Eight of Them Died and Were Buried in a Row in Kentucky Cemetery. Article Text: Louisville, July 2.--The best cook and prettiest woman in Taylor county is Mrs. AYRES, who, although but 33 years old, has been married nine times and never been divorced. Her ninth marriage took place a few days ago. Her full name is Matilda Jane HARKINS-ELLET-BOARDS-WYCKTON-LOWMAN-HUDSONO-DUNMENIL-AYRES. AYRES. The new mate's name is Mason AYRES and if Mason AYRES should happen to join the colony of husbands on the mountain side two miles southwest of Lone Star, there would be others pleading for the opportunity to be No. 10. Up above the "Washfoot Baptist" church in the hills near Lone Star is the graveyard and the row of stones side by side, bear inscriptions that tell briefly the story of Mattie AYRES and her wedded life. For she has buried the eight husbands side by side, with graves just alike, with head and footstones in exact duplicate. The girl's romance commenced when she was fifteen years old and eloped with and married Morg ELLET. She saw Morg ELLET at Campbellsville one night when he played a solo with the Silver Cornet band and her heart was won. Eleven months after the elopement Morg went hunting. While he was sitting on a fence his rifle slipped, the hammer struck a rail, the bullet pierced his brain. Mattie ELLET remained a widow ten months when her heart went out to Stephen BOARDS, who was elderly, kindly and wealthy, owner of a large farm and much timber land. Everybody said she had married him for his money, and hated him accordingly. One day, within seven weeks of the wedding, as BOARDS was riding back toward Campbellsville after foreclosing a mortgage, he was shot from ambush and killed, and Mattie ELLET BOARDS became a wealthy widow. Again a swarm of wooers came around. But not one of them gained any advantage until Ed WYCKTON came from down about Gadberry in Adair county, where he had been operating an illicit still. One day, after they had been married for eight months, the revenue officers made a raid, and in the battle which followed, Mattie saw her husband throw up his hands and drop dead with a bullet in his brain. Widowed three times in as many years, Mattie HARKINS went back to live at home, near Lone Star, building a pretty home on the site of the rude house from which she eloped as a school girl. Two years later she married Nat LOWMAN who had been one of her girlhood lovers. Nat lived just two years, then died of consumption. She buried him beside the others and mourned for nine months then became the bride of Andy LOWMAN, Nat's brother. They lived happily for four years and one child, Mattie's first--came to bless the union. Then a tree fell the wrong direction as Andy was chopping it down. But eleven months after her fifth bereavement Manuel HUDSON came by chance to the home. There was no handsomer man in all Kentucky and he had been away to college, and was the "singingest" and guitar "pickingest" swain around the county. He won Mattie's love by his kindness to her little girl baby and six months after they met they were married. HUDSON was shot in a row at Frankfort the next year while lobbying in the legislature for a timber land bill, and one year later his widow was led to the altar by Pony DUNMENIL, a man from the blue grass, who met her at Frankfort when, as Mrs. HUDSON, she attended a session of the state legislature. DUNMENIL took her to live at Harrodsburg, but that same fall he was struck with heart disease and fell dead in the lobby of the Gibson house in Cincinnati. This did not stop the flocking of bachelors and widowers near Lone Star, and the unmarried girls made up their minds that the handsome multi-widow was stealing all the valuable men. Mason AYRES, a young saw-miller, was the ninth man to win her heart, and although they have been married for nearly two weeks he still remains happy and hearty and Mattie AYRES' "waiting list" is beginning to get discouraged. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ KY-Old-News ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ NewspaperAbstracts.com - Finding our ancestors in the news!

Article Text: Mrs. KEMPER, wife of Jasper KEMPER, died Sunday morning, June 27, under peculiar circumstances, which are as follows: About three months since her babe was taken sick and lingered for some time. A few minutes before it died, she gave it a dose of medicine by direction of the attending physician, and after it died she took up an idea that she had killed her child. Her friends tried to persuade her that the idea was erroneus, but all to no avail. The thought worked upon her mind until she became frantic. Her only desire was to die, and she tried on several occasions to destroy her life, but was prevented by her faithful husband, who kept strict watch over her. She refused to talk from the beginning, and had not taken a mouthful of food for forty-five days before she was relieved by death. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ KY-Old-News ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ NewspaperAbstracts.com - Finding our ancestors in the news!

Owner Denis Habit was Responsible for Demise. Article Text: Louisville, Ky., Sept. 10.--"Checkers," an 8-year-old English prize bulldog owned by Sam F. FISHER, of this city, will not greet his old friends at th Kentucky State Fair this year. "Checkers" died to-night. The dog has been exhibited at county fairs throughout Kentucky and had taken many ribbons, but had never captured a "blue" at the State Fair, although the FISHER entry caused the judges to scratch their heads on more than one occasion. "Checkers" had only one vice, according to FISHER. He chewed tobacco, but "only in a mild form," FISHER asserts, however, that tobacco chewing had nothing to do with the dog's death. "He was just worn out from travelling," FISHER said, adding: "He's been across the country dozens of times with me, and a more enthusiastic motorist never lived." ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ KY-Old-News ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ NewspaperAbstracts.com - Finding our ancestors in the news!

Article Text: Glasgow, Ky., Nov 11.--Robert BROWN was arrested under the most thrilling circumstances this afternoon. Last night BROWN shot and killed his father-in-law, Louis MCCLELLAN, and severely wounded his mother -in-law and sister-in-law. BROWN had made both demands and threats on the MCCLELLAN family. After shooting all around their home last night he escaped. To the surprise of all the survivors and the wounded relatives he returned to the MCCLELLAN home this morning with the avowed purpose of finishing the slaughter. Today he shot Mrs. MCCLELLAN and her son and returned to his farm and fortified himself in his barn. Officers and a large posse surrounded the barn and over 100 shots were exchanged, BROWN opening fire on their approach. He continued the fusilade till his ammunition was exhausted. Then the posse proceeded to light matches to torches with which to fire the barn. BROWN threw his two guns out, also his two pistols, and jumped, immediately holding up both hands! and begging piteously for protection. He was immediately brought to this city by Deputy Marshal BAILEY and others and was very nervous, as threats of lynching were yelled at him all along the way into town. In the fight at the barn, which continued from morning till afternoon, Sheriff BARLOW was shot trough the hand and Deputy John NEICE through the ear. Several others were slightly wounded. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ KY-Old-News ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ NewspaperAbstracts.com - Finding our ancestors in the news! TM http://www.NewspaperAbstracts.com

Members of BENGE-MARTIN Factions Shake Hands; No Longer Fear Ambushes on Mountain Paths. Article Text: Manchester, Ky., Jan. 22.--Members of the BENGE-MARTIN feud factions, 73 of whom made peace and shook hands in the circuit court room here late yesterday, returned to their homes today and for the first time in more than a year residents of the little Goose Creek section were able to travel the mountain roads without fear of being shot from ambush. Dread lest their homes be burned or riddled with bullets during the darkness also was gone from the hearts of many mountaineers. Peace came unexpectedly at the close of a four-day hearing on peace bonds, more than 100 of the clansmen having been summoned into court, while 50 national guardsmen were on duty in and around the court house. Judge Hiram JOHNSON after placing 16 of the men under bonds ranging from $500 to $3,000 lectured them, urging them "to act like men, shake hands and become friendly neighbors again." Then almost before the spectators could realize what was taking place, the line in rival camps in the court room was crossed and following the example set by the grey-bearded leaders the feudists were clasping each others hands and calling each other by their first names. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ KY-Old-News ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ NewspaperAbstracts.com - Finding our ancestors in the news!

It is said that the Whiteburg militia company has been ordered to be in readiness to go to the scene of trouble. Each side has about forty men and all are armed. Clate JONES, leader of the JONES faction, says he will go to the relief of the THORNBERRYS if they need him.
