Pitched Battle Between Well Armed Kentucky Factions is Hourly Feared. Article Text: Lexington, July 21.--Reports received here state that members of the HALL and THORNBERRY feud factions are camped in the mountains in Knox county an a battle between them is hourly feared. 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. The reopening of the feud was caused by the killing of Richard HALL and John THORNBERRY from ambush a few days ago. THORNBERRY had married into the HALL family and his clansmen had sworn revenge. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ KY-Old-News ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ NewspaperAbstracts.com - Finding our ancestors in the news!
