Revisiting Henderson's Past: Young E. Allison

It's time to take a peek into the archives ...

Young E. Allison: A Writer in the Making

Fifteen men on the Dead Man's Chest—

Drink and the devil had done for the rest—

The mate was fixed by the bos'n's pike,

The bos'n brained with a marlin spike,

And Cookey's throat was marked belike

It had been grippedBy fingers ten;

And there they lay,

All good dead men

Like break-o'-day in a boozing-ken—
Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum!

from “The Derelict” by Young E. Allison

Prior to his career as a famed poet, writer, and journalist, native Hendersonian Young Ewing Allison (1853-1932), who composed the preceding lines, had created a local legacy of his own. The author, who, as a child, resided on the north side of Fourth Street between Main and Elm Streets, would become the youngest officer ever to serve Henderson County and would have an incredible career all before he had reached voting age.

According to a 1932 article in the Sunday Gleaner and Journal, William D. Allison, Henderson County clerk at the time of the Civil War, entrusted his then ten-year-old son, Young Allison, with the considerable responsibility of serving as his deputy county clerk. By the time Young was thirteen, he had begun his newspaper career working in a printing office. His journalistic pursuits would come to fruition two years later when he became editor of a local daily paper. By the age of seventeen, Allison was city reporter, the position which would propel his later careers as editor of the Evansville Journal, Louisville Courier-Journal, Louisville Commercial, and Louisville’s Daily Herald.

At the time of his death in 1932, Young Allison was a literary success, generating, in addition to “The Derelict,” such works as The Delicious Vice, The Old Kentucky Home, The Curious Legend of Louis Philippe in Kentucky, and various others. To think, it all started in Henderson.

To learn more about Young E. Allison or to read some of Allison’s inimitable tales and poems, be sure to visit us upstairs in the library!

Correction: According to the official Kentucky Death Certificate, the father of Young E. Allison was Young E. Allison, Sr., not William D. Allison.

Revisiting Henderson's Past: Stovepipe Johnson

It's time to take a peek into the archives ...


How Stovepipe Johnson earned his name

Many have heard the tales of how Civil War General Thomas Jackson stood “like a stone wall” at the First Battle of Bull Run, earning him the most recognized nickname of the Civil War. You may also know of the amiable General William Tecumseh Sherman and how his troops knew him affectionately as “Uncle Billy.” Do you know, though, how Henderson native General Adam Rankin Johnson came to be known as “Stovepipe” Johnson? No? The story may surprise you.

It was July of 1862. All territory north of the Ohio River was entirely in Union control, and Henderson, Kentucky was peacefully in Federal hands, the Union banner flying high. That situation, however, would quickly change. On the 15th of that month, Federal troops stationed at Henderson were transferred to Louisville, providing Confederate forces with the opportunity to move in. Commanded by Adam Johnson (not yet commissioned to his later rank of brigadier-general), cavalry marched into the city, flag in hand, claiming it for the South.

The troops, though, were in desperate need of weapons and supplies, and the nearest storehouse was the heavily-guarded Union arsenal across the Ohio River in Newburgh, Indiana. With only 27 men and three firearms, a conquest of the structure seemed an impossibility. . . that is, until Johnson and his men came up with a daring scheme to use what was available. This, too, seemed problematic, as what was available consisted of a crumbling set of wagon wheels, two stove pipes and a charred log. In a bold, ingenious maneuver, Johnson and his men set the stove pipes on one pair of wheels and the log in the other to construct what would appear from across the river to be two cannons. The commander then, marched his men back and forth between the cannons and the woods to visually increase the size of his company. By the time Johnson had crossed the river and marched through Newburgh, its citizens were ready to give up their arsenal for fear of the oncoming artillery bombardment.

The contrivance would earn Stovepipe Johnson his nickname and produce one of history’s biggest hoaxes, leaving the South in possession of their first city north of the Ohio River.

To learn more about Stovepipe Johnson’s infamous raid or Henderson’s rich history in general, come in and visit Henderson County Public Library’s archives. See what’s available here: http://www.hcpl.org/genealogy/kyfiles.html.

Notes from the past

It is always an exciting moment when a forgotten treasure is discovered when someone is cleaning out or reorganizing an attic or basement. Whatever this treasure may be, it is so exciting and interesting that it just has to be shared. The finder tells her family and friends that they just won't believe what she found sitting in a box in her house, and those friends share her enthusiasm and amazement too. Just like the person cleaning out her attic, we are excited and enthusiastic around here because we are doing a little reorganizing and have found treasures and tidbits to share with our library friends.

Since the library was opened in 1904, librarians have been collecting letters, newspaper clippings, and other articles and papers of local interest. These collected papers have grown over the decades to fill hundreds of folders and make up our Family Files and Kentucky Files. We have decided that after 103 years it is time to evaluate the condition and content of these files. Our archivists are going through every file folder to see what is in it and to inspect its contents for damaged and misfiled items. They have found several local history treasures that they are dying to share with our patrons. As fragile and damaged items are being copied onto acid-free archive-quality paper, handwritten letters and histories are being transcribed, and the files themselves are being cross-referenced to other relevant materials in the Kentucky and Family File collections, our librarians expect to find many more astonishing facts and stories about Henderson and the people who have lived here.

We will be periodically posting the most interesting or unusual stories on this blog under the heading, "Revisiting Henderson's Past." As they are posted, we invite and encourage you to take a few minutes to learn a thing or two about our hometown and all the little treasures she's kept hidden here at the library.

Genealogists: try WorldCat for research

When you have run out of research resources, try WorldCat, a free online catalog of library materials. WorldCat is a key resource for genealogists. It is the world's largest library database. It contains information for more than 68 million items owned by 7,600 libraries around the world. Constant growth makes WorldCat a rich resource for genealogists who seek primary source materials.

Sample searches include family names, organizations, and geographic locations. If you find an item of interest, WorldCat will tell you which libraries own it. You may be able to travel to that library to view the item, or we may be able to borrow it for you. Some libraries have even posted digitized versions of library materials such as Bible records.

Many genealogists have furthered their research through WorldCat. Read one of the many real-life success stories. If you would like more information or help searching, please contact one of our genealogy and local history librarians at 826-3712 or via email.

Get out of debt now - tips and tools

Morningstar's Investing Tip for the Month

Before people can invest for retirement, college, or other purposes, they have to have money left over after paying their bills. People have plenty of excuses for running short each month, but there's no good reason, if they have the desire to save.

Sue Stevens, CFP, CFA, CPA/PFS, and Morningstar's director of financial planning, urges people to follow these five steps to reduce their debt:

1. Know what you owe. This boils down to keeping a record of every penny you spend. You'll be surprised how those occasional coffees, little treats, packs of gum, for example, add up to real money. You can't save it if you don't know you're spending it.
2. Set up your budget and pay down your debt. A budget on a spreadsheet allows you to think through your expenditures and find places to cut back. And if you do nothing else, pay off your credit cards. Their high interest rates practically guarantee a lifetime of debt.
3. Lower your borrowing costs. As you're working to free yourself of debt, take advantage of low-interest offers.
4. Set up an emergency fund. Unexpected expenses, like car repairs, or income reduction, like a layoff, can plunge you right back into debt. So set up an emergency fund, funnel money into it, and keep it out of sight in a money market fund.
5. Live within your means. Gratifying every whim is a sure prescription for trouble. Know your limits and live within them. You'll not only be richer, you'll be happier, too.
   

Want specific cost-cutting ideas? Go to the Investing for Beginners guide (pdf). There you'll find Sue's 101 Ways to Cut Expenses.

New entrance open for business

At 11:00 this morning the library officially opened its new entrance. Its first customer was former state representative Gross Clay Lindsey. Mr. Lindsey was instrumental in securing the funds from the state legislature for the construction project. The project was funded through a coal severance grant. The library's temporary entrance and book drop on Washington Street (through the multi-purpose room) are now closed. The new book drop is open and available next to the new automatic sliding doors.

The library wishes to express its deepest appreciation to the public for its cooperation, patience, and compliments. Without the support of the public, this process would have been much more difficult. We believe that the new entrance will be much more convenient for all of our patrons.
