100 years later: Knifley, KY goodness report awaits thaw

COF comments on Knifley newsletter from 100 years ago, which noted, "X-mas passed more quietly this time than ever before. No drinking or shooting to any amount," as re-reported by "Jim," and the welcome change in mortality factors in that part of Adair County in the last hun'red years

COF writes:
Caught yer comment introducin' Jims article regardin' a peaceable Christmas in days of yore.

What with the snow an all we ain't too sure how we fared durin' the festivities this year. Hafta wait till hit all melts down to git a good count on how many might be left lying about so as we cain jedge the whole of the goodness or badness of hit comparative to prior years.

Do hafta admit tho, sure seems like we are alosing more to natural causes than enny other and most seem ta think thats a good thang.

The COF, Knifley, KY
