or click here to read whole article. 2011-11-06 07:23:32 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Mike Watson - History

Rev. Joey N. Welsh: Good Ship Lollipop and the Titanic Another Angle, the occasional musings of a Kentucky Pastor: Good Ship Lollipop and the Titanic first printed 6 November 2005 in the Hart County Herald The next earlier Another Angle: Rev. Joey N. Welsh: Of Spooks and Saints By The Rev. Joey N. Welsh The Good Ship Lollipop and the steamer Titanic don't usually appear together in popular thought, but recent history shows that the pairing was a super combination, perhaps unlikely, but still super. Toward the end of the summer I read about the death of California businessman Charles Black. Black, 86, had led a fascinating life. Receiving his bachelor's and master's degrees in business from Stanford University, he had also studied at Harvard. During World War II he had completed over 100 PT-boat missions, had done work as a scout behind Japanese lines in Indonesia, and he had received several decorations for valor, including the Silver Star.
