The three officers pictured in the mural were the three highest military officers to pass through Campbellsville during the Civil War. In the center is General George Thomas. On the left is Col. Robert McCook who later became a general. The man on the right is Col. Mahlon Manson who also became a general later in the war. Col. McCook and Col. Manson were Brigade leaders under General Thomas. - Paul Patton Thanks, Paul Patton, for that clarification. The mural is, in itself, a reason to take a day trip to Campbellsville - even more so with the information you have supplied. Thanks. - EW 2013-04-11 07:47:54 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Local History
Chromebooks for Casey: Surprising the Principal day Chromebooks for Casey passed half-way point this morning! The principal is focused on another important leadership role today, so it's up to us to keep the momentum going today - we're at $1,867, enough for almost 19 Chromebooks. CM Col. Wm Casey Elementary School Principal Patty Jones wrote today that she will be focused on another area of leadership today and will not be able to ride herd on her trailblazing project, Chromebooks for Casey. The drive is on auto-pilot today. But wouldn't it be great if education supporters handed her a surprise when she's back to give leadership to the drive tomorrow. BK already has, putting the total past the half-way point early this morning. She wrote, on the DonorsChoose.org site: "I gave because we need to support our schools, kids, and our future." - BK"It's worth taking the time to scan the Chromebooks for Casey site frequently. And make a donation to add impetus to the drive and surprise the Principal. Whether the donors send the total up $500, as one appears to have done, or $100 to cover one laptop, or $10 just to support a great cause, the messages are writing a significant chapter in Adair County history. - EW 2013-04-11 07:22:25 | Comments | Printable version

The world will have a generation of idiots. - ALBERT EINSTEINHer letter indicated that that day is here. It may be that the movie "Idiocracy" is more prophetic than comic. In any case, check us a few more times a day today, with the weather situation being what it is, but otherwise, use CM as the technological tool it is - to gain more time to enjoy the Events and the Sights of South Central Kentucky.
