terprising and beautiful city Of Mt
Sterling. In paying tribute to our city
her various interests, her institution:
and men of affairs, we are as a matter
of fact, led to present a sketch of g
gentleman, whose activity in profes
sional and business life has brought
him State wide prominence and re
fected great credit to his home town
this section Of the State, The gentle
man to whom we are pleased to re-
fer is Judge H. Clay Mckee, of this
city. an honored member of the legal
profession, and an energetic factor in
the business growth of our city.
He is a lawyer of practical exper
fence and broad knowlege.
He also is engaged in a large and
lucrative insurance business, being
agent for several large companies, also
is a progressive real estate agent, aud
an all around hustler
BY constant application and energy,
Judge Mckee has accomplished great
results in all his undertakings and has
high standing In our community. He
was born in this county in 1851, lived
on the farm until manhood, was edu-
Gated in the common schools and then
began life of energy and usefulness
after having left the farm to take up
| his professional pursuits in our city.
He studied law with Hon. Thomas
Turner and studied diligently to master
his profession.
Recognizing his ability and useful
ness in public affairs he has been
favored as Judge of the City Court, and
legal representative of our munich
pality the duties of which he performed
functorially.
In all his professional and public
life Judge Mckee has never shirked
a duty or a responsibility and his
record has been one of exceptional
ability and usefu'ne with a notable
degree Of conscientious devotion to bus
mess and professional effort.
In fact, the Judge is a most valued
citizen to our city and is by natural
endowment and thorough business
training admirably equipped for any
position of public trust and the able
style in which he has carried forward
his public and professional duties has
gained him a host of substantial
friends and supporters.
Aside from being a man of high
standing in this section, he is also
representative and influential business
citizen, standing ever ready to aid in
the advancement of his home city and
section.
In connection with Judge McKee's
several interests in this city We are
led to state that he is associated in
all his business interests with his
sons conducting also a successful bus
mess enterprise, known as H. Cay
Mckee and Sons, who deal exclusively
in high class autos and but recently
erected a handsome brick and stone
garage, large and spacious and conven-
iently arranged. To his sons, Neve
Trimble and Walter Reid Mckee, is en-
trusted the management Of this bust
ness enterprise, and it is in safe hands
to say the least, for both young gen.
tlemen have achieved success as bus
mess factors in this community.
They formerly conducted a grocery
store in Mt. Sterling when but young
sters and made a brilliant record for
themselves in the business world. 1t
has been the subject of considerable
favorable comment, the extraordinary
business acumen and energy with
which these two young men are en-
dowed and seldom has there been two
young men with such business capac-
ity ar such an early age.
Neve and Walter inherit, of course
much of their snap and business judg-
ment from their hustling parent, Judge
Mckee, and generously provided in the
leading schools they are splendidly
equipped for the struggles of a most
strenuous business life. Highly cul-
tured and standing high in business
and social circles, they are the pride
and honor of our community and have
most brilliant future indeed.
The firm of H. Clay Mckee & Sons
are agents for the White Steam and
gasoline cars and are meeting with
great success in placing them upon
the market here. They also provide
for the care and storage Of autos and
rent cars to the public.
1t is a splendid enterprise, filling a
long felt want, and is ably managed
by the young members Of the firm, who
are attentive to their business, cour-
teous and obligng to the trade and
young gentlemen of fine personality
and good repute.
