One I copied by hand and the other i printed from the kennett Mo. newspaper. I am having some big health issues so my brain isn't always working good right now but i will give you the drift of the two articles. The one in MO, Cape Gerarde?? went as such., two men came to town and became intoxicated and had had to be contained/ One was Charley Bell and the other Jeff Hushstettler. Both were rowdy and so had to be contained in a cell.Mr.Bell set his bed clothes on fire and died before they could reach him. They said he had done the same in a jail in Kennett. Mo and they got tired of messing with him so they discharged him to go on home but this time they didnt find him in time. the second article from Kennett, MO. said tw0 men came to town got drunk, got thrown in the calaboos, set his bedclothes afire and they turned him loose and he went home. he thought it would work that way again but they found him to late and he died before being! rescued. Uriah Horn is Rachels father, she had sisters amd brothers. the horn family came from Estill co.Ky, they have alot on the horn family. I will be glad to assist you any way i can, it may just take me a little longer then it used to take. Rachel Horn ended up marrieing a pat barrett and then a george V. Watkins. Charlies mother married rachels father. I may have messed that up but on a good morning with less aches and pains i will try to copy some of my info and send it to you. I dont have a fax hooked up yet. but isnt this just so much fun learning about our family of years ago and even papers do document it. I was told that Charlie Bell and Rachel Horn had a two room cabin and that ment they were people of money because they had two rooms instead of the usual one. Good luck and keep bugging me till i get you the info. you wont make me mad. just at myself because i know how much fun it is to find out new info. GV Watkins married Ida Mary Dunkin and that w! as the grandmother of My husband at the time. Take care and have a gre at day. Mary
