Motorists Have Been Given Weeks
Grace by Chief Richmond.

When questioned in regard to the
enforcement of the law against auto
mobile owners who continue to drive
their cars displaying 1913 markers.
Chief E. H. Richmond said that sew
eral owners had been cautioned, and
one had put his car up to await the
markers although he claimed he had
sent for them a week ago
On the first of the year. said the
chief, he had talked the matter over
with Prosecuting Attorney Bugbee, and
everyone seen running without 1914
numbers since that time had been
warned. There were. however. so many
who claimed to have sent for num-
bers, or gave some other excuse, that
it was not deemed advisable to arrest
everyone running under the old mark
ers.
over a week has now elapsed and
Chief Richmond states that there is no
reason why a driver should not have
his 1914 markers, that he is clearly
breaking the law in running with 1918
markers, and beginning today anyone
running under the old numbers will be
quietly told to appear in court and eX-
plain his reasons there, if he can do

Oldest Brick House in Ken
lucky.

About mile and half from Crab Or
chard, in Lincoln county. stands the old
est brick house in Kentucky It. was
built by Col William Whitley in 1888.
Col. Whitley was one of the first settlers
Of the State and an old Indian fighter.
The brick and other material was haul
ed over the Cumberland mountains from
Virginia.
The house is very quantity built and
ornamented with many fine carvings,
and is in a splendid state of preserva-
tion Ii is a two and half story build
ing and on each end glazed black brick
are arranged to form diamonds, which
adds much to its appearance. The win
dows are seven feet from the floor as a
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, rafters, 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 material, put on a frame diagon-
ally and almost entirely covered with
heavy iron spikes.
You first enter the large hallway, the
stairway of which contains ID steps TO
the first landing, upon which is carved
on the end of each an eagles head. The
l3 steps represent the l3 States of our
Colonial times and the eagle typifies our
country.
On the loft of this hall is the parlor
room the mantel-piece of which is very
tall with Is SIS" carved above, also
representing the 10 States. To the right
of the hall is the family living room,
which contains large. roomy press in
the wall, extending from floor TO cell
ing. The third story of the house was
each room in the house is carved.
Beneath the house is an immense Gel
lar the full size of the house. used in an
emergency as retreat in case of sur
prise by the Indians. The cellar was
loop-holed. as was the top story of the
house.
Col. and Mrs. Whitley's initials APP
pear over the front door and are formed
of glazed brick. But in later years a
veranda has been erected and the ini-
tials are not visible
