Mrs. Mary Jenkins Of Eddy
vile. Kentucky, who has been
the guest of her step-son S. Nj.
Jenkins. since the holidays. left
Thursday afternoon for her
home. Mrs. Jenkins entered
her eightieth year Christmas
day, but Notwithstanding her
age is as well preserved as many
women who are quarter of a
century her Juniors.
Members of the family were
willing to accompany her on her
journey but she said it was I'M
necessary and that she could
travel alone.
In many respects she is a most
remarkable woman and is one
of the only remaining links con-
Meeting today with the Mexican
and Civil war days of slaves
and stage coaches. She is a
sister-in-law of that Chittenden
Lyon for whom Lyon county was
named and who entertained in
his home in Eddyville one
hundred ago Aaron Burr, that
dreamer Of a great western en-
pire of which he wished to be
the ruler. She herself entertain

years ago, in her own home,
John Robinson, the now million
are Snowman and his young wife,
when he was travelling overland,
long before the day of railroads
in this section. She has a most
wonderful memory, reciting in
cidents OF the Mexican war
period over 65 years ago as if
they occurred yesterday. She
has an album in which are in
scribed the autographs and poems
of many of the beaus of the
forties, the writing of which is
wonderfully we'll preserved altho,
written almost seventy years
ago and those who inscribed the
verses have with out exception
long since.ceased to be actors on
the worlds stage, all having
crossed the dark river, some fifty
years ago. Her reminsesces of
the war between the states"
are rich and realistic. Her exper.
ences in those stirring times
would have furnished a foundat-
ion for as good a romance as was
ever written. She has one memento
which is not very pleasant to
think of in the shape of a draft
for SO, drawn by her hus-
bands commission merchant in
Memphis, Tennessee, soon after
the war, on Watts Givens and

bankers who failed before the

Brilliant and N erited Enlogium on

On Washingtons birthday,
Feb. 22nd, 1911, at Louisville
while addressing the Jefferson

The Father of His Country"
and to some prominent Kentuck-
ians foremost among them as
usual being Congressman James
of this city.
The browning tribute" said
Mr.. Helm, comes from our
Motherland in a published letter
from Glandstone, her great

ing in casual conversation that

ately that if, among all the

tom
In the course of his address
the speaker made complimentary
mention of Representatives in
Congress from Kentucky, men,
tioning by name Congressman
Swagar, Sherley, Owsley. STAN
ley and Ollie NJ. James.
John G. Carlisle possessed a
powerful analytical mind and was
an eloquent and able debater, -
said he. Kentucky has pro-
duced a worthy successor to him
in all those splendid powers in
the person Of YOUR Representa-
tive in Congress. Swagar Sherley.
Every Democrat You are sending
to Congress is a man of integrity
and ability. Ousley Stanley has
the mind Of the poet, the philos-
opher and the sage, and he is
witty and eloquent to a mark ed
degree.
There is another Kentuckian
whose grasp of governmental
problems and whose superb
power to grasp them is without
equal in public life today. He
has the intuition of Bib, the
logic of Carlisle. the patriotism
of Beck and the eloquence of
Clay Every throb of his big
heart beats loyal to the masses.
No power of man or devils can
intimidate him and no amount of
gold can buy him. He is the
ablest and most fearless champ
ion Of popular rights in America
today. He is the idol of the
Democracy in the House of Rep
r1sentatives and the most power
full debater in Congress. On
this day, when we honor the
bith-time of one who loved and
served his country, | lay this
tribute upon the brow of Ollie
N. James of Kentucky"

wildly the day the L. S. Gun
boats bombarded Eddyville with
canHonball and shell when all the
women. children, and negroes,
the men were in the Southern
army, took refuge beyond the
range of hills in front Of which
that town nestles so beautifully
on the Cumberland. She has
the distinction of having had a
brother-in-law, Chittenden Lyon
conspicous in the war of 1872, a
husband who fought on the u.
S. ship, Legare, in the Mexican
war in 1916, nephew, Capt.
Frank Crazy of GAINESVILLE Tenn
essee, who organized "CObbs
Battery" and fought with dis
tinctiOn in the war of 1862 and
a grand nephew, Lieutenant
Crazy Childers of GAINESVILLE,
who led his company to the
PHILIPPINE Islands in the war
with Spain. She therefore has
members Of her family in every
war of the past century.
She is also thankful that she
has an old colored woman, still
ready to answer her call, who
belonged to the family before
the war. She is a member OF
the Methodist church and rarely
misses a church or prayer meet
ing service. Her example in
that respect being one worthy O f
emulation by the younger gen.

living, that being E. S. Wood
who owns a RIGA plantation in
southern Louisiana.
