Rumble on the Hilltop is Saturday
Harrison County High School wrestlers will host the annual Rumble on the Hilltop Saturday morning in the high school gymnasium. The Thorobreds will face nine other varsity squads as well as three junior varsity teams in this yearly season kick-off tournament.  
The Thorobreds will bring a veteran group into the tournament with at least 12 returning wrestlers expected to do well in their respective weight classes.  

Wilson Palmer was a fixture at Biancke’s each weekday morning when Patti and I moved to Cynthiana in the middle 70’s. One of the characteristics of Wilson was that he always sat on the east end of the long table in the front and most of the time John Swinford sat to his immediate left.  
They sat like that because, for one reason, they could see everyone who came into the restaurant and if they didn’t know them they could find out who they were and why they were in Cynthiana.  

Julia Muse Fulton and Donald Peter Midden were united in holy matrimony on Oct. 26, 2013, at 1:30 p.m.  Father Vernon Hogan officiated the double-ring ceremony in Fleming County, Ky. at St. Charles Catholic Church.

The couple has four children and five grandchildren.

 -- “We are pleased to be able to communicate to our subscribers, and through to the balance of the citizens of Harrison County, that the county court met on Wednesday last and unanimously voted for a copper roof on the new Court House. This is wisdom. It is just exactly what they should have done long ago.”
