When the last of the six rounds was

he did with Moran. You can see the

see what might otherwise be considered

Will you give space in the columns
of your interesting paper for aconcise
history of a once thriving village, but
now nearly obliterated. *
A short distance from where re-
side can be seen the remains Of Meats
vile, which for many years was a
fiourishing and important village.
About 1909 my grandfather, Rudolph
Neat, erected mill on Green river,
with which he ground wheat and corn,
and hadsa saw attached that supplied
the, people with lumber-all done by
water power. Soon thereafter. few
houses were built and dry goods
store established. Population began
to increase to such an extent that in a
short time other business enterprises
were started. The town at one time
had three dry goods houses, a saloon,
cabinet shop, carding machine, sad
dlery shop and a hotel. Besides all
these, boat yard, where fat bottom
boats were made and loaded with to-
bacco, shipped to New Orleans. One
of the first merchants of Neatsville
was Fautley R. Kinnaird, a relative
OF the late VIM, L. Walker, of Leath-
erwood. Surrounded by rich land
and cultivated by intelligent farmers,
Neatsville had phenomenal growth
for many years. But the turbulent
waters Of Green river have made such
inroadSon the town that only few
HOUSES remain, to mark the place,
where many years ago, prosperous
small town existed.
1t was the invariable custom of those
days to have barbecue every year at
NeatSville. ltsa,- -
At one of those barbecueS a very
, amusing incident took place. An i'm,
mense number of people had assem-
bled, many of whom came from Lin
coin and Boyle counties. When din
; ner was announced many of those

But although old Neatsyille is il
ruins, another village is being built Of

rival the one destroyed. There is on
