A barbed comment about barbed wire from Judge H.C. Baker About Barbed Wire: A common sight in Adair Co., KY By JD Gee Kristie Keene's up close and personal photo of barbed wire brought to mind the quote attributed by Judge H.C. Baker to William Stewart (1830-1904) upon Stewart's inspection of the first such fence built in Adair County: "Well, it may keep the stock inside from getting out, and the stock outside from getting in, but my judgment is that the wires can never be put close enough together to the man out of h--- who would build such a fence."A few months after Mr. Stewart's passing in 1904, Melvin White, an Adair County native who frequently contributed to the News from his home in North Carolina, wrote somewhat fondly of Mr. Stewart that "His wit was scathing and his satire skinning." -JD Gee This story was posted on 2010-07-27 09:11:00
