One Century Ago in Adair County One hundred years ago in the pages of the Adair County News, 23 September 1924. By Mike Watson Mike says, 'I render this one to ColumbiaMagazine in honor of my cousin, friend, and fellow researcher-of-all-things-old, "Jim," also known as "Cyrus" and also "Cousin Brother Jim."' Will Take Over the Pike: All arrangements for turning over the pike in Adair County to the State Road Commission have been completed, and the deal will be closed as soon as the papers and cash can reach Frankfort. The Commission agreed to make a State Road out of the pike, provided it was donated and $8,000 in cash. The money was raised in the following manner: The pike in Adair County had to be bought. The Fiscal Court contributed $2,254, there was $1,100 in toll, and $4,646 was contributed by citizens, making the $8,000. The papers and cash were sent to Frankfort Monday by Mr. Gordon Montgomery, County Attorney, and in the next few days the toll gates in this county will be raised. The Pike referred to in this article was the Columbia-to-Campbellsville Pike which had been maintained for half a century by private ownership, and tolls were collected at up to four points along the route. This article refers only to the Columbia to Taylor County line portion of the Pike. The Taylor County end was a separate deal made with the State Road Commission.--MW Article continues... click title or click here to read whole article. 2024-09-23 12:03:13 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Mike Watson - History

Indians win over Monroe County in last minute thriller By Trey Stephens, Staff Writer Adair County High School football defeated Monroe County 36-30 in a last minute thriller Friday night. The Indians came out in impressive fashion and built up a 20-6 halftime lead, but the Falcons would not go away easily and stormed back. Monroe County found themselves with the ball, down 6 with under a minute to go and no timeouts, thanks to a penalty on the Indians, they were set up nicely to take one more shot for the end zone. Fortunately, that chance was intercepted by Adair County, which ended the game.
