food and warmth and love.

it was possible to be obtained.
Eese records are for the most part
in manuscript and when it is under

which they were officially placed in
a fire-proof vault in the Bourbon
County Court House. where they
will be accessible to the public.
The committee is especially DESTROYS
that the boys look over the volumes
and see their records, all of which
will entitle Bourbon county an envi-
able chapter in History of the
Word War.
To the compilers of these vol
umes, not only the Kentucky Coun-
Gil of Defense, but the people of
Bourbon county to man, feel a
deep sense of gratitude to these ex-
cellent women for the magnanimous
gift they have contributed in behalf
of Bourbon's boys.
