most prosperous city in Kentucky.
In almost every line, young men
are at the helm and with zeal, en-
thusiasm and boundless energy are
making for themselves places in the
busy commercial life of the one city
in all Kentucky that is looked to by
all other cities as their criterion in
progress, law enforcement and good
government, In this class stands
Leslie p Pool, andShis business career
has been series of advancements
from modest beginning to posi-
ton of prominence and influence in
business. He comes from old Scotch
ancestry. His grandfather was the
late Esquire James M. P'Pool. who
came to this county from Virginia in
1885, and worked his way to success
and prominence. He settled in the
western part of the county, near
cambridge, and during his long life
filled many positions of honor and
trust. For many years he was a
justice of the peace and was an in
fluential Democrat and was promi-
nent in church affairs and leader
in all public movements. He reared
large family of children and his
sons, like their father, became men
of standing and influence. Wiley A.
P'Pool, one of the older sons, was in
the mercantile business at cambridge
when young man. 1t was while
his parents were living at that place
that the subject of this sketch was
born Nov. 20, 1875. His childhood
was spent on farm, for few years,
until his father removed to this city |
in 1882, the year of the big fire. For |
more than 80 years Mr.. P'Pool has |
lived in Hopkinsville.
1t is not out of the way in passing
to explain the popularity in the
spelling of the name P'Pool. Orig
inally the name was spelled Petty
pool. in Scotland, but just as the
prefix Mac was abbreviated into Nc |
the first part of the name Pool was
dropped and came to be represented |
by the present form Of the name. In |
pronouncing the name, the extra
letter is ignored and It is pronounced |
the same as the names Pool and Poole,
which are quite common in this Sec
ton of the state. So far as known,
these branches are not closely relat-
ed to the branch of the family of
which Leslie P'Pool is a representa-
tive,
As boy, Leslie attended the pub
lie schools of Hopkinsville before the
course included the high school and
later continued his studies in South
Kentucky College and in Maj. J.O.
FerrelPs High School. Subsequent
ly he took a business course in
school at Nashville and started in
business by buying out the hardware
store of A. j. Meador in 1905. He
continued in the hardware business
with his father until 1912. but for
two years lived in Chattanooga,
Tenn, where he had an interest in
the c. M. P'Pool Hardware Co., of
that city. But all the time his
thoughts were turning back to THE
Old Kentucky Home" and early in
the year 1914 he made two import
ant moves. both destined to be
turning points in his career.
