Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Kentucky and Kentuckians: The Leaders and Representative Men in Commerce, Industry Haley P. Cartwright was the fifth in order of birth of the sons and daughters born to his parents. He spent his early life on the paternal farm, partook of the duties and pleasures peculiar to the lot of the farmer's lad, and until the age of sixteen years attended the public schools. He subsequently entered the University of Tennessee at Nashville and was there prepared for his profession. His practice and active work have been of forty years' duration in Warren county, Kentucky. For some period of time he belonged to the faculty of his alma mater where he filled the chair of Physical Diagnosis. He is not one of those content to "let well enough alone," but has taken no small amount of post graduate work, some of his later studies having been pursued under the most noted physicians of the day. Dr. Cartwright was married December 16, 1874, to Miss Jennie R. Simmons, daughter of Cyrus Simmons of Warren county, Kentucky. To their union have been born the following children: Fred D., a graduate physician practicing with his father; Hallie Cartwright, now Mrs. Henry Winston Mosby, of Helena, Arkansas; Percy Cartwright, a civil engineer, engaged in irrigation work; and Alice, who is at home. Dr. Cartwright is actively identified with those organizations having particular bearing upon his profession, these being the American Medical Association; the State Medical Association; and the Warren County Medical Association. His lay affiliations are with the Masonic order, in which he is of the Knights Templars. He is a member of the Christian church and in his political convictions is independent, believing that the best man and the best measure should far outweigh mere partisanship with the voter. He was at one time a member of the State Board of Medical Examiners and enjoys some prominence among his professional brethren the country over as a convincing and discriminating contributor to medical journals, his studious inclinations keeping him well abreast of the times and the latest results of investigation. Joseph S. Claybrooke. - Known as one of the representative business men of the younger generation Mr. Claybrooke is one of the interested principals in the Robertson-Claybrooke Company, a leading mercantile concern of Washington county, with a well equipped establishment in the thriving little city of Springfield. The various departments of the establishment are stocked with select lines of goods and the store controls a large and appreciative patronage, drawing the same from the fine section of country normally tributary to Springfield. Mr. Claybrooke is a representative of one of the sterling pioneer families of Washington county and concerning the genealogy adequate record appears in the sketch of his brother, William D. Claybrooke, on other pages of this work. Joseph S. Claybrooke was born near East Texas, Washington county, on the nth of March, 1874, and in the graded schools of the village mentioned he secured his early educational discipline. Upon leaving school he located in Springfield where, in 1892, he entered the employ of the firm of McCord Robertson as a clerk in their general store. He was thus engaged until 1897, when he became a member of the mercantile establishment of Grundy, Claybrooke & McIntire. This alliance continued until 1905, when he withdrew from the firm and removed to the city of Louisville, where he became one of the interested principals in the wholesale clothing concern of the Fall City Clothing Company, of which he is still a stockholder and with whose active management he was identified until 1907, when he returned to Springfield and effected the organization of the Robertson-Claybrooke Company, which is incorporated with a capital stock of twenty-five thousand dollars and which carries full lines of dry-goods, men's and women's clothing, shoes, hats, carpe...
Download or read book Kentucky s Rebel Press written by Berry Craig and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2018-01-05 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A history of Kentucky's pro-Confederate press and its decidedly unsuccessful campaign to take the Bluegrass State out of the Union.” —Civil War Books and Authors Throughout the Civil War, the influence of the popular press and its skillful use of propaganda was extremely significant in Kentucky. Union and Confederate sympathizers were scattered throughout the border slave state, and in 1860, at least twenty-eight of the commonwealth’s approximately sixty newspapers were pro-Confederate, making the secessionist cause seem stronger in Kentucky than it was in reality. In addition, the impact of these “rebel presses” reached beyond the region to readers throughout the nation. In this compelling and timely study, Berry Craig analyzes the media’s role in both reflecting and shaping public opinion during a critical time in US history. Craig begins by investigating the 1860 secession crisis, which occurred at a time when most Kentuckians considered themselves ardent Unionists in support of the state’s political hero, Henry Clay. But as secessionist arguments were amplified throughout the country, so were the voices of pro-Confederate journalists in the state. By January 1861, the Hickman Courier,Columbus Crescent, and Henderson Reporter steadfastly called for Kentucky to secede from the Union. Kentucky's Rebel Press also showcases journalists who supported the Confederate cause, including editor Walter N. Haldeman, who fled the state after Kentucky’s most recognized Confederate paper, the Louisville Daily Courier, was shut down by Union forces. Exploring an intriguing and overlooked part of Civil War history, this book reveals the importance of the partisan press to the Southern cause in Kentucky.
Download or read book The US Senate and the Commonwealth written by Mitch McConnell and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2019-06-07 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kentucky has long punched above its weight in the US Senate, as some of the nation's most distinguished senators have hailed from the Commonwealth. Despite its relatively small population for much of American history, Kentucky has produced a record two Senate majority leaders, a record three Senate majority whips, and one of the country's greatest lawmakers, Henry Clay. These Kentuckians played an important role in the evolution of leadership institutions in the Senate. Official positions such as Senate majority leader and majority whip are nowhere to be found in the Constitution or early American history, yet today these offices have essentially eclipsed the constitutionally created legislative leadership positions of vice president and president pro tempore. While Kentucky senators have played a vital role in leading the Senate and in its institutional history, no book has told the story in its entirety. The US Senate and the Commonwealth is the first book of its kind to provide a detailed, yet accessible, discussion of the US Senate's leadership throughout its 225-year history. Senator Mitch McConnell and Roy E. Brownell II weave together the history of the Senate with lively portraits of prominent Kentucky senators as well as firsthand reflections about legislative leadership by a Senate majority leader. The authors illuminate and humanize this discussion by exploring the colorful and vivid lives of fifteen Kentucky lawmakers, including Henry Clay, Alben Barkley, and John Sherman Cooper. This compelling and fascinating study is an essential resource.
