Barbee's Gallery of History at his barbecue restaurant at 824 Campellsville RD, Columbia, KY. By Jim The Lindsey Wilson bell was a gift, presented to the school the first week classes were held on the hill the week of January 4th, 1904. "Mr. George Fletcher, who was the contractor in building the college and dormitory, left for his home in Leitchfield last Thursday morning... Mr. Fletcher's deportment in this place during his stay for a half a year or more has been that of a gentleman and his work has given entire satisfaction. He has made many friends in this place and in Adair county, and he leaves Columbia with many regrets. Before leaving he presented the college with a bell, and hopes that business will again call him to this place that he may hear it ring."The brief story above appeared in an article found n the Wednesday, January 13, 1904 Adair County News (as transcribed in "From Hope to Hilltop: The Establishment of the Lindsey Wilson Training School."
