===================================================================== Match: Bowles Source: [email protected] From: Sandi Gorin <[email protected]> Subject: [KYBARREN] GLASGOW WEEKLY TIMES TIDBITS 3 Jan 1898 articles continued: Henry WILLIAMS of Bowling Green - worthy young Democrat elected Enrolling Clerk of the KY House on the 8th ballot. V R SHELTON of Metcalfe Co elected Sgt-at-arms of the Senate; Walter FLIPPIN of Monroe Co elected Doorkeeper of the House; R E McCANDLESS of Metcalfe Co elected Assistant Cloak-room Keeper and Eugene PAGE of Edmonton - no position shown. Thomas P DICKINSON became a partner in TRIGG's Bank on the first of the month. Everybody in Barren Co knows him; his business life has been banking; has no superior as a bank officer. His friends congratulate him. The attention of the authorities is called to the condition of the gutters around the court-house yard, which, we understand, are to be allowed to remain as they are. By all means something should be done to prevent the water standing in these gutters, as they are not only unsightly, but unhealthy as well. When the work not being done on the court-house yard is completed it will be all the more noticeable. Glasgow ought to have enough pride to see that this nuisance is removed. Bruce DOHONEY, the only son of Judge R B DOHONEY died at his father's residence on Beaver Creek, five miles from town Tuesday morning between 8 and 9 o'clock. At about 8, his mother heard him coughing, but on going to his room a short time afterwards she found him dead; she was the only other person at the house when he died. His death was sudden but not unexpected; he had been suffering several years with hypertrophy of the heart; 31 years of age; a young man of splendid attainments, solid worth and tried honor. He will be greatly missed by his associates in business and social circles. Burial took place yesterday at 3 pm in the family burying ground at Edmonton. F M BREEDING is again located at his old stand on Upper Depot Street; 1/2 block from the public square in a large new and commodious stable.
