JIM: Christmas Eve: Leatherwood Creek, Nell, Adair Co., Ky 1869


(First posted too late - 2010-12-26 06:08:42 - and posted a few days early this year. It's a dandy from Paul Revere, channeled through JIM): Ladies and gentlemen: ]This Christmas Eve story, replete with timeless Adair County characters and memories of the Village of Nell-upon-Leatherwood Creek, Adair Co., KY, circa 1869: Including Dr. Taylor, the Bell Bros., John and Joe; Joe Walkup and his bachelor brother Junius; the prince of good men, William L. Walker; Brud and Leroy Walker; Dallas Estes, John D. Kinnaird. A good time was had by all, too numerous to list, with 28 of the 27 present in 1869 getting drunk, according to Paul Revere, one of the celebrants. Today such goings on in Leatherwood rarely happen, as the contemporary community is nigh as righteous as Gradyville, (Nell's triplet city, along with Weed, KY) though it obviously would fall short of the sanctity standard in Jim's beloved homeland, Sacred Triangle of Sano, Esto, and Ono. -CM

By "Jim"

In 1898, Mr. Joseph (J.A.) Turner, a longtime resident of Metcalfe County, returned to his native Adair County for the space of a few months. For a number of years, his writing had appeared in the Edmonton and Glasgow newspapers under the cognomen Paul Revere. During that brief sojourn to the Auld Sod in1898, he continued dispensing, via the Adair County News, his own puckish brand of wit, wisdom, and humor, frequently (quite tongue in cheek) bemoaning his fate as the husband of the red-haired woman. Or, as he so eloquently poker-faced in another letter, "I finally found, wooed, and won the heart and hand of the red-haired woman, who has spared no pains in trying to elevate me to the same plane with herself."

The following, excerpted from his letter published in the July 20, 1898
News, starts as a reverie about the Nell community but segues into an offbeat tale of his Christmas Eve adventures up Leatherwood Creek, circa 1869.

Agrees with comments on hospital, but not with presentation

Comments re article 48835 Editorial Adair Co finds Adair Co solution to Adair Co challengeJon Haley writes:While I agree with pith of your comments, I do have to question the overall tone regarding Spectrum.
  1. Had it not been for Spectrum it appears that there would not be a Westlake to save.
  2. As you aptly pointed out, the life ring tossed to the drowning victim may not prove adequate. A search for a buyer or partner is an expensive undertaking and while it is regrettable that dear resources will be spent on this effort, given the circumstances it seems to be necessary if Adair county wants the best of all possible chances to save this community asset.
The general tone of the article regarding Spectrum has a touch of that recently discovered disease Gingrich-itis: Truth at the base but wanting in presentation. -JON HALSEY, Knifley, KYThanks Judge Melton had already contact us about the omission of credit for Spectrum you note in comment No. 1, above. We've included her comments in the editorial since. -EW

Editorial: Adair Co. finds Adair Co. solution to Adair Co. challenge

Chicken Little appears wrong. Again. Adair Fiscal Court meets daunting challenges to save Westlake Regional Hospital, keep critical medical services going, maintain viability of $9.152 million dollar local payroll, and prevent possible LENDER ordered additional tax should hospital fail. First impression: Big winners Bipartisanship, putting Adair County needs ahead of politics. People of Adair County, Adair Fiscal Court, CJE Ann Melton and with the support of former Judge Executive Richard L. Walker, working together with local banks, and with support of Adair County medical leaders Dr. Chuck Giles and Dr. James T. Bergen. A Bit of Egg on Face: Spectrum Health Partners, who appear to have underestimated local will, local expertise, Adair County's "family" response to the impending threat to our community family. Action puts into question wisdom of allowing same firm, Spectrum, hired to save the hospital, to, at the same time, work against itself, and earn up to $250,000 (real money which ought to go to balancing the hospital budget) in a lucrative contract to facilitate selling it. Several Adair County brokers could do that job, and at least keep that money at home. - ED WAGGENER
More from the December 13, 2011 Adair Fiscal Court later

By Ed Waggener

In last night's Adair Fiscal Court meeting, the Court voted unanimously to approve a $1.7 million bond issue to give interim financing necessary to stabilize the finances of Westlake Regional Hospital in 2012 and to meet technology goals which is likely to mean a turnaround of several million dollars in the next few years.

The action, endorsed by former Adair County Judge Executive Richard L. Walker and recommended current CJE Ann Melton, was unanimous following a motion by Seventh District Magistrate Billy Rowe, with a second by Third District Magistrate Sammie Baker, with the other five magistrates, Harold Burton (1), Daryl Flatt (2), Perry Reeder (4), Billy Dean Coffey (5), and Joe Rogers (6).

The hospital is not fully saved yet, but a major turning point may have been reached in a local decision take necessary steps to save it from sale, closure, or bankruptcy.
