TIE OLD ELEVENTH.

At IL O'Clock on May 10,
1919, representative of the
Eleventh Congressional District
came into his own. Our fellow
countyman, Judge Rollin Hurt,
of the Court of Appeals. who is
acting Chief Justice during the
absence of Judge Carroll, admin.
istered the oath of Office to James
d. Black, of Knox county, which
made Judge Black the Governor
of Kentucky for the remainder
of the present term.
Judge Hurt and Judge Black
fought the battles of Democracy
in the old Eleventh District for
more than twenty years, and
the picture presented in the
Courier Journal on the morning
of the 10th showing Judge Hurt
administering the oath to Judge
Black, was a very attractive
sight to every democrat in the old
Eleventh District.
