DOESN'T it seem queer to have
~ a fall season without an Ak
Sar-Ber ball? No new gowns
being planned. jewels safely tucked
away in safety deposit vaults and
the narrow path of stern duty
straight ahead? At first it was
thought that there might be a cor

ers that be have decided against
any such merry making and. of
course, everyone is willing to bow
to royal decree.

self made man, and of fine nat
ural talents.
He was at one time Common
wealth's Attorney, and served
for many years as State Senator.
He was at one time a candidate
for Congress, and failed of cleo
ton by a few votes. He was
prominent Mason.
1t is said that he had a happy
way in finding authority in sup
port of his cases in court, when
legal propositions were under
discussion.
On one occasion a case was be-
ing tried in which he appeared
for the plaintiff, and George A.
Caldwell, then a young lawyer,
for the defendant. The Colonel,
in arguing the law of the case,
read quite deliberately from a
law book, and as Caldwell
thought, made part of the law
as he read it. When he had con-
cluded the reading, Caldwell po-
litely asked him to give him the
page and let him have the book.
The Colonel with apparent in.
dignation closed the book, threw
it on the table, saying, young
man, it is not my business to
find law for you, you must look
it up for yourself"
The suspicion was in the mind
of Caldwell, and others, that the
law could not be found, just in
the words as it had been read.
The Lindsey Wilson Training
School building is on or near the
site of the old Ovens residence.
Colonel Owens left d large fam
lily, several sons and daughters,
all of whom lived in Columbia.
Some of his grandchildren reside
in said town. One of his sons,
DR.. Heck Owens, was a surgeon
in the Mexican war, and also in
the civil war, and another son,
Hamilton Owens, served a tern
in the Legislature of the State
and was Lieutenant in the
! Mexican war.

the King farm, near Burkesville.
He was twice presidential elector
for the State. One of his grand
sons, John @. A. King, was
Lieutenant Governor of Ken
lucky, and his descendants have
been prominent in the affairs of
Cumberland county. and else
where in this and other States.
Long after the death of this old
soldier, it was the custom of the
militia of the county, on the an
nual muster day, to fire salute
in his honor. The Alexanders
of Burkesville are his lenial de.
scendants.
Another man who practiced in
the courts here at an early day,
and whose fame grew to be nat
ional, was Felix Grundy.
He was born in Berkeley Coun-
ty, Va, about ITO, or a little
later. He was at one time Chief
Justice of the State. In 1907 or
1903, he removed to Nashville,
Tenn: was in Congress from
1911 to 1914, and in the U. S.
Senate from 1929 to 1888. and in
the latter year was appointed
Attorney General of the United
States by President VanBuren.
He was married in Green coun.
ty to a Miss Rogers, and died at
Nashville, Dec. 10Th, 1910.
Thomas Montgomery is named
on the records among the first
attorneys of the county. He be.
longed to the Montgomery fam.
lily which settled at Logan's fort,
and into which Col. Ben Logan
and Col Casey married, and was
a boy, only a few years old, al
the time of the killing of a part
of the. family by Indians at the
Montgomery station in Lincoln
county.
Col. William Owens, a promi
nent member of the Columbis
bar, was born in Fauquier coun
ty,, Virginia, on the 4th of Ma!
1773. At ten years of age h
was brought to Kentucky by hi

little of interest that has hap
pened since we reached the city
that has not been published in
the papers, l will endeavor TO
drop a few notes that may be of
interest to your readers.
The weather here has been
ideal until yesterday, and to-day
it is very cold.
We find that largesper cent.
of the Adair county soldiers have
been transferred from Camp
Zachary Taylor to other Camps,
but what few are left here are
looking well, and every one we
have talked to expressed a de-
sire to be given a chance to go
after Boche, soon.
There are hundreds of disloyal
citizens here, and only last week
two were informed for the dura-
ton of the war. One of them
was young man who had got
ten into the army and for awhile
stood well in the estimation of
his superiors. But later it was
learned that he was disloyal to
this country. He was sent to
the Lebanon Jail to remain DUR
ing the war. The other was a
merchant, who has a wife and
nine children. He was heard
to express the idea that Presi-
dent Wilson and all his cabinet
should be killed and that all pub
lie places in Louisville should be
blown up. He was sent to the
Elizabethtown Jail to remain
during the war. This may give
a scare to others, but then let US
hope that the scoundrel who
poisoned those five hundred army
horses at Covington the other
day will be caught, court mar
tailed, and shot. And then
there is one other act l hope to
hear of Congress passing before
many weeks. That is an act to
prohibit the mails to any dirty
sheet published in German.
All of the Adair county colony
here are well. so far as l have
been able to learn.

The Call.

There's call comes ringing
Gross the deep blue sea,
From these brutal German heather
Won't you please come rescue me?
am just a woman
But I've been outraged
By those brutal German demons
Who so many crimes have staged.
o my darling baby,
She was taken from my side
And then by those fendish demons
In my sight was criciied.
Can't you hear her crying
In her agony?
Then come help the Lord avenge her
Is the plea l make of thee.
There's my darling sister
Who is Just sixteen
But she, too, has been victim
OF the German fend's rapine.
It's not my kin only
Who have been outraged,
But it's all the people living
Where the German war is waged.
1t is old men, women,
1t is youths and babes
Who have bourne the greatest torture
Known within the worlds decades,
Then if you're Christian
Won't you lend hand
To civilize those German fiends
Or to drive them from our land?
You in America
May not understand
What the women, girls and babies
Have to suffer in this land.
Just think Of boy babies
Who have lost hand
That they may not be soldier
And defend their own home land.
The call comes to women
The same as to men,
That they all may work togather
So the allies soon may win.
You can nurse the wounded,
There's food you can save,
You can knit gloves, hose and sweaters
For your own dear gallant brave
You can keey home going
While husbands away,
You can help feed orphan children
Who now have no where to stay.
The call still is ringing,
Don't turn deaf ear
Or the dreadful German menace
At your own home may appear.

We are indebted to Aliens
History of Kentucky for sketch
of some of the early attorneys
of the bar at Columbia. Allen
M. Wakefield was one of the ear
Hest admitted. He was also the
first prosecuting attorney ap-
pointed, and the first Circuit
Judge of the county. He was
resident of Greensburg, and was
admitted to practice there, Nov.
10th, 1895. He died at that
place about 1903 or 1909 when
about thirty.fve years of age.
His wife was Miss Thurman,
of Cumberland county. He was
said to be a thorough business
man, and regarded as a profound
lawyer for the time. In addi-
tion to his duties as a lawyer and
Judge, he prepared many stu
dents by his instruction for the
practice of the law.
Samuel Brents, admitted at
the same term of court, was. al
so resident of Greensburg. He
came from North Carolina, and
was a mere youth when his faith
er settled in Green county. He
enjoyed in his life an extensive
and lucrative practice, and was
held in very high esteem by the
public. He was prosecuting at.
torney of the court here, and
served a number of terms in the
Kentucky Legislature. He died
of cholera the 18th of June, 1888
John Emerson was admitted

Suppose Germany does reject the
allied armistice terms?
Suppose she prefers to fight on
rather than submit now to a "humil
ating" peace?
Suppose her military powers refuse
to appeal to General Foch for
peace, however much the people OF
Germany may desire it and stifle the
cries at home for an armistice?
Then Germany will feel forces which
have been held in leash.
Then the war by air will begin ON
the stupendous scale which recent dis.
patches have shown is possible with

Then the Prussians will feel the
