The Old Whitley House

several papers nave recently print
ed descriptive article written by So
pima Garnett Scott, OF the old Whitley
house-the first brick house built in
kentucky-which is located almost two
miles west OF Grab Orchard this coun-
ty. The article says:
About mile and a half from Crab
Orchard, in Lincoln county, stands the
oldest brick house in Kentucky. 1t was
built by Col. William Whitley in 1888.
Col. Whitley was one OF the first set
tiers OF the State and an old Indian
fighter The brick and other material
was hauled over the Cumberland noun
tains from Virginia.
The house is very quantity built and
ornamented win many fine carvings,
and is splendid state of preserva-
tion. 1t is a two and half story
building and on each end glazed black
brick are arranged To form diamonds,
which adds much to its appearance. The
windows are seven feet from the floor
as protection against Indians. The
inmates were thus hidden from view
from the outside The timber in the
house was sawed by hand and the sills,
ratters etc, are very massive, quite
enough for two or three houses as they
are built today. The doors are made
of two layers Of this heavy mate.ia,,
put on frame diagonally and almost
entirely covered with heavy iron spikes.
You first enter the large hallway,
the stairway of which contains Is steps
to the first landing. upon which is
carved on the end OF each an eagles
head The Is steps represent the Is
stares of Our Colonial times and the
eagle typifies our country
On the loft of this hall is the parlor
room the mantelpiece of which is very
tall with Is "S's' carved above, also
representing the Is states. To the right
OF the hall is the family living room.
which contains a large. foomy press IN
the wall extending from floor to the
ceiling The third story of the house
was used Tor a ballroom. The wood
work of each room in the house is
carved.
Beneath .he house is an immense
cellar the full size OF the house. used
in an emergency as a retreat in case
of surprise by the Indians. The
cellar was loop-holed, as was the top
story OF the house.
