From: [email protected] (Betty Sellers) Cadiz REcord September 1913 September 1913 Pleasant Trip To Lexington EDITOR RECORD - As so many of my relatives have asked me to tell them of my trip to Lexington, I thought I would take this method so all could hear through your paper. W arrived at night August 11th. Half of our relatives met us at the depot and, oh, what a joyful welcome they gave us. The first day we spent with cousin Bennie Hayes, and on Monday and Tuesday at cousin Edna Moore's. From there to my mother's old home. I dark from the same spring my mother drank from until she married and moved here. Saw my great grandmother Goodwin's home in Lexington, a large brick house over a hundred years old, but looks like a new house now. Third day with cousin Clyde Thomas, Fourth day to fair and saw a cow that weight 1950 pounds and a hog 23 months old weight 950 pounds. Friday, fifth day with Mrs. Richard Meredith. Saturday to fair again. Spent one night with Mrs. Warren Veal and one night with Mrs. Vergia Boatwright. All of these families were uncle Alex Haye's children - my mother's brother. We saw all through St. Joseph hospita; saw Henry Clay's home, oldest home in Lexington, kept so nice. Saw Henry Clay's monument and vaultt at cemetery. Saw Breckenridge's and John Morgan's monuments. Uncle Alex hayes fought under Morgan's command. Sunday the last day we planned to have a Hayes reunion and all go to the Blue Grass Park. So every one carried a lunch basket filled to over flowing. This was our sweetest day. Twenty three of us, all Hayes blood and first and second cousins, except Mr. E. W. Tuggle, and he was grand father of Bennie Hayes' children. So we could not have had such a great time if he was not there. The last night was Sunday night and although tired and sad at parting next morning we all from park to Christian church and heard such a good sermon. Next morning we had all a sad good-bye, with hope to meet again. Timothy C. Hoskins Free Leonard Peltier !!!!!!!!!!!
