Going to a home above Appropriately reverent comments follow this article. -EW By JIM The following item appeared in the Adair County News almost 112 years ago and is presented as found, verbatim, without comment. I leave it to the Great Minds of Adair County (TM) to parse the words and ponder the meaning and veracity thereof. Mr. Frank Cochran, of the firm Cochran & Daisy, Lebanon, told us yesterday that he had a friend in his city who came by his office each week to read The News, stating that he wanted to see who had gone to heaven from Adair County since the former issue. Well, we wish to inform the said friend of Cochran's that Adair County is one of the best places of earth to live; that no one in all this country intends to go to hades, and when we write an obituary the evidence in the death warrants us in stating that the deceased has gone to a land of rest. We invite the "friend" to come to Adair to live and join the great host who are going to a home above. We have no apologies to offer for the upright and noble lives of our people. Submittted by JIM Jim wouldn't comment, but I just heard a great story to the contrary of Bro. Jim's text for today: After her two sisters went to their reward, members of the Adair County church next door to their home invited the survivng third sister to attend their church. She said she reckoned she wouldn't, that her two sisters had never gone to church, and she guessed she'd rather just go to hell to be with them. "I don't want to split up the family," she said. -EW This story was posted on 2011-09-19 16:10:54
