June 15, 1894 - Corbin News in the Mayfield Voice
Page 359, Mayfield: Then and Now
Charlie, when you go swimming, don't leave your clothes in the wagon unless you tie your team.
("Mayfield: Then and Now" co-author Elaine Clark's note: I'll bet everyone in Corbin - and many in Mayfield - knew Charlie's last name!)
(Sherry's Note: I love old newspapers! You never know what you'll find when you turn the page, but small-town news often had cute little tidbits like this!)
