Trimble County

I have just had an interview with him this evening.

He testifies that he was well acquainted with Henry Bibb in Trimble County, Kentucky, and that he sent a letter to him by Thomas Henson and got one in return from him.

He says that Bibb came out to Canada some three years ago and went back to get his wife up, but was betrayed at Cincinnati by a colored man, that he was taken to Louisville but got away, was taken again and lodged in jail and sold off to New Orleans.

Or he, Harrison, understood that he was taken to New Orleans.

One of these, Simpson Young, is now at Malden.

Very respectfully, thy friend, Hiram Wilson.

Number two, Bedford Trimble County, Kentucky, March 4, 1845.

Sir, your letter under date of the 13th last month is now before me, making some inquiry about a person supposed to be a fugitive from the South who was lecturing to your religious community on slavery and the South.

The person spoken of by you, I have no doubt, is Walton, a yellow man, who once belonged to my father, William Gatewood.

He was purchased by him from John Sibley, and by John Sibley of his brother Albert G. Sibley, and Albert G. Sibley became possessed of him by his marriage with Judge David White's daughter, he being born Judge White's slave.

Fruitless efforts to find my wife.

The first direct information that I received concerning any of my relations after my last escape from slavery was communicated in a letter from William H. Gatewood, my former owner, which I here insert word for word without any correction.

Yeah, we've had, according to the state's latest numbers that are online, 51 cases of the measles in Kentucky this year.

That includes one in Trimble, two in Owen, two in Lewis County, four in Jessamine, five in Washington.

And then the biggest cluster is like 20 in Christian and nine in Trigg that have been recorded this year.

And that's compared to 13 cases last year.

Ed, you remember back in the day when we were hunting together, I stacked up a lot of deer, but I was a short-range hunter.

We were hunting thick brush country up in Henry and Trimble County.

and it'll get the job done.

And nowadays, 270 and 30-06 are my favorites because they're, again, the old standby.
