LATE MRS. PARKER
LEAVES A WILL
Under the Terms Of Which the
Bank Of Hardinsburg and
Trust Company are Executor
and Trustee.

Mrs. Sarah T.. Parker, who died Mar.
4th, 1918, at Louisville, KY, was born
and reared in Breckenridge county on
what is known as the Richard Adkisson
farm. Her father, Winston Lowry, was
a native of Virginia. Her mother, was
Louisiana Helm, and a grand daughter
of Thomas Helm who settled at where
Elizabethtown, KY, now stands. Her
mother married twice. First, John
Roberts, the father of Louis Roberts and
his brother, John. Upon the death of
Mr.. Roberts she then married Winston
Lowry. In 1856 Mr.. Lowry's family
removed to Hancock county. Her
father was one of the largest owners of
land in Breckenridge and Hancock
counties. Mrs. Parker, at her death,
left quite fortune, part of which con-
sisted of about loo acres of land IN
Breckinridge and Hancock counties. A
large part of which in each county lies
on the Ohio river. By the terms of her
will, her grand nephew, Lewis J Perk-
ms, received her lands and four-fif
of her personally.
Her will in one particular was the
most unusual tribute of confidence in
The Bank of Hardinsburg & Trust
Company in its management that probab-
ly has yet been made by anybody to any
Institution. After creating certain
trusts under her will and making the
Bank of Hardinsburg e. Trust Company,
as Trustee and Executor, she uses the
following language:
"If the Bank of Hardinsburg G. Trust
Company should conclude to give up
this business (meaning the Executor
ship and tiusteeship under her will she)
they are to select some honest and reli-
abe party to carry out what is left to
their charge"
In short, she has clothed the Trust
Company with power to name its own
ouNSSoSoi III tLS hiahaSCuiSht VI hSi vast
estate, if the Trust Company should
choose to discontinue its management
thereof.
Mrs. Parker was woman of unusual
strong mentality. Her husband died
many, many years ago, leaving her
childless widow, and during all of these
years and until her death, she has per-
sonally managed the leasing of her farms
and attending to all investments of her
money. She is the last of Winston
Lowry's children. Her memory of
breckenridge county and its associations
in her Young days were cherished by
her to the last as the most delightful of
all memories with her. She was buried
at Greensboro, Ky, by the side of her
husband in Elmwood cemetery on Mar.

THE NEW DAWN IN BRECKENRIDGE!
When I Get to THE End
Of the Way.

NJ life is wearisome journey;
lVI I'm sick with the dust and the heat,
The rays of the sun beat upon me,
The briars wounding my feet,
But the City to which l am journeyiug,
Will more than my trials repay;
All the tolls of the road will seem nothing
When get to the end of the way.
There many hills to climb upward,
| often am longing for rest,
But He who appoints me my pathway
Knows just what is needful and best.
l know in His word He has promised,
That my strength shall be my day.
All the tolls of the road will seem nothing
When I get to the end of the way.
He loves me too well to forsake me,
Or give trial too much
All His people have been dearly purchased,
And Satan never claim such
BY and by shall see Him and praise Him,
In the City of amending day;
And the tolls of the road will seem nothing
When get to the end of the way.
When the last feeble step has been taken,
And the gates of the City appear;
When the beautiful songs of the angels
Float out my listening ear;
When all that now seems so mysterious,
Shall be plain and clear the day,
Then the tolls of the road will seem nothing
AS get to the end of the way.
Though now am footsore and weary,
shall rest when I'm safely at home;
know I'll receive glad welcome,
For the Saviour, Himself, has said "Come.
So when l am weary in body
And sinking in spirit, I'll say,
GAN the tolls of the road will seem nothing
When get to the end of the way
Cooling fountains are there for the thirsty,
There are cordials for those who are faint;
There robes which whittier and purer,
Than any fancy paint
So I'll try to press hopefully onword,
Thinking often through each weary day.
The tolls of the road will seem nothing
When get to to the end of the way.
"Meekly waiting, patient faith,
Bearing her cross SO long,
She has passed in peace to better land,
Where falls no shade of wrong;
Age and pain like garment dropped
Life took up higher strain,
AS the suffering form soothed to rest
And stilled the aching brain"
tThe above poem was read at the funeral OF Mrs.
Geo Il. Webb. at Mobile. Ala She was the young
est sister OF Mr. Rdgely Cayce and MIR. Stuart Cay

Now on whom does this condition fall
the hardest? We know that 1t falls
the hardest on the middle class farmers
and on the poor farmer and tenants,
who have to depend on the item of lime
to make good; who have to work. They
were laid up all last winter, and are
spending these precious days doing haul
ing and many other forms of work that
could have been done before with good
roads.
Road Tax an Investment
A tax for roads is not tax, but an
investment, that comes right back to
the farmers very door, and soon he sees
evidence of returns from his investment.
Often the land is increased ten times
it's original value, along hard surfaced
roads. Besides that, we have roads that
will enable us to attend church and
school the whole year round and at the
same time reducing many times over
the entire cost of worn out horses, mules,
buggies and wagons and all other We
hicles of transportation.
SO let us say once for all, I'VE are
going forward together. BIG MAN,
Little Man, all, you are going to do
your bit for our dear old Breckenridge.

Hog Cholera

Talbot county and other counties
are having hog cholera outbreaks,
which are costing thousands Of dol
lars. One farmer in Talbot caused a
bad outbreak by selling hogs with
cholera. That man is now under a
heavy bail, and will be tried Satur-
day. Our county hasn't a single
case. Let us keep it that way by
keeping a careful watch, and report
ing all cases of sick hogs to the
County Agent. Keep people dogs,
and buzzards away from your hogs,
and sprinkle the pens and hogs with
any good, reliable dip. You will re-
duce the chances of having cholera
to the lowest possible degree. A
stitch in time saves nine. Be care
full, and your hogs will not get the
cholera. Protect your neighbors'
stock as we'll as your own, by report
ing all sick hogs to County Agent.

Now is the time for every patriotic
citizen to go the limit in the purchase
of Fourth Liberty Bonds. There will
be no peace until the Kaiser and the
whole Potsdam crowd make an I'M
conditional surrender, and in the
meantime, it takes money to carry on
the war. Have you really gone the
limit? If not, do so at once. There
are only few more days and the
county must get its quota.
a few people are holding back
from subscribing for Liberty Bonds
because they think the war will soon
be over. The money will be needed,
whether tn Var ends soon or not. If
tn war is over soon, the bonds will
be the best investment any man can
hold; if it is not over soon, United

be the best investment that it is pos

dy Front-Allied Troops Have Bro

Fighting is Now Occurring Upon
Open Lands.
After having suffered, without rest.

on them by the Allied forces on the
front from Verdun to the North Sea,
after having seen division after di-
and after having given ground and
given ground until his communica-
tons twere completely upset and
thrown into a chaotic condition, Ger
man forces have been unable to with
stand the sledge hammer blows they
have received on the Picardy front
and are in full flight, with the Allied
troops in close pursuit and maintain
ing contact with them.
So closely harassed are the Huns
that they are abandoning supplies,
guns, equipment and everything that
tends to hamper their flight, even
rifles and side arms having been
thrown aside by many of the troops.
Their last defense line has been COM
pletely shattered, and the fighting
for while at least will be in the
open. The American, British and
French forces are sweeping rapidly
ahead and have already severed the
great railroad line which has been
the principal means of the enemy
communications. The Allied troops
have gained six miles more on a
stretch of fifty miles. The brave
troops from the United States have
smashed through the kremhilde Sys-
tenn of defenses and have safely cross
ed the Meuse. The Germans are re-
ported in wild flight on the section of
the fighting line.
The United Press statement, issued
at noon today, says:
Americans are through the Krem-
hide lines on front of nearly four
miles. They have smashed the last
organized German defenses West of
the Meuse, and are now advancing
lnorthward with only natural defen-
ses between them and the Belgium
frontier. The Argonne pocket has
been wiped out by the French and
American troops at Lancon. Aperi-
can Engineering Corps are moving
Through the woods and performing
wonders in the matter of the resotra-
ton OF roads which have been almost
completely destroyed. The section
Through which the troops have just
broken is filled with trees that have
been cut down and wired together

pede the progress of the American
troops. The boys from the good old
| U. S. \. are letting nothing halt
| their advance and have steadily ad-
vanced, although at times the ad,
vance was slow and costly.
The United Press quotes a Central
News dispatch, dated October 9Th
which says that it is reported from
Berlin that as the result of German
press comment ON the war question
the Government majority in the
Reichstag has adopted the whole OF
President Wilson's fourteen points
as the basis of peace.

DROCOURT- QUEANT
LINE LOSS BY FOE
OF VITAL IMPORT

London. Sept. 3.-The sensational
breaking Of the famous DrocOurt-
Queant switch line after a series Of
important allied advances with cap
lures of men has made an immense
impression here. While too great
confidence that the success can be
maintained is deprecated and while
the expectation is general that the
enemy VIII make the most desper-
ate efforts to recover the position,
the blow is regarded as one of the
worst disasters inflicted upon the
Germans during the whole war, and
one which must cause their high
command the deepest anxiety.
The belief is general that the
switch line IS the main system of
German defense and that there is
nothing equally strong behind it.
