From the New Lexington Tribune we
learn that Mr.. Colborn is at work gath
ering facts for his forthcoming History
of Perry County. We wish Mr.. Col
born success in this undertaking; but
we must say that if he can unearth any
thing in Perry county history of sufi-
cient importance to warrant its~publiea-
ton in book form, he can beat any or all
of the old residenters with whom we
have ever had any conversation about
"early times" We greatly fear that the
annals of the county cannot even boast
respectable" bear or panther fight; and
that, aside from the County Seat fight,
and the Hippodrome War at Somerset,
Perry county hasn't any history that is
worth--well, at all events, that would
greatly interest the present generation OF
its inhabitants.
