House where Selby's machine was 3 miles from Butler Fort

About: Adair Co KY perpetual motion machine Was it a water ram?

By Patricia Holladay Bennett

We did not suggest a "ram pump" was built at the Butler Fort.

I do not care to argue that point, or the semantics of ram pump.

The invention was purported to have been tried at the Junction of 80/61 on the Gilmer/Dohoney farm where Walmart is now, and we have pictures of its stone shelter and the tunnel from the old house which was a 3 story brick with a wooden roof which burned (supposedly).

Wildlife babies: Cute fawn, but nature can be cruel

Likes George Rice photo of spotted fawn. But, sadly, Thistle babies may have fallen prey to, most likely, coyotes; one turkey nest raided, but there's hope for another, up in tree

Cute little feller!

I have started bushhogging more slowly because of the animals.
