Remembering, from Best of Senior Quest: Jimmy Robertson Metcalfe County native Jimmy Robertson passed away on Nov. 22, 2014 (Obituary). The following article is reproduced from the book The Best of Senior Quest, published in 2009 and available online in print or ebook form. By Geniece Marcum Jimmy Robertson has long been known as a top-notch bricklayer by trade, but not too many people know that he also enjoys making musical instruments as a side line. Being a talented musician himself, Jimmy has played just about every kind of musical instrument he has ever seen. So it was probably only natural about ten years ago when he found himself looking around for a good mandolin and a hobby at the same time, that he decided to put both talent and a new hobby together and just make his own.

MIKE WATSON: A Thanksgiving Proclamation, 1864 More wonderful stories like this one by the author in the topic: Mike Watson - History By Mike Watson Adair County Historian "Thursday, the 24th inst., having been set apart by the Proclamation of the President of the United States to be observed as a day of National Thanksgiving and Prayer, it should be so observed by all the citizens of Kentucky, with that becoming reverence and thankfulness to Almighty God for His manifold mercies bestowed, even while scourging us with war. "We should praise and thank Him that we are yet preserved as a Nation, and that the hope of a preserved nationality, and a restored unity and peace to our distracted country, is still kept--as the Vestal flame--aglow in the hearts of the people. As a People and a Nation we have much--very much--for which to give Him thanks and praise, not only for blessings bestowed upon us, but for evils which He has withheld.This Proclamation was issued by Thomas E. Bramlette, Governor of Kentucky, in the name of the Commonwealth, from the Executive Department, Frankfort, Ky., Nov. 16th, 1864: We were embroiled in a great war, the Civil War, at that time, still some months from the last shot. There was much to be thankful for then, as today. So much has to be repaired for life to continue for the nation, as today.
