Frankfort, Ky., May 16

Private Thomas Kane, of Lexington, was shot and instantly killed by Private James Robertson. Both were members of the Beckham militia, and the shooting took place on the second floor of the court house, which is being used as an armory. Robertson was drunk and claims that his gun was discharged accidentally. Kane was in an adjoining room lying on his cot, and the ball passed through a pine wall before striking him.

Lexington Soldier Killed.

Thos. Kane Jr., a member of the Lexington company of State troops on guard at Frankfort was accidentally shot and killed Monday.   Jim Robertson, a comrade, had a quarrel with a third party and went into an adjoining room to get a gun; while loading it the weapon was discharged and the bullet entered Kane’s side, killing him instantly.

The Winchester Democrat, Friday, May 18, 1900.

 

Jas. Robertson, the Beckham soldier who accidentally killed his comrade, Thos. Kane, of Lexington, will probably br tried by a military court-martial. The verdict of the coroner’s jury exonerated Robertson. He is still in jail and is almost distracted.

Kappler, Herbert Self defense

Herbert Kappler fatally shot by Thomas Swope at Evansville, Indiana

A street car strike had been on for several days at Evansville, Indiana, and Thomas   Swope had been employed as a non union conductor. Herbert Kappler, a union molder, entered the car and raised trouble with Swope who shot him through the body inflicting what is thought to be a mortal wound. Owing to the excited condition of affairs at Evansville, Swope was at once taken to the State Reformatory at Jeffersonville to prevent the possibility of mob violence. Swope is a son of John W. Swope, of this county, and is a young man who has always stood very high in the community. Mr. Swope, Sr., visited his son this week and feels sure that there will be but little trouble to show that his son acted in self defense. The Street Railway authorities have employed eminent counsel to defend him and Hon. John M. Stevenson, of this city, will assist in the defense. The Baptist church at Jeffersonville to which he belongs, is also taking a prominent part in his behalf. The latest news from Kappler is that he was dying. Young Swope expresses much regret for the necessity that required him to shoot Kappler, but he believes his own life was in imminent danger and feels justified.

The Winchester Democrat Friday, July 30, 1909

 

Wound causes death

Herbert Kappler, the man who was shot on a street car at Evansville, Indiana, by     Thomas Swope, formerly of this county, died at that place Friday morning and the   charge against Swope has been changed to murder. Swope is still in the Jeffersonville Reformatory and feels that he can show that he acted in self defense.

The Winchester Democrat Tuesday, August 3, 1909

 

Held over

Thomas Swope, who as a non-union conductor, shot and killed Herbert Knappler at Evansville, Indiana, July 24th, and who was taken to the State Reformatory at Jeffersonville for safe keeping, was returned to Evansville last Monday. Saturday           he was arranged before Police Judge Blakey, of that city, and was held over without     bail to await the action of the Grand jury. John M. Stevenson, of this city, who will   defend him, appeared for him at his examining trial.

To assist in defense

Blue Grass Council of Lexington of the Travelers Protective Association is taking       active steps to assist in the defense of Thomas Swope who is charged with the killing       of Keppler at Evansville, Indiana.

The Winchester Democrat Tuesday, August 31, 1909

 

Has returned home

Some time ago Thomas Swope, of this city, when acting as street car conductor at Evansville, Ind., was forced to kill a man named Keppler. A strike of the union street car employers was in progress and Keppler was a union man while Swope was not. Passion and hatred burned so fiercely that Swope was taken to the State Reformatory to avert violence. When the excitement had subsided he was taken back to Evansville where the Grand Jury refused to indict him and he was released and at once returned to his home here. All who knew of the circumstances felt that he was justified in his action and would have been acquitted had the matter come to trial.

Kavanaugh, Ben T. Dr. Ben T. Kavanaugh died July 3rd at the residence of his nephew, Hub L. Stevens, near Combs Ferry, this county, aged 81 years. He was a native of this county and for more than sixty years had been a minister in the Methodist church. His father, William Kavanaugh, was a preacher of considerable note, and the whole family have been noted for their talents. Of five sons, four were preachers and all have been noted for their solid reasoning powers as well as eloquence. The eldest, Bishop Hubbard Kavanaugh, was for a long time the most prominent Methodist divine in the State. Another brother, Leroy, was Clerk of the Court of Appeals many years ago, and died in office while comparatively a young man. Dr. Kavanaugh, was an author of no mean repute, and a recent work published by him, in which he discards the popular idea of the attraction of gravitation being the cause of the numerous phenomena usually attributed to it, and shows those phenomena to be the effect of well known electrical laws, has attracted much attention. He was very prominent in Masonic circles and was the first Grand Master of the State of Wisconsin and also held a similar position in Texas. He was twice married, his first wife being Miss M. Linkenbelter, of the county, his last wife to whom he was married about eight years ago, and who died a few weeks since, was Mrs. Barre. The remains were carried to Mt. Sterling for interment and his funeral was preached by Rev. W. F. Noland. He was buried with Knights Templar honors, Dr. J. H. Young, of this city, officiating in the ceremonies. But three of a very, large family of brothers and sisters survive him.   These are Rev. Barbour Kavanaugh, of Pleasureville, Judge Ed. T. Taylor, of this county, and Mrs. John Stevens of Boonesboro.

Kavanaugh, deceased for many years a resident of Pendleton county, whose home the “Double   Cabins” was noted for its generous and genial hospitality.   There were kinsmen who wore the same size hats and boots and their father would tell by buying for a lot the same thing he got wholesale prices. Three of the boys became ministers, Deke and H.H. Kavanaugh Jr. died some years ago. They were nephew’s of Kentucky’s famous and eloquent Bishop H. H. Kavanaugh of the M. E.

Their Grandmother was the wife of the eccentric Dr. Thomas Hinde of Newport who being a infidel at that time applied strong mustard plaster when she professed conversion and obtained the church.   The doctor afterward embraced Christianity and became a valued church member. The Hindes and their descendants the Kavanaughs, Poynters and others are conspicuous figures in the History of the Methodist Church in Kentucky.”

Kavanaugh, W. Barbour Died at the home of his son, near Falmouth, last week, of paralysis, W. Barbour Kavanaugh, aged 84 and for more than a century a prominent preacher in the Methodist church. He was the last of a Clark county family noted for their scholarly attainments. His brother, Hubbard Kavanaugh, was long one of the most eminent bishops of that church in the United States. Benjamin, another brother was also a very eloquent minister who died a few years ago.   He was an enthusiastic Mason and enjoyed the peculiar distinction of having been Grand Master of the order in three different states. Ed. T. Taylor, a half brother was County Judge of this county during the war and was a man of much knowledge, though sometimes lacking in practical sagacity. Mrs. John Stevens, nee Martin, was a half sister to both Judge Taylor and the Kavanaughs. She was a woman of great strength of mind and purpose.

Kavanaugh, W. R. A NOTABLE FAMILY.

The Cynthiana Times has the following concerning a branch was at one time a notable family of this county. The Rev. Peter Elkamen Kavanaugh, who died recently in Henry county, was well known in this county in past years, having served as pastor of several of the country churches. He was a son of the Rev. W. R. Kavanaugh, deceased for many years a resident of Pendleton county, whose home the “Double   Cabins” was noted for its generous and genial hospitality.   There were kinsmen who wore the same size hats and boots and their father would tell by buying for a lot the same thing he got wholesale prices. Three of the boys became ministers, Deke and H.H. Kavanaugh Jr. died some years ago. They were nephew’s of Kentucky’s famous and eloquent Bishop H. H. Kavanaugh of the M. E. Church south, who got his start in life as a printers devil in a Paris printing office. Their Grandmother was the wife of the eccentric Dr. Thomas Hinde of Newport who being a infidel at that time applied strong mustard plaster when she professed conversion and obtained the church.   The doctor afterward embraced Christianity and became a valued church member. The Hindes and their descendants the Kavanaughs, Poynters and others are conspicuous figures in the History of the Methodist Church in Kentucky.”

Kearns, Mary A Fatal Accident.

An accident that speedily proved fatal occurred Friday afternoon on the C. and O. railroad near the depot, this city. Mrs. Mary Kearns, an aged lady who lived near where Jackson street crosses the C. and O. road, and who frequently goes to and from home by way of the railroad track, was run over and fatally injured by a freight with Capt. Wood as engineer was on one tract and by means of a pole or brace was pushing some freight cars on the parallel track. Mrs. Kearns was walking close by the side of the rail and did not see the cars or hear the shouts of those who saw her danger. The end of the car struck her and knocked her down. She fell in such a manner that the wheels passed over one leg between the knee and ankle so badly mangling the limb that immediate amputation was necessary. She was carried to the depot where to limb was removed. Owing to her advanced age, eighty-four years, she never rallied from the operation and died shortly after being carried to her home. Father Ryan, her pastor, had been summoned immediately after the accident and arrived in time to render the last services of the church before she lost consciousness. A brakeman who had tried to save her was struck by the car and was badly bruised.   She leaves two children, Wm. Kearns, a well know railroad man of this city, and Patrick Kearns, a section foreman on the Cincinnati Southern road, who lives at Greendale, Fayette county.   The funeral was held Sunday morning at St. Joseph Church, this city, and the remains were carried to Paris for interment.   She was a native of Ireland, but came to this country nearly fifty years ago.   She lived for a long time in Carlisle, but had been living in this city for several years, she was a godly pious woman devoted to her Church and was loved by all who knew her.

Wilson and W. P. Azbill. The inquest was adjourned until Monday afternoon when it was concluded.   Nothing new was developed and the jury brought in a verdict in accordanance with the facts as given in our last issue. Several lawyers were present at the inquest which looks like a suit for damages is in contemplation.

Kearns, William H. Sudden Death

Wednesday afternoon shortly after the fire on North Main Street, William H. Kearns, who felt suddenly indisposed, went to the office of Drs. Browne for relief. As he reached the office he staggered and became unconscious.   He revived in a few minutes but soon became unconscious and died, in a little while.

Coroner Wills was soon there and made an investigation. No jury was deemed necessary, as it was evident that death was due to apoplexy.

He was a quite, unassuming man, and well liked by all who knew him. He was about 41 years old and a consistent member of the Catholic Church.

He had long been a member of the Fire Department and his last work was in the performance of his duty as fireman a few minutes before his death.

He was never married but lived with his mother until she was killed by the cars some months ago. As her executor he had brought suit against the road for a large sum as damages, which suit is still pending in the Federal Court.

The funeral will take place at St. Joseph’s Church this evening at 7:00 o’clock, services by Rev. W. B. Ryan and interrment in the Catholic Cemetery in Paris.

The Fire Department will attend the funeral in a body.

Keene, William Storey A Good Man Gone

Seldom have we seen such universal sorrow manifested as was the case this week when the death of Eld. Keene was announced. Nature made him a gentleman and the grace of God and the love of Christ and his cause made him a Christian. Although he had lived here only a few years, he was known to most of our people and loved by all. Kind, gentle, patient and considerate, he was just the man to whom the sorrowful, the stricken or the unfortunate could approach for consolation, courage and help.

The gospel he preached was not a system of cold, hard, logical facts or mental aberrations, but it was a sunny, cheerful, loving presentation of the goodness, the love and the mercy of God, which helped, comforted and strengthened those who heard.

William Storey Keene was born in 1840 at Richmond, county of Surrey, England, about six miles from London. When about fourteen years old he ran away from home and joined the British navy where he served some time, attaining the rank of midshipman. He then left the navy and served on board merchantmen, and was for some time in command of a ship from New London, Connecticut. As a sailor he went around the world three times and stood beneath the icebergs in the land of the “Midnight Sun” and had sweltered under the burning heat of the   tropics.

At the breaking out of the civil war he was blockaded in a southern port and with the ardor of a young man joined his fortunes with those of the Confederacy, serving through the war with the Eighth Georgia.

During the great revival of religion that swept like a tidal wave over the Confederate army of Virginia, he was converted and began preaching before he was baptized. He was afterward captured by the Federals, and while on his way to prison, the troops stopped for a while at Lancaster, this State. His preaching to the soldiers attracted the notice of some of the citizens who procured his release. He went to school at Lancaster and finished at Georgetown college. He entered the Baptist ministry and served as Pastor at Lancaster, Versailles, and Vevay. While at the latter place and after serving seven years as a Baptist minister he became convinced that the Christian church was nearer right and he joined the ministry of that church.

He served as pastor at Ghent and afterward at Petersburg. His health failed and he went to Florida where he engaged in orange growing. Malaria seized him and he returned to Boone county where he labored fourteen years with the churches at Florence, Point Pleasant and Bullittsville; He also preached for churches at Walton, Crittenden and Williamstown. He served the First Christian Church at Covington for ten years and four years ago he was called by the church at this place, where he has since been located.

In 1864 he was united in marriage to Miss Sallie Davis, of Fayette county, who with one daughter, Elizabeth, survives him. A son, William and daughter, Maggie died in infancy.

For some time he had been in failing health and Monday evening the end came and his life passed away as peacefully as a babe falls to sleep.

The funeral services were held at the First Christian Church by the resident pastor of the city, and short services at the house by Eld. Graham, of Lexington, Dr. Savage, of this city, and Eld. Haley, of Cynthiana. Besides the resident pastors, Revs. Shoose and Spencer of Lexington; Rupard, Rash and French, of this city were present. The deceased was an enthusiastic Odd Fellow and was Chaplain of Hickman Lodge. The remains were carried to Lexington for interment. A large number from here being present.

His mother still survives him, living at Sidney, Australia, and a sister lives at Melbourne.

The floral decorations were the finest ever seen here. Among the set pieces were the following:

“Gates Ajar,” from the members of his congregation.

“Pillow,” from the local C. W. B. M.

“Crescent,” from the Senior Christian Endeavor.

“Crescent and Harp,” from the State C. W. B. M.

“Carnations,” from the Junior Christian Endeavor.

“Large Wreath,” from Mrs. Keene’s Sunday School Class.

“White Floral Bow,” badge of the order, from the local W. C. T. U.

“Three Links,” from Hickman Lodge I. O. O. F.

“Cross,” from the resident pastors.

We join with the large concourse of friends in sympathy with the bereaved family.

Resolution Of The Resident Pastors

Whereas, It hath pleased Almighty God, in his wise providence, to call from labor to reward, Elder W. S. Keene, pastor of the First Christian Church, of our city, and

Whereas, In the death of Brother Keene, we his brother ministers, experience a profound sense of personal loss, and not only the members of his own church, but all the Christian people of our community are deeply pained at the sad announcement of his death; therefore be it resolved,

1. That in the departure of our beloved brother, the ministers of Winchester recognize that a useful, beautiful and noble life has closed, and that our ranks have suffered the loss of a faithful servant of God and an able minister of his Word. Resolved.

2. That to his bereaved family and pastorless church, we extend our most cordial sympathy, and offer in their behalf our heartfelt prayers; commending them “to God and to the word of his grace, which is able to build them up and give them an inheritance among all them which are sanctified.” Resolved,

3. That a copy of these resolutions be given the family and furnished to our local papers and spread upon the minutes of our Ministerial Association. An now beloved brother, farewell. Peace to thy memory. Thy barque has safely reached the shore. Thou hast been welcomed and crowned. As thy sympathizing and sorrowing fellow laborers, we lay this flower of love upon your bier. We live in the blessed hope that we shall meet again, some sweet day.

“When with the morn, those angel faces smile Which we have loved long since and lost awhile.”   H. G. Henderson, Pastor Methodist Church. J. J. Chisholm, Pastor Presbyterian Church. B. B. Bailey, Pastor Baptist Church. J. A. Francis, Pastor Cumberland Presbyterian Church.

 

Soldiers Tribute To A Soldier.

Tuesday afternoon, April 19, 1898, a large number of the members of the Clark County Confederate Association met at the Courthouse and were called to order by Col. J. T. Tucker, President of the Association.

On Motion the President appointed a Committee of five members to draft resolutions of respect for the memory of their deceased comrade, Elder W. S. Keene.

The following were appointed said Committee: Leeland Hathaway, Chairman; B. F. Curtis, D. J. Pendleton, W. B. Wills, R. P. Scobee. The following are the resolutions offered by the Committee, and which were unanimously adopted by the meeting:

Our comrade, W. S. Keene, has been ordered to the Eternal Camping Ground, and his spotless tent is pitched among the immortals.

The transfer was not a surprise, and when the Great Captain gave the command, the old soldier answered as he had answered every roll-call, “Ready.”

Comrade Keene was a model by which the young soldier may fashion his career. All of the better attributes of manhood, courage, courtesy, fidelity and patriotism, lent their blended charm to make him a stainless gentleman, a chivalric soldier and a Christian. We loved him for his virtues, admired him for his nobility and we mourn him as a comrade, “without fear and without reproach.”

We his comrade, will attend his funeral as a body.

We request the county papers to publish these resolutions, and direct that they be spread on the records.

Resolutions

Adopted by Hickman Lodge, I. O. O. F. on the Death of Eld. W. S. Keene.

Whereas, it has pleased the Almighty, in His infinite and inscrutable wisdom, to call from his earthly labors to the Great Grand Lodge above, our beloved Chaplain and esteemed Brother, W. S. Keene, now therefore be it

Resolved, That while we meekly bow in humble submission to the Divine will, we deplore the loss of our loved friend and brother, whose good works and kindly deeds in Odd Fellowship will live in its history’s pages as long as the Lodge and time shall last. He was faithfully and zealously a soldier of the cross just as he had been a soldier of the cross, just as he had been a soldier of his adopted country’s flag. He followed Christ as ardently as he followed the Confederate cause in earthly warfare. Being wedded to honor and to principle, willing to do, to give, to suffer for any cause which his heart and mind espoused, he was first of all faithful and active in the work of an ardent earnest, Christian life, and knowing that Odd Fellowship was but one of the blossoms on religion’s vine, he tended it in all patience and lovingness to make it worthy of the parent stem. Modest in all things, gentle and retiring by nature, he was ever at the front when prompt, courageous, helpful action was demanded. Odd Fellowship never made a call upon him to which he did not at once respond and proudly step to the front for duty, under the banner of the glorious Order on whose guidon is emblazoned, Friendship, Love, and Truth. He had the courage of a lion and the fragrant purity of a lily. We honor his blameless and beautiful life and love his memory.

Resolved, That the members of Hickman Lodge attend his funeral in a body, and that the usual badges of mourning be worn for thirty days.

Resolved, That these resolutions be spread upon the minutes of the Lodge that the Secretary be directed to send a copy to the bereaved family of our deceased brother, with the assurance of our deepest sympathy in their irreparable loss and that The Winchester Democrat and Sun be requested to publish the same. T. G. Stuart,

W. A. Attersall,

Elder W. S. Keene.

In most of the grief which people experience in this world there is a great deal of selfishness; and a Christian’s sorrow over a Christian’s death is altogether is selfish. Did not our savior, confident of the triumph of His mission on the cross, give grief a conspicuous place among the beatitudes—“Blessed are they that Mourn:” And has he not from his throne in glory, anticipating doubtless the   trophies of His grace which we are witnessing today, declared, “Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord.” Therefore the Christian alone of all men has a reason and a right to glory in tribulation, to rejoice in the presence of death, even when the eyes are blinded by tears and the heart is bleeding from the breaking of the “cords of a man and bonds of love.” For the Christ whom we preach and serve “hath abolished death and hath brought life and immortality to light through the Gospel.” What a glorious gospel is ours, when we pass into the valley of shadows! What strength and inspiration does our faith in the Truth impart when we stand by the coffin of this preacher of the Gospel, when we enter his sorrowing household, we weep and mourn for the departure of our brother and friend? But we rejoice and our joy triumphs over our sorrow!

Death to us is loss—all loss—the loss of his fellowship, the loss of his sympathy, the loss of his service. But death to him is gain—only gain—enjoyment of a nearer companionship with Jesus, entrance into His excellent glory, elevation in His blessed service.

Death to us is sickness, struggle, suffering, surrender—a fearful fight in prospect with our last enemy. But death to him now is health, peace, joy and victory—the good fight is fought, the course is finished, the crown is won!

Death to us is decay, dissolution, gloomy and repugnant in all its physical accompaniments. But death to him now is development and revelation, progressive and rapturous in all its spiritual associations—yes, it is life, holy and happy, life abundant and abiding.

Wondrous change, this death hath wrought for people and for preacher!

We sorrow, stricken family and sympathizing friends; yet we sorrow only for ourselves—for our loss, that we shall see his face no more in the flesh. But for him we are glad—widow daughter, fellow Christians, brother preachers, we all may and must rejoice! For remember, the servant is with the Master whom he served—the soldier is with the Captain whom he followed—the disciple is with the Lord whom he loved—the ambassador of Christ hath ended his ministry of reconciliation in which he was faithful to the last and hath entered the presence of the King in glory! Trusting in the love which cannot fail and in the wisdom which never yet has erred, we say, “Even so Father, for so it seemed good in thy sight.”

“Blessed is our dead”; for he died in the Lord,” And “blessed are we that mourn, for we are comforted.”

We are comforted by the memory of the life which he lived—of the tenderness of his affections in the home, of the courage of his conviction for truth and duty on the field and in the pulpit, of the spirit of unity and charity which he showed to his brethren in the ministry. We are comforted by the glorious Gospel which he preached and with which he so often comforted others. We are comforted by the blessed comfort of the Only Comforter who gives strength for every hour of need and who, through all other changes, shall abide with us forever.     J. J. C.

HEAVENLY BIRTHDAY.

To-day is the first anniversary of the death of Eld. W. S. Keene, the beloved pastor of the First Christian Church of this city. By request the following lines are published in memory thereof:

“One year among the angels, beloved, thou hast been, One year have you heaven’s white portals shut out the sound of sin: And yet no voice, no whisper, comes floating down from thee

To Tell us what glad wonders a year of heaven would may be.

Our hears before it listen-the beautiful, closed gate-

The silence yearns around us, we listen and we wait.

It is thy heavenly birthday-on earth the lilies bloom,

In thy immortal garland, canst find for them no room?

Thou lovedst all things lovely, when walking with us here,

Now from the heights of heaven, seems earth no longer dear?

“Heaven is but life may richer, therein can be no loss;

To meet our love and longing, thou hast no gulf to cross.

No adamant between us rears its rocky screen;

That veil’twixt earth and heaven, a breath might waft aside,

We breathe one air, beloved! We follow one dear guide.

Passed into open vision, out of our mists and rain,

Thou seest how sorrow bossoms, how peach is now from pain.

Because we know yee near us, and nearer still to him,

Who fills thy cup of being with glory to the brim.

We will not stain with grieving, our fair tho fainter light,

But cling to thee in spirit, as if tho were in sight.

And as in waves of beauty the swift years come and go.

Upon celestial currents our deeper life shall flow.

Hearing from that sweet country, where blighting never come,

Love chime the hours here on earth, and heaven the same.

Keener, Mrs. Annie A Fatal Jump.

A dispatch from Mt. Sterling of Friday says Mrs. Annie Keener was there from Sharpsburg visiting her daughter, Mrs. Fulton Green. They attended the exercises at the cemetery. When they were at the Chesapeake and Ohio crossing on their return, Mrs. Keener imagined she heard a train approaching and sprang from the vehicle. The fall caused paralysis of the brain and she died that night of her injuries.

She was a native of Ireland and a woman of very great force of character, which her children have inherited. Her eldest daughter is the wife of the first Vice President of the Illinois Central railroad. Another daughter is the wife of Mr. Charles Reed, of Mason county. Her sons have all attained eminence. Thomas is a prominent business man at Knoxville, Tenn. Will is official stenographer of Congress, Dexter is Superintendent of the Treasury branch of the Government Printing Office at Washington, Henry is a prominent physician and druggist at Flemingsburg, James, who was formerly foreman of THE DEMOCRAT office is now Chairman of the Democratic County Committee of Mason county and Master Commissioner of the Mason Circuit Court, Mark is a prominent man of Maysville and a few years ago declined the Presidency of the National Cigar Makers Union of the United States. Mrs. Kehoe was one of the noblest and best types of womanhood in Kentucky.   Of her it was said in his famous speech, nominating her distinguished son, Hon. J. Dexter Kehoe for Public Printer in 1882 by Hon. W. J. Hendrick, now Attorney General of Kentucky, “Left in the wilds of Lewis county, a widow with a large family of helpless children and with no portion save honor and brains, but endowed with a lofty character and indomitable will, a mother’s boundless love, unaided save by the labors of her little ones, she reared them all to be men of mark and women of worth and all like herself, bread-winners in the battle of life.”   Of such are the salt of the earth and the kingdom of Heaven, and a glorious crown awaits her on the shining shores of eternity and with the need of “ Well done, thou good and faithful servant.” Enter thou into the joys of eternal rest.

Keith, Jasper Farmer Keith’s Terrible Discovery

Jasper Keith, a farmer living in Winston county, Alabama, awoke one morning and found his wife and 8-months-old baby dead in bed by his side. Their bodies were badly swollen, and coiled in one corner of the bed was a moccasin snake, whose bite is as fatal as that of the rattlesnake. During the night the snake had crawled into the bed and had bitten Mrs. Keith and the child. Keith was so overcome with grief and horror that he fell prostrate across the dead bodies of his wife and baby.

This aroused the snake, and it struck at Keith, but it’s fangs caught in the sleeves of his nightshirt and he escaped the fatal sting. Realizing his peril Keith caught the snake in his hand and hurled it to the floor before it could strike again.—Cor. Philadelphia Press

Last April she was recovering from a long attack of fever. One evening she started downstairs, but when half way down the bones of her leg gave way with a peculiar glass-like snap.   Her husband carried her back to the bedroom and on the way the bones of her right leg broke in several places.   Mrs. Kelley experienced no pain either at the breaking or the setting of the bones. They knit rapidly and occasioned her no discomfort, though ever since the slighest exertion would break them again. Surgeons said the cause was deficiency of animal and a superabundance of mineral matter in the bones. She has of course been confined to her bed since that time until death came to her relief last Saturday.

Kellner, Alma Body found in cellar

Millionaire uncle of Alma Kellner identifies gruesome find

Louisville, Ky., – A body which was identified by her millionaire uncle, Frank Fehr, as the eight-year-old daughter of Fred L. Kellner, and who disappeared from her home last December, was found in a sub-basement of St. John’s Catholic school at Clay and Walnut streets. The condition of the corpse indicated that it had been in its damp hiding place for several months. The discovery was made by a plumber at work in the cellar. The decaying torso, for a limb is missing, was wrapped in a piece of carpet. The missing limb was found in another part of the cellar, the foot bearing the shoe. The scene of the gruesome find is only five blocks from the Kellner home. Alma Kellner disappeared December 8 and from that time until the body was found not a word was heard concerning her. She left her home on the morning in question, to attend a service at St. John’s church, and the last seen of her was when she waived goodbye to her mother in front of her residence. The search for the missing girl extended all over the United States. The wife of a former janitor of the school was arrested and charged with being accessory to murder. Her husband is being sought to tell what he knows of the child’s death. While men were at work on the premises where Alma Kellner was murdered, pathetic scenes were enacted at the undertaking establishment of L.D. Bax, where the skeleton was placed in a small, white casket, with a silver plate on top bearing the inscription: “Our Darling.” The funeral was conducted from the undertaking establishment and was attended by Frank Fehr, cousin of the murdered child.

Mrs. Muena, in her letter, says that she is “wearied out with telephone calls and newspaper reporters,” and claims her business in Hume has been injured to such an extent that she will have to open for the fall trade in some other place.

Claims bloody clothing

Wendling then refused to talk upon advice of attorney

Louisville – Joseph Wendling, indicted on the charge of murdering Alma Kellner, is now in the Jefferson county jail, awaiting trial at the October term of court. Upon his arrival here Wendling was taken to the office of Col. H. Watson Lindsey, chief of police, and there shown the bloody clothing which are supposed to have been worn when the murder of which he is accused, was committed. Wendling identified several of the articles as having belonged to him, but when his attorney, J. Reginald Clements, arrived he advised his client not to talk any further to the police. This sealed the lips of the prisoner.

Life term for Joseph Wendling

Circumstantial evidence saves him from the gallows – jury out for over four hours

Convicted murderer of Alma Kellner smiles at the verdict – Attorneys will make an appeal – Story of the crime

Louisville – Jos. Wendling, charged with the atrocious murder of little Alma Kellner, in December of 1909, must spend the remainder of his natural life behind prison walls. So said a jury in the criminal branch of the Jefferson circuit court after a week had been spent in the trial of this famous case. Wendling accepted the finding of the 12 men more complacently than any of the spectators. The room was crowded. Wendling and his wife, who has sat beside him during the trial, wore the half smile which has characterized them both throughout the six days of the ordeal. Wendling was asked in French if he had any comment to make on the verdict of the jury. The prisoner smiled, looked over at his attorneys and said: “I no guilty – if I guilty, I should be hanged. They tell lies. They frame up on me. But you take care of me all right.” Then he looked into the face of his wife. They were close together and he whispered a word to her. Instantly Mrs. Wendling’s face was abeam with a smile. She took the prisoner’s hand and prepared to leave the court room. Wendling from all outward appearances was not disturbed by the verdict. After giving his first attention to his wife, he spoke to Capt. Clements, then to John Ray, when he again settled back into his chair. J. Reginald Clements, his attorney, was emphatic in his expression of opinion. He said he would ask for a new trial, adding: “It was a cowardly verdict. The jurors should have had the courage of their convictions. If they believed Wendling guilty they should have fixed his punishment at death.” For four hours and 20 minutes the jury deliberated. Its members entered into an argument not to tell how many ballots were taken nor how their discussion of the case proceeded. When the verdict was read one spectator applauded with handicaps. Judge Gregory ordered the man brought before him and fined him $10. “This is not a theater; where do you thing you are?”

Basis for appeal – Wendling’s attorneys declare their faith in the prisoner’s innocence, and say they will immediately file a motion for a new trial. They say they will base their petition for a new hearing on an affidavit that one of the jurors in the case was prejudiced. Frank Fehr, the man who as a relative of the Kellner family had been diligent to a marked degree to ferret out the mystery of the child’s disappearance almost a year ago, was in the court room when the jury came in. He would make no statement for the Kellner family, except to say: “If he is the guilty man – and the jury thinks so – he should be convicted.”

Story of the crime – Alma Kellner was the 9-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Kellner, of this city. She was last seen in St. John’s Catholic church December 8, 1909, where she had gone for mass. When she failed to return home after several hours her family became alarmed and notified the police. It was first believed the child had been kidnapped, and numerous rewards were offered for her return. Wendling was the janitor of the church, and two or three witnesses swore he was in the church on December and closely observed Alma at the altar. Father Schuhmann, the priest of the church, complained to Wendling of a foul odor about the building. “Yes, me burn old rags,” he replied. A representative of the gas company was denied possession of keys to the church that he might read the meter, but Wendling accompanied him and carefully locked the door afterwards, when always before the key had been easily accessible. About June 14, 1910, Frank Fehr, the wealthy brewer, a relative of the Kellners, visited the church and remarked in the presence of the janitor that he expected Pinkerton detectives would be detailed to the case. The next day Wendling disappeared. Up to this time he had not been suspected, but tracing his subsequent movements and comparison of his previous actions culminated in fastening the crime upon him. Postal card gave clue – Chief of Detectives Carney, of this city, who personally conducted the search for Wendling, had almost given up the hunt when he located Mrs. Cora Munea, a milliner, at Hume, Md. Wendling had known Mrs. Munea in Texas, and had proposed marriage to her. Mrs. Munea denied any knowledge of Wendling, but Capt. Carney found a post card from Wendling mailed to California. Carney telegraphed his information to the San Francisco police and the arrest followed.

The Winchester Democrat   Tue., Dec. 17, 1901

Kelly, Jim                             AA On last Thursday afternoon Jim Kelly, a Negro, who worked for Peter Crow, section boss on the First Division of the Kentucky Central extension running out from Paris, went to the house of Mr. Crow, which is three miles from that city, and has no neighbors within half a mile, and finding no one at home with Mrs. Crow, made an attempt to rape her, but did not succeed until he had kept up his attempt for more than three hours. He finally knocked her down, held her by the throat with one hand, and held a pistol in her face with the other, and accomplished his purpose. The fiend was captured and taken to Paris and lodged in jail, and at about 2 o’clock a mob of one hundred angry and excited men went to the jail, and, overpowering Jailer James and his son, they secured the prisoner and hung him to the second railroad bridge below Paris.   The criminal was a large, burly Negro, weighing over 200 pounds, and Mrs. Crow is a small, delicate lady of thirty years of age, and was formerly Miss Henry, of Nicholas county. The verdict of the people is that the hanging was a just one. Mr. And Mrs. Crow are well and favorably known in Clark County and Winchester, he having been section master at Austerlitz, this county.

Kemp, James (Ash Barrel Jimmy) “Ash Barrel Jimmy” officially known as Capt. James Kemp, of the Salvation Army, was laid to rest in Boston a few days ago by his comrades of the army. He was the first and probably the most famous convert made by the Salvation Army in this country. His conversion took place fifteen years ago in New York, where he had for a long time been a habitual drunkard, and where he got his nickname from being found drunk in an ash barrel. After joining the army his mode of life changed, and he became not only a sober, industrious man, but an earnest and fearless   worker in the ranks of the army. He was subjected to bitter persecution at the hands of his former associates; on one occasion he had several of his front teeth broken by a blow on the mouth, and at another time he was stabbed in the back; but no persecution could turn him back from his work.

Kendall, Amos The Cassell Murder.

Milton Kendall and son, who have been in jail for some time charged with the murder of Eugene Cassell, in Jessamine county while the latter was defending his chicken roost, have been ordered taken to the Nicholasville jail. The prisoners and their friends were afraid of their being lynched and Gov. Taylor ordered a detail of eighty soldiers from Lexington companies under Capt. Longmire as a guard. The Jessamine people are mad about it and claim that the prisoners would be in no danger from a mob.

Amos Kendall, the son, who was run over by a train at Bowling Green while the officers were looking for him, and who had both legs amputated, died without making any confession. It was claimed that he had been shot by Cassell at the time of the killing, but his legs were so mutilated by the cars that no signs of a bullet wound were found, even if they existed.

It is now said the police have a clue involving a huckster who lives in Fayette county, somewhere in the vicinity of Athens.

No section of the State can show a sadder official record than death has made in Eastern Kentucky within less than twenty years. First, Judge John M. Elliott, of the Court of Appeals, fell dead on our streets at the hands of an assassin, afterwards sentenced to death and later declared insane.   Judge Richard Reid, of Mt. Sterling, of the Superior Court, died by his own hand. Senators Joseph Garder, R. M. Pieratt and James S. Hargis died while in the performance of their official duties. Congressman W. P. Taulbee was killed in Washington; Judge Van B. Young, of the Superior Court, was scarcely at rest in the grave before Congressman J. W. Kendall followed him.

Kendrick, Julius S. Death of Eld. Kendrick

Eld. Julius Kendrick died at an early hour Tuesday morning at his home in Danville, aged forty-six years. For some time he had been a sufferer from Bright’s disease which had recently assumed an acute form.

He was one of the best known and most popular ministers of the Christian Church in the State. He was a native of Grant county and had fought his way to a position of prominence and usefulness against adverse circumstances. He graduated from the College of Bible of Kentucky University and entered the ministry of the Christian Church. He had charge of churches at Selma, Alabama, Dallas, Texas, coming here from the latter place. He was here for several years and, by his gentle, cheery manner and gentlemanly qualities greatly endeared himself to our people regardless of church affiliations.

Eight years ago he resigned the charge of the First Christian Church of this city to accept a call to Danville where he has since resided. He leaves a wife, formerly Miss Alice Woollery and two children, a son of about seventeen years, and a baby a few months old.

The funeral was held at Danville, services being conducted by Eld. Mark Collis, of Lexington, and Eld. F. M. Baines, of Cincinnati.

We understand that he left about $5,500 insurance on his life.

Just ten days before her death she lost a sister, Mrs. Fannie Smitzer, who died at her home in Nicholasville, aged 86. Another sister, Mrs. Martha Posthlewaite, of Chanut, Kansas, survives at the age of 80. Mrs. Kerr leaves five sons and a daughter, viz: S P. Kerr, of this city, Thos. F. Kerr, of Houston, Texas, J. D. Kerr, of Versailles, Ill., E. E. Kerr, of Louisville, J. W. Kerr, of Sour Woods, Texas, and Mrs. Jno. S. Crow, of Paris, Mo. She was a member of the Christian church, and a good true woman.

Kerr, Smith P. Death of one of Winchester’s Most Prominent and useful Citizens

Smith P. Kerr died at his home on Belmont Street at an early hour yesterday morning, aged sixty-six years. For more than a year past he has been a great sufferer, but these sufferings he bore with patience and fortitude. The funeral will be held at the First Presbyterian Church tomorrow afternoon at three o’clock and the services will be conducted by Rev. Wm. Cumming. The following pall bearers have been selected: Active, M.T. McEldowney, J. Clayton Ramsey, S.J. Faris, Wm. Woolcott, Thos. Walden, W.J. Walden. Honorary, W.M. Beckner, T.F. Phillips, John C.M. Day, T.L. Phillips, John C.M. Day, T.L. Phillips, J.D. Simpson, Floyd Day, I.H. McKinley, John M. Hodgkin, B.F. Curtis, E.S. Jouett. His wife, who was formerly Miss Emma Johnson, survives him, as does one daughter, Mrs. David T. Matlack. He was born at Mt. Washington, Bullitt county, near Louisville, and moved here in the spring of 1878. He bought the old mill on the corner of Main and Broadway which more than one firm had failed to make a success. He infused new methods into the business and was successful from the start. In a few years he built the modern structure which now graces that corner, made his flour a household word in central and eastern Kentucky and rapidly accumulated wealth. Years ago M.T. McEldowney became associated with him in business and of late years the cares of the large business interest of the firm, especially the details, have been looked after by the latter in a great degree. Mr. Kerr was one of Winchester’s most progressive citizens and nothing that would tend to advance the interests of the city but was sure of a helping hand from him. Although quite a wealthy man he was extremely modest and never obtruded opinions where they were not sought. In his death our city has lost one of its best citizens, the church one of its staunchest supporters and his family a kind and indulgent husband and father.

Will Probated

S.P. Kerr, after providing for his burial expenses and the payment of debts left to his brother, E.E. Kerr, for life a house and lot where he now resides in Louisville; to his brother Thos. F. Kerr, for life, a farm of eighty acres near Elkhart, Texas; to Mrs. Anna Southgate a home for life with descendant’s wife and daughter, and also $300 per year from his estate; to Mary Gay, his colored servant a house to cost not more than $800; the balance of his estate to his wife, Mrs. Emma F. Kerr and daughter, Anna Belle Matlack, jointly, and at his wife’s death it is to go to his daughter; he desires the family to live together and to own the property jointly; D.T. Matlack is named as executor without bond. This will is dated May 7th, 1906. By a codicil of June 14th, 1906, he left to his brothers, Thos. F. Kerr, E.E. Kerr and Jas. W. Kerr each $1,000; to his niece, Mrs. Ella Collis, and Mrs. Cora Heathman, both of Paris, Mo., $500 each; and to the First Presbyterian Church of this city, $1000, to be held in trust and the income to be used for the church. The will says that nothing is left to testator’s brother John D. Kerr, of Versailles, Ill., because he has already given him more than is left to his other brothers; nothing to his sister, Mrs. John S. Crow, because she has plenty and does not need it.

The Winchester Democrat   Tuesday, August 28, 1906

 

New Milling firm

D.T. Matlack, as executor of the estate of S.P. Kerr, has sold the machinery, capital stock, good will, etc., of the Mills at the corner of Main and Broadway to the Winchester Roller Mills, a firm composed of M.T. McEldowney, D.T. Matlack and Wm. Woolcott. The sale did not include the buildings and new buildings will probably be constructed at some point on one of the railroads. This will not be done for some time, however, although the firm may erect steel elevators near the railroad, to handle grain from the cars. At present but little changes will be made.

Ketterer, Fred Startling Revelations

Promised by relatives and friends of Fred Ketterer

Ashland, Ky., – Startling revelations into the management of the Eastern Kentucky Asylum for the insane at Lexington, Ky., are promised by the relatives and friends of Fred Ketterer, who died at the institution in June, and it is alleged that certain employees of the institution will be charged with murder. Ketterer was a resident of this city, and was for years employed in the steel mills here. During the latter part of May he became violent while at his duties in the steel plant, and it was necessary for him to be bound hand and foot while being taken to the asylum. In less than a month after being sent to the asylum Ketterer’s remains were sent to his family in this city, with the information from the asylum officials that he had come to his death as a result of “exhaustion due to acute mania”. This verdict was not approved by the family of Ketterer, especially after his remains arrived here, and marks of violence were visible on his face, and a post-mortem examination was held which disclosed the fact that the man had apparently suffered blows on the back of the head and on various parts of his body, which local physicians claim were sufficient to cause his death.

The Winchester Democrat   Friday, September 21, 1906

 

An Investigation

Into Ketterer case is ordered by the State board of control

Frankfort, Ky., – The state board of control ordered an investigation into the sudden death of Fred Ketterer, of Ashland, at the Lexington insane asylum. President Haly, of the board, issued the following statement: “The state board of control, in special session, has determined to make an investigation of the cause of circumstances attending the death of Fred Ketterer, recently a patient in the Easter asylum for the insane at Lexington. Judge J.R. Morton, of Lexington, has been employed by the board to formulate the method to be used in making the investigation. The board has instructed Judge Morton that its purpose and desire is that the investigation shall be full and complete and that the facts relative to the death of Ketterer be clearly established, without regard to consequences. The result of the investigation, whatever it may be, is at the service of the Fayette county grand jury, which meets in October.”

The Winchester Democrat   Friday, September 28, 1906

 

In Jail for Murder

Sometime ago Fred Ketterer was sent to the Lexington lunatic asylum from Ashland. He was a very strong young man, an iron worker whose insanity was caused by working by day near the hot furnace and sitting up all night with his sick wife. Ketterer was violent and hard to manage in the asylum and in comparatively a short time he died and was sent home for burial. His body was badly bruised and several gashes on the back of the head extended to the bone. An investigation was made by the Grand jury and Fred Pharis, Richard Champion, David Adams and James Clagget, former attendants, were indicted for the murder of Ketterer. Pharis was arrested and placed in jail but the others have left the city and have not been found. Pharis was raised in this county where he has a large number of relatives who will be hard to convince that he deliberately murdered a crazy man while in his charge. The indictment alleges in detail that Ketterer came to his death by being beaten with blunt instruments in the hands of the accused men, who were attendants at the Eastern Kentucky Asylum for the insane, the said Ketterer being at the time a patient at the asylum.

The Winchester Democrat Friday, Oct. 19, 1906

 

Ketterer’s death

Is still the subject of investigation by the Grand jury

Lexington, Ky., – The Grand jury is still investigating the alleged mismanagement of the Eastern Kentucky asylum and the alleged murder of Fred Ketterer, a patient at the institution, whom J. Franklin Wallace charges was murdered by one of the attendants. Several days last week was consumed in the examination of witnesses and the investigation was continued. It is believed the body will conclude the investigation and make a report to the court this week.

The Winchester Democrat   Tuesday, Oct. 23, 1906

 

Five years in the pen

Fred Pharis has been on trial during this week at Lexington for the murder of Fred Ketterer and Wednesday night the trial concluded with a verdict of five years in the penitentiary for manslaughter. Pharis was raised near Ruckersville, this county, and moved to Lexington a few years ago. He secured a place as attendant at the Lunatic Asylum, which he held until recently. Sometime ago Fred Ketterer, of Ashland, was sent to the asylum. He was very violent and in a short time he was sent home dead, the cause of death given as acute mania. On being prepared for burial, the body showed marks of violence, several bad wounds being found on the back of the head. An investigation followed, then indictments, and finally a conviction. The case will doubtless be appealed.

The Winchester Democrat   Friday, October 26, 1906

 

Five Years

For Pharis, convicted of the murder of Fred Ketterer

Lexington, Ky., – Fred Pharis, charged with the murder of Fred Ketterer at the Eastern Kentucky Asylum last June, was convicted of manslaughter by a jury and sentenced to five years in the penitentiary. The verdict was a compromise, as several members held out for a longer term. This was the first of the trials growing out of the asylum scandal, which was exposed by J. Franklin Wallace shortly after the death of Ketterer.

The Winchester Democrat   Tuesday, October 30, 1906

 

Will serve his term

Fred Pharis, formerly of this county, who was sentenced to the penitentiary for five years for manslaughter, in killing a patient at the insane asylum where Pharis was an attendant. He made a motion for a new trial, but withdrew it and was sent to the penitentiary. It is said his friends will prepare a petition for his pardon, but a petition against it will also be filed.

The Winchester Democrat   Friday, November 2, 1906

 

No evidence

To hold Claggett and the asylum attendant is set free

Lexington, Ky., – J.M. Claggett, one of the former asylum attendants charged with the murder of Fred Ketterer, was dismissed by Judge Parker on motion of Commonwealth’s attorney Allen. The evidence introduced to the trials of Fred Pharis and Daniel Adams was not sufficient to convict Claggett. Adams began his term of one year in jail without asking for a new trial and the court will rule on the Pharis motion this week.

The Winchester Democrat   Tuesday, November 6, 1906

 

Suit will be filed

As a sequel to the killing of Fred Ketterer, who died at the Eastern Kentucky Lunatic Asylum in Lexington last June, as the result of injuries alleged to have been inflicted by attendants, a damage suit for $50,000 will in a few days be filed against the Institution by David Ketterer administrator of his deceased brother. It is said the damaged suit will not be against the State of Kentucky, of which the Asylum is one of the charitable institutions, as was at first contemplated, but will be against the Eastern Kentucky Lunatic Asylum as a corporation, its charter expressly stating that it may sue or be sued.

The Winchester Democrat   Friday, November 23, 1906

 

Will sue for $50,000

Lexington, Ky., – David Ketterer, brother of Fred Ketterer, an inmate of the Easter Kentucky Insane asylum, for the fatal pounding of whom one man is now serving a sentence in prison, has instructed Attorney J. Franklin Wallace to begin suit against the institution for $50,000.

The Winchester Democrat   Tuesday, November 27, 1906

 

Big suit filed

Suit for $50,000 damages was filed Thursday at Lexington by the administrator for Fred Ketterer against the State board of Control of Charitable Institutions and Dr. Redwine, Superintendent of the Eastern Asylum, charging that Ketterer was killed by attendants in the asylum.

Petition for pardon

Several years ago Fred Ketterar, of Ashland, patient in the Lexington Insane Asylum died, it is said from injuries inflicted by the attendants. Four of the latter were indicted, and one, Fred Pharis, of this county was sent to the penitentiary for five years. The other prosecutions were delayed and were finally dropped. Pharis served two years and is said to be in bad health, and a petition is being circulated in this county asking for his parole or pardon.

Keyes, Nelson R. DEATH OF JUDGE KEYES

Columbus in Mourning Over the Loss of a Beloved Citizen.

From the Columbus (Ind.) Herald.

As briefly announced in the Herald of Saturday, Judge Nelson R. Keyes died at 3:20 p. m. of that day, after a brief illness. About two weeks ago he was taken with la grippe which soon developed into pneumonia. The Judge’s health for some years has not been robust and a surgical operation still further weakened him, and from this he had not fully recovered when his fatal illness set in. This his system was ill prepared to withstand the in roads of disease which was invited by his weakened condition. Hence from the first symptoms of pneumonia which showed themselves, his case was regarded with the greatest apprehension. Each day the news from his bedside was most eagerly sought, and as the usual unfavorable reports were given men would turn sadly away wit a sight. Then Herald office almost besieged day after day by anxious inquiries who desired the latest information obtainable. Several days prior to his death, his condition made it necessary to exclude all visitors and this made it more difficult to obtain exact information—therefore many errors crept into the reports that were received.   On Friday the Herald reported him as improving in condition, and this is appears was incorrect, as we learned soon after the paper was printed. On Saturday the end came. Nelson r. Keyes was a native of Fayette county, Ky., and was born near Lexington on the 1st day of March, 1849. He lacked but a few weeks of being 48 years old. His boyhood was spent on a farm; he attended the common schools of his locality until his 17th year, when he became a student of the University at Lexington, where he remained during the years of 1866, ’67 and ’68.   At the end of the college year 1868 he began teaching, which pursuit he followed till 1872 during which time he pursued his legal studies, he having chosen the profession of law.   In the summer of that year he came to Columbus, and in August was admitted to the bar. He became the deputy clerk for Mr. S. W. Smith, then clerk of the court. On quitting this position he opened a law office, and began an active practice.   The legal career of Mr. Keyes presents a series of combined successes. I 1884 he was elected Judge of the ninth judicial circuit, and again in 1890 he was re-elected without opposition in either case, in the latter election indeed he had the official endorsement of the Republican party, and in both elections he had received nearly the entire vote of the circuit.   He was appointed to file out the unexpired term of Judge Carr, entering upon his own term in the fall of 1885. Mr. Keyes was married May 25th, 1875 5o Miss Lizzie Mooney, daughter of W. W. and Eliza Mooney, of this place. Four children, all daughters were born to them all of whom with his wife, survive him.

Bar Meeting

A memorial meeting of the bar of the Ninth Indiana Judicial District in honor of Judge Keyes was held this morning at the Courthouse. There was a full attendance of the members from both counties present. Col. Simeon Stansifer presided and Judge John G. Morgan acted as Secretary. The bench which Judge Keyes occupied with so much honor and uprightness was draped with appropriate mourning.   After stating the object of meeting and referring to the deceased in the most feeling terms, Col. Stansifer appointed W. S. Swengle, W. C. Duncan, M. Hacker, W. J. Beck and J. F. Cox as a committee to draft resolutions of respect. He then called on the members to express themselves. Eloquent tributes were paid to the memory of the dead Judge by Judge Hackney, of Shelbyville, William Everroad, C. S. Baker, John C. Orr, W. W. Lambert and Frank L. Norton. Mr. Swengle then red the report of the committee and on his motion and seconded by the warmest eulogies on the part of W. L. Cox, C. F. Remy, C. J. Kolmeyer, Tom E. Davidson, W. J. Beck, Chas. Ardery, and C. N. Spencer the memorial which is as follows was unanimously adopted.

Resolutions of Columbus Bar

The Divine Providence in his infinite wisdom, has called from his labor, Hon. Nelson R. Keyes, judge of the Ninth Judicial Circuit of the State of Indiana, and the members of the bar of said circuit, being now assembled to make a suitable expression of their sorrow for his untimely decease, and of their appreciation of his life and character, as well as their sympathy for his bereaved family.

Resolved, 1st. That they contemplate the death of Judge Keyes with infinite sorrow and with feelings of the deepest grief, but they bow in humble submission to the will of him who doeth all things well, believing and trusting in His mercy and justice, and in that Divine wisdom that shapes all live.

Resolved, 2nd. That the life and character of Judge Keyes were in a life sentence exelimprary and we bear testimony not only to his high Christian character and standing as a citizen, but to his eminent qualities as a jurist. General and urbane in his intercourse with his fellowmen, just honest and considerate in a Judge, pure and upright as a Christian citizen, he adorned every walk of life he entered and every official position that he has held. His attainments as a lawyer and a judge were of a high order, and his honesty and probability were beyond question. He had the confidence of all parties, of all classes and in an exceptional way drew to him each and every member of that bar in the counties of his circuit, not only by reason of the respect which his abilities inspired, but because of love and affection his personal attributes called forth. As a Judge he observed the constitutional requirements to administer justice.

Resolved, 3rd. That to the stricken wife and children, to the father and mother, to those to whom he was near and dear, we express our sincerest sympathy for the loss of this husband, and father, the brother and son, and while not seeking to intrude on the deep grief and sorrow of the afflicted ones, we send this memorial of our love and sympathy.

Resolved, 4th. That a copy of these resolutions be furnished the family of our deceased brother, and that they be published in each of the county papers.

Resolved, 5th. That the members attend the funeral in a body. Wilson S. Swengle, Marshal Hacker, W. S. Duncan, W. J. Beck, J. F. Cox.

Mr. Everroad then announced that he and Mr. Davidson had taken it upon themselves to procure a handsome floral testimonial, which in behalf of the bar, was tendered to the family of the deceased. On motion of Mr. Beck the meeting adjourned and the members of the bar marched to the Keyes’ residence and took a last and sorrowful look at the remains of him whom they honored and revered.

Letter From Anderson Percifield.

The following letter, which was received by Mr. Hacker from Hon. Anderson Percifield, of Nashville, and was intended to be read at the bar meeting came too late. “Your said message announcing the death of our dear judge, reached me at 4 p.m. I regret that circumstances are such as to prevent me from attending our bar meeting tomorrow at 10 a.m. also the funeral at 2 p.m.. No one regrets more than I the untimely death of Judge Keyes, save-those whom I know were more dear than life to him. In 1878 I was introduced to Judge Keyes at the age of our little court-house by Judge Hester as one of the rising and bright young lawyers of Columbus. From that time I have always been one of his warmest friends. His great natural powers, brightened by education and experience, placed in among the foremost jurist of the state. Truly, he was a much of mighty power, both as a jurist and an advocate. While circuit judge he presided with dignity and decided with honesty and impartiality. He had the confidence of our entire people. His column is broken his life work but half finished, and yet by his honest, kind and true life he has erected a monument in hearts of the people that will last forever. If I was there I could but mourn with those who mourn; weep with those who weep.”   I will unite with you all in every effort to praise and cherish the memory of as good and great a man as Judge Nelson R. Keyes. Yours, Fraternally “Anderson Percifield.”

 

K. of St. J. Resoluction

At a special meeting of St. Bartholomews’ Commandery No. 199 Knights of St. John, held Sunday, January 17, the following resolutions were unanimously adopted: WHERAS, It hath pleased Divine Providence to call to another world the sprit of the late Judge N. R. Keyes, and WHEREAS, Judge Keyes was always a staunch friend of Catholic organizations. Therefore be it

Resolved. That we, as Catholics and citizens, deplore the demise of Judge Keyes, as a great loss; that we entertain for his memory, sentiments of highest respect, on account of his noble qualities, for he was a man of broad conception and of a compassionate heart; a faithful husband and loving father, whose bright examples brought the blessings of Got upon his household; a Christian without bigotry; a patriotic citizen, honored and respected by his followers; and above all an upright, Judge, whose character was without a blemish and whose integrity could not be impeached. Sworn to administer the laws impartially, he dealt justice to all who approached his fair tribunal, and now that he has appeared before that august Tribunal, from whose decision there is no appeal, we trust that he has heard from the lips of the just Judge that command which should be a balm to the bleeding hearts of his loved ones on earth. “Enter thou into the joys of thy Lord.”

Resolved. That these resolutions be spread upon the minutes of this association, and that a copy be presented to the family of the deceased, and that a copy also be furnished each of our local papers for publication. John M. Reilly, Paul H. Hubbard, Frank H. Brockman, Committee.

Held over

The examining trial of Nannie Johnson, the negro woman who, on Thursday last, cut to death with a razor, Lula Keywood, was held before Judge Evans Thursday. The trouble arose over a sewing machine owned by a third party, which was at the home of the prisoner. The Keywood woman tried to take it away and in the row which ensued, struck the prisoner over the head with a chair before the latter cut her. The Johnson woman, as Nannie Burnside, graduated from the colored schools of this city and is a very intelligent woman. She was one of the principals in a horse-whipping case a few years ago. Judge Evans held her over in $200 bond to await the action of Circuit court.

Capt. Phil. C. Kidd, who died at Lexington last Friday, aged 58, was among the most prominent of Kentucky horsemen, chiefly as a buyer, seller and general dealer in both harness horses and thoroughbreds. He was long connected with Col. R. E. Edmondson, former manager of Tattersalls in this city, and the firm conducted many important sales, in days gone by, here and in Kentucky. Capt. Kidd was a fluent and able auctioneer, and wielded the gavel on two occasions of peculiar historic interests. Twenty-two years ago—in June, 1875—he acted as auctioneer at the annual sale of trotting yearlings held at Woodburn Farm, Woodford county, Kentucky, upon which occasion he knocked down a yearling chestnut filly by Harold, dam Miss Russell, to Capt. Jas. Bugher, of Cincinnati, O., for $250. This filly afterward became the renowned mare Maud S., 2:08¾, queen of the turf for eleven years. Fourteen years later—in November, 1889—he conducted a sale in Chicago, at which he knocked down a bay yearling filly by Patronage, dam Atlanta, to Morris J. Jones, of David City, Neb., for $775. This filly was Alix, 2:03¾, to-day the trotting champion.—Chicago Record

Killen, John Killing at Stanton

At Stanton, Powell county, Tuesday night at 9 o’clock, Town Marshal John Morton, shot an instantly killed John Killen, a log merchant from the mountains. The story of the killing as received here is that Killen, who had disposed of a number of logs to William Chester, an extensive dealer in lumber, came to the town Monday afternoon of for the purpose of effecting a settlement with Chester.

They disagreed as to the totals, Killen claiming that Chester was his debtor several hundred dollars more than the dealer had stated. Chester refused to recognize Killen’s claim, whereupon the latter left the place saying that he would have his money or Chester’s life. He consulted with several friends and the party adjourned to a bar-room, where thay all got drunk. They then went in search of Chester and meeting him in the main street renewed the quarrel.

Chester seeing that Killen was drunk, attempted to lead him, whereupon the mountaineer drew the log dealer to him and drawing his revolver, said: “G-d d—m you: I’ll settle this account here and now.” As he leveled his revolver on Chester, Town Marshal Morton, stepped between the two men, and caught Killen’s arm.   Killen freed himself and backing a few paces, fired at Morton. The ball missed its mark, and the next moment found Killen cold in death, Morton having shot him immediately above the right eye. Chester was unarmed, and left the scene of the difficulty as Killen fired at Morton.

Died, at his home at Right Angle, Ky., Tuesday morning, March 26th, after a short but very painful duration of a complication of diseases, A. J. Kimbrell, aged about 72 years. In his death the community has lost a valued citizen, the family a devoted husband and father. He had been the valued corresponded for The Democrat from Right Angle for a number of years, and was also postmaster at that place. His funneral was preached on the following day to one of the largest gatherings of people that have been gathered together in this community for some time considering the short notice of his death by Eld. Wm. Rupard and a splendid eulogy written by R. R. Perry, P. M. at Winchester, was also read after which his remains were buried on the hill overlooking his old house. We join a host of   friends in sympathizing with the bereaved family. May their lives be as bright as the life of this husband and father is the wish of the correspondent.

Mrs. Jane Kingsbury died at Lynn, Conn., recently in apparent poverty.   The belief that she was a miser led to a search in the old broken down house in which she had passed her days.   A thorough overhauling of the trunks and beds discovered $6,000 in coins and bills; fourteen thousand dollars in gold, $20 pieces were found in an old sock. A bank book representing $10,000 more was also found. Mrs. Kingsbury was the mother-in-law of ex-Governor Simon Bolivar Buckner, and his daughter, Mrs. Morris Belknap, therefore falls heir to the wealth. There are no other heirs.

It is said that he had two living in Winchester, and besides Sarah Gilkey he had another in this city, Mollie Kinkead, to whom he had been lawfully married. She had been sick for some time and upon hearing of his being killed she became much worse and died in a few hours. This is the second man that has been killed about Sarah Gilkey. About seven years ago her husband Bob Gilkey was killed on H. T. Wilson’s place on Cane Ridge by Eroch Fields. The latter had been too intimated with the Gilkey woman and when her husband attacked him about it they fought and Gilkey was killed. Fields was acquitted.

One of our oldest and best known citizens passes away

Mrs. Mary Kissinger, one of this city’s oldest and best known citizens, died Friday afternoon at one o’clock at the home of Miss McEwan, on Buckner street, where she     had resided for some time, aged about eighty-one years. Just a month ago she was stricken with a fatal malady, and on account of the infirmities incident to her age, she had been growing weaker ever since, and her death at the hour stated was a fitting end to a glorious Christian life. With that indomitable energy which characterized her living, who began the final contest, but yielded to the inevitable, going quietly to rest with that perfect calmness and peace that typifies the end of a true, Christian life. Mrs. Kissinger was a sweet mannered, motherly woman, whose Christian life and character was symbolical of consistency and goodness. She was a devout member of the Catholic church and her funeral took place from St. Joseph’s church at eight o’clock Saturday morning with services by Rev. W.B. Ryan and the remains were taken to Lexington for interment beside her husband who died about thirty years ago. Her maiden name was Murphy, and she is survived by one brother, Mr. John Murphy, of Mt. Sterling, and numerous relatives in this city.

Knight, _____                         AA TO HANG

The Death Penalty Given to Dillard Rainey.

The Murder of Aaron Adams to Be Avenged. The Majesty of the Law Vindicated.

Not in a spirit of vengeance; not with an outburst of wrath nor with the savage senselessness of mob violence; but with the calm, dignified majesty of the law has the blood of Aaron Adams, which cries from the ground, been avenged, or will be when the sentence of the law is executed. A thrill of horror went through our people when the causeless, cruel murder was committed, and when the news spread Saturday that the death penalty had been awarded the murderer, there was a verdict of assent almost universal, and the only regret was that Matt Rainey, the prisoner’s father, did not receive the same sentence.

The crime was a most atrocious one, and with no mitigating circumstances. Matt Rainey and James Henry had differences concerning a piece of land near the mouth of Upper Howard’s Creek, and Henry had placed Frank Haggard in possession as a tenant. Rainey hauled the fence from around Haggard’s garden leaving it open to the stock. Haggard hauled the rails back again and a quarrel on the 13th of last May in which Rainey shot Haggard inflicting a wound that it was thought would prove fatal. Mrs. Haggard saw Aaron Adams passing along the road and asked him to go for a doctor.   Adams went after Dr. T. S. Allen, who lived near, and returning with the physician half an hour later, he was met by Matt Rainey and Dillard Rainey, father and son. Matt was armed with a gun and Dillard with a pistol.   The former raised his gun to shoot Adams, but was prevented by Dr. Allan. With an oath he told his son to shoot and the latter did so. As Adams sank down pierced with a number of balls, Matt Rainey savagely tried again to shoot him.

Deputy Sheriff Eperson was in the neighborhood and arrested Matt Rainey at once. Dillard escaped, although the officers once got close enough to shoot at him. He went through the mountains and was finally arrested at Roanoke, Va., under an assumed name. Matt Rainey was tried last fall and got a life sentence. He took an appeal and since has been in jail here. Two or three feeble attempts were made to mob him here last Spring but they lacked leadership. Since he has been in jail he has incurred the ill-will of the officers and fellow prisoners all whom concur in saying he is the meanest man with whom they have ever had dealings.

The trial of Dillard Rainey began last Tuesday. The evidence closed Thursday at noon and was argued until the next morning when it was given to the jury, which brought in a verdict of guilty and fixing the death penalty the next day. When the prisoner heard it he turned deathly pale and seemed almost overcome.   He soon recovered and was taken back to jail cursing the jury and vowing that he would never be hung. Neither of the prisoners have ever shown any remorse for the poor widow and the six helpless children.

This will make the second sentence pronounced by Judge Scott, the other being the negro Will Taylor, who was hung for the murder of Squire Doty, in Madison county a year or two ago.

If Rainey is hung it will make the fourth legal hanging in the county, and the first white man to be hung.

Many years ago Jesse Winn, a negro, was hung near where Col. R. N. Winn’s residence now stands, for the murder of Wm. Emerson, a white man, who owned him or had him hired.

In August, 1839, a young negro named Knight was hung on the Lexington pike near F. H. Dudley’s.   He belonged to Mr. Morris who lived on Stoner and had committed a rape on a little white girl.

In April, 1841, a negro man, belonging to Daniel Spar, broke into a house and disemboweled his wife.   The latter got well, but the negro was hung for housebreaking. The negro woman belonged to Geo. Anderson and her assailant was hung near the far end of the C. and O. trestle on the side of Poynterville.

In November, 1850, Thomas Nichols killed his master, Fred B. Nichols, at a rock quarry on the Lexington pike. He was hung about Christmas of the same year. The late Wm. Simpson was Sheriff at the time, and not liking the job of hanging the negro, he employed Marsh Lawrence to tie the rope. A year or two later Marsh Lawrence was killed by his brother, Jack Lawrence. The latter fled to Missouri, but was caught, brought back and sentenced to be hung. He was the first white man in the county to receive the death sentence, but was finally pardoned by Gov. Powell.

About seventeen years ago, Ben. Plunkett was lynched, being hung to a tree in the Courthouse yard, the charge being an attempt assault on Miss Annie Ball, now Mrs. Bradford. In the fall of 1895 Bob Haggard was hung from the bridge on the Muddy Creek pike for a similar assault on Miss Elkin of near Ford.

No motion has yet been made for a new trial, but this will be done.

Since the death penalty has been given to Dillard, his father says he does not wish a new trial, but is inclined to accept the life sentence given him last fall. The general opinion is that if he should secure a new trial he would also be hung.

Knight, John The most remarkable and notorious family that Alabama ever produced was the Knight family, that lived three miles from St. Stephens.” Said Geo. R. McKee, of Mobile, as the Lindell yesterday, “John Knight was the father of twenty-eight children. He was a fine specimen of physical manhood.   He stood 6 feet 7 in stocking feet, and his voice was like that of a lion’s roar. His wife, the mother of those twenty-eight children, was less than 5 feet in height, and weighed about 100 pounds. Standing side by side, her head scarcely reached his vest pocket. They were both industrious, and when their children got old enough to talk they were put to work. There was no loafing or indolence tolerated on the Knight plantation. Everyone had to rise with the dawn of day. There were eighteen boys and ten girls. The males inherited their father’s physical powers, the females their mother’s diminutive size. The boys had short and simple given names, such as Tom, Lon, John, and the like; the girls were loaded down with names which might perhaps, have had something to do with their growth. For instance, the oldest girl was named Mary Ann Jane Sarah Ann Elizabeth Teebona Smith Knight. They called her “Tee” for short. Sam was the oldest son. He was a holy terror. He would steal from his neighbors like a coon would rob a corn patch. He was finally landed in jail. In prison at Butler the rats attached him one night and he died from the effects of their bite. Later on Lon became a robber, and now every one of the eighteen boys are either in the Penitentiary or are wanted there. Six year ago Mrs. Knight died. Four months later old Knight married a widow by the name of Givens.   She was possessed of sixteen children.   Six boys and ten girls. The boys joined the church shortly after their mother’s second marriage. A year later the Misses Givens had husbands. The Misses Knight remain single. A Tree fell on Mrs. Knight last summer, and killed her. Her husband was kicked to death by a mule just before Christmas”-St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

Knuff, Armand

(aka. Van Kenuff)

On Sunday afternoon a man died somewhat suddenly at the Winchester House. He was a stranger in the city, but had been drinking heavily most of the time. Coroner Boone was notified and summoned the following jury; S. T. Martin, Pat Shea, Phil Hodgkin, P. B. Dudley, Jas Berry and Sam Hastings. From the evidence it appears that his name was Armand Knuff of Van Kenuff, and had been working on the K. U. railroad. He was about 63 years old and evidently had come of good family. He had several scars on his body, which he had said were received in the German army. The jury returned a verdict of death from excessive drinking.

Knut, Mrs. S. P. Construction Of An Old Statute

Owensboro, Ky., Feb. 22

Judge W. T. Owen decided the case of S. P. Knut against Lily Barrett Knut, an infant, in which the deceased wife’s interest in the celebrated Bon Harbor farm of 2,000 acres is given to the husband. Two months after making her will the wife gave birth to the daughter and died.   The court held that as no mention was made of the child, the omission was intentional. This is the first time that this section of the statutes, now 100 years old, has been construed.

Kofoury, Rosa Syrian woman dies

As the result of a willful operation at Morehead by a woman in a neighboring town,   Rosa Kofoury, an unmarried Syrian woman, aged twenty-three, living at Winchester,       is at St. Joseph’s hospital in this city in a precarious condition. A second operation was performed here last night in an effort to save her life, but it is not yet known whether she will survive. The first operation was performed about twelve days ago by a woman whose name is not known, but kept secret until the officers of the law take action. Blood poisoning developed shortly afterwards and the Syrian woman, in a critical condition, was brought to this city for treatment. A second operation was deemed necessary to save her life, and this was performed last night. Rosa Kofoury, with her sister, travels from town to town selling fancy needlework. Little is known of them. – Lexington Herald Leader on Tuesday – The woman died at the Lexington hospital on Tuesday night.

Serious charge

W.M. Akel arrested as being accessory to the murder of Rosa Kofourney

W.M. Akel, a Syrian, of this city, was arrested in Lexington and lodged in jail on a charge of being accessory to the murder of Rosa Kofourney, the young Syrian girl who died in a hospital of that city last week as a result of a criminal operation. The operation was performed by a negro woman of Mt. Sterling, who has so far succeeded in evading arrest. Before her death the Kofourney woman said that Akel was responsible for her condition. She is said to have left all her money to him. Both Akel and the Kofourney woman came to this city about a year ago. It was generally supposed that the woman was his sister. Akel opened a fruit and vegetable stand on North Main street, and, for a while did considerable business. His trade became slack and three or four months ago he made an assignment. Some weeks ago, in connection with a man from Mt. Sterling, he purchased the Imperial Bakery, on North Main street and has been conducting same.

Left a will

Rosa Kofoury, the Syrian girl, formerly of this city, who died in a Lexington hospital as the result of a criminal operation, left a will devised her property to William Akel, the man who was arrested as being the cause of her trouble, and was discharged for lack of evidence.

Kohlhass, Edgar S. Death of E. S. Kohlhass

Although not unexpected, it was a shock when the words, “Ed. Kohlhass is dead,” was passed from mouth to mouth Tuesday evening. He had long been a sufferer from consumption and for months had kept up by sheer force of will power. Although he fought against the dread destroyer with all the force of his indomitable will, yet when the end came he met the grim reaper with perfect calmness, reposing in the promises of the Savior to whom he had committed his eternal interests and believing that death was but to another and higher life. He was a man with an exceedingly high standard of manhood and hated all that was mean and low. The one feature of his character that stood out most prominently was his love for his mother, whom he almost worshipped. He had long been her chief stay and support, and for her he worked as long as he was able to stand. He had the confidence of all who knew him and at the time of his death was City Clerk. During his last sickness the duties of this office were performed by W. H. Garner and Mayor John Garner and the pay for same given to Mr. Kohlhass. He believed in the brotherhood of man as well as the Fatherhood of God, and was a highly esteemed member of Hickman Lodge, I. O. O. F. And Ivanhoe Lodge K. of P., and was buried with the honors of these orders. The Fire Department, of which he was also a member, and the Mayor and City Council attended the funeral in a body.

The funeral was preached by Rev. Richard French yesterday morning at the Methodist church, assisted by Rev. H. G. Henderson, the pastor, and Eld. W. S. Keene, of the Christian church, and his remains were interred in the cemetery.

The floral offerings were profuse and of the most beautiful designs. The fraternal orders, the City Council, the firemen and a number of private friends sent appropriate floral emblems.

The Democrat, with whom Eddie was always an especial favorite, extends its sincerest sympathy to the bereaved family.

Resolved, That we extend to his devoted mother, sisters and brothers our sincere sympathy in the grievous loss they have sustained and commend them to the Supreme Chancellor of the universe for comfort in their distress.

Resolved, That as a mark of our love and esteem for the departed; our Castle Hall be appropriately draped in mourning and that the members of this lodge wear the usual memorial badge for thirty days.

Mrs. Catherine M. Kohlhass peacefully passes to eternal rest Sunday afternoon

Mrs. Catherine M. Kohlhass died at her home in this city, Sunday afternoon, of acute indigestion, aged eighty-six years. Four years ago she fell and broke her hip, but up to that time she had been remarkably active for one of her age. Before her marriage she was Miss Bowren, and one brother, Alfred Bowren, of Newport, is the only survivor of the family. Her husband, Henry W. Kohlhass, died a number of years ago. She is survived by one son, Al Kohlhass, and four daughters, Mrs. Mary Bennett, Mrs. Emma Humston, Mrs. Jas. R. Broadhurst and Mrs. E.E. Hughes, all of this city. She was sweet and amiable in disposition and ever ready to do what she could for the comfort and blessings of others. The charm of her rare courtesy and sunny temperament impressed even casual acquaintances, and though an invalid for many years, she was always ready to see her friends, who found in her unusually bright and pleasing presence sympathetic, kindness and love. The funeral will be held at the Methodist Church this morning at 10 o’clock, services conducted by Revs. O.J. Chandler, of this city, and J.L. Weber, of Mt.

Kulp, Abram Died—Abram Kulp, one of the head men of the community of Shakers in Mercer county, died last week from injuries sustained by falling from his horse. The Harrodsburg Democrat relates a very touching incident in connection with the death of Mr. Kulp. For many years he had ridden his faithful old horse, Pilot, about the farm. When he fell, the intelligent animal seemed to realize that something serious had happened to the master, and stood nickering in distress and refused to be comforted. The day of the funeral Pilot was hitched to the wagon to draw the remains to the grave. The horse seemed to know what was required of him and refused to draw his master to the spot where he would forever by hidden from his view. It was the first time anyone had ever known Pilot to refuse to respond when called upon.
