Nicholas County News Since 1867
Court hears strong Mathers Fund report
By Charles Mattox
News Editor
[email protected]
The Mathers fund remains very strong.
Members of the Nicholas County Fiscal Court
heard a very inspiring
report about the county’s
Mathers Fund Dec. 13
from Brian Griffith, trust
associate with JP Morgan Bank.
Griffith provided court
members with a written
report and gave them a
50 cents
verbal overview on what
the report contained. He
also answered a variety
of questions from the
court members.
The Mathers Fund is
a program that was established in 1937 from
Dr. Charles Mathers.
Mathers was a wellknown Nicholas County
Doctor who passed away
at the age of 75 in 1937.
Mathers had amassed
a sizable fortune before
his death and his phil-
anthropic devotion was
second to none for his beloved neighbors in Nicholas County.
Mathers left a will in
which he left a sizable
sum of money ($100,000)
to be administered to assist the ‘indigent” children of Nicholas County.
The current trust balance is approximately
$2.5 million, according to
Griffith, who told court
members that the trust
made $184,000 in invest-
ment returns this year.
JP Morgan bank makes
approximately $14,500
annually for managing
the trust, according to
Griffith.
Griffith said the trust
was one of the easier
ones to manage because
the trust had ‘only one
beneficiary,” that being
the Fiscal Court, which
appoints a committee to
appropriate funds each
year for qualified recipients.

Court tables decision on McCord lane closure

Nicholas County Judge-Executive Mike Pryor ensured everyone remained calm during a passionate public hearing
Dec. 13 regarding the possible closure of McCord Lane.

[email protected]
Members of the Nicholas County Fiscal Court
tabled a decision to discontinue maintenance on
McCord Lane following
a public hearing on the
possible road closure held
Dec. 13 in the Nicholas
County Courthouse and
just prior to the regular meeting of the fiscal
court.
The public hearing
grew heated at times, due
2013 Christmas
Parade Royalty
to last-minute legal activity from the attorney of
one of the families who
live near the road.
Members of the McCord
family would like to see
the road closed and requested that members of
the Nicholas County Fiscal court take action to
discontinue maintenance
on the rural and somewhat isolated road.
Members of the Gilkerson family want the road
to remain open.
Brian M. Thompson,
the county Attorney for
Clark County, represented members of the Gilkerson family and presented
information
regarding
the last-minute establishment of new deeds for
three parcels of land within the Gilkerson property.
Thompson
claimed
“grave errors had been
made procedurally and
cited several Kentucky
cases that leant credence
to his argument to keep
the road open.
Discussion seemed to
indicate that at least one
of the new Gilkerson property owners had land that
fell within the “right-ofway” of the existing road,
a key to the complexity of
the argument.
“You can’t bar public
access to a county road
and this is a county road,”
Thompson said regarding the desire for McCord
family members to place
a gate across the road. “If
(my clients) don’t want
the road closed, well, it
cannot be closed.”
Thompson said he and
his clients had “subdivided” the property that very
morning.
The subdivision seemed
to add a level of complexity to the discussion and
some present thought
it was an antagonistic
move.
“I’ve seen some shady
deals before but buddy,
well, that’s just a shame,”
one member of the McCord family said.
Nicholas County Judge
Executive assured members of both families that
neither, nor anyone on

“The Whitaker Bank Corporations regrets the closing of the
Carlisle Branch. It is a financial decision and one that the
corporation did not wish to make. The Carlisle branch will
remain open until March 28, 2014. The closing will not affect accounts of customers who have their accounts with
our Carlisle branch. For example , if a customer has a direct
deposit, it will continue to come to their checking account
and customers will make their loan payments to Whitaker
Bank. Customers can continue to bank with Whitaker at any
of our 37 locations with the closest being on the by-pass in
Mt Sterling and on Paris Pike in Lexington. Customers who
have not enrolled in our on-ling banking program are encouraged to do so at www.whitakerbank.com. Other options of “Banking at home” include our telephone banking
and text banking. Any Whitaker Bank representative can enroll our customers in these programs to help ease the burden
of the branch closing.”
the court was “taking
sides” and kept passionate speeches from growing too heated in the close
confines of the room.
Thompson’s well-prepared words and often
elitist tone seemed directed toward Dawn Letcher,
the County Attorney for
Nicholas County, who re-
mained calm, countered
several of Thompson’s
invalid points and continued to advise the court on
specific action they should
consider before acting.
“We’ll take everything
under advisement and
do some more research,”
Judge Pryor said after
lengthy discussion.
iff Jeff Sidles alleges that
on august 2, of this year,
Bowles sold two 15 mg
oxycodone pills and one
30 mg oxycodone pill to
a confidential informant.
Bowles also allegedly
sold two 30 mg oxycodone pills to a confidential
informant on August 7
and on August 16, allegedly sold two 30 mg oxycodone pills to a confidential informant.
A preliminary hearing
is used in district court

Heaven Is
A Lot Like
Kentucky
By

The ‘White Indian
Tradition’ was a tradition handed down by
the Indians themselves.
Many Indian tribes insisted that before the red
man appeared, a white
race inhabited this country and that it was this
white race which had
built the mounds, made
the flint arrow heads
and erected the fortifications with which the
Indians were perfectly
familiar but which they
claimed were here when
the red man appeared
upon the scene. The Indians insisted that this
white race had been entirely destroyed many
moons before the arrival
of Europeans. This was
an old and well established tradition.”
From ‘Ancient Life
in Kentucky’ by W.D.
Since 1867
Funkhouser, Professor
of Zoolology and William S. Webb, Professor
of Physics; University of
Kentucky. 1928
“George Stockton was
a famous Indian Warrior and a man who was
highly esteemed… He
was six feet and three
inches tall… He was
a man of uncommon
muscular power… He
could whip any man. He
feared nothing but his
maker.”
Robert Stockwell Interview, Draper Manuscripts volume 10 BB
“Father
had
been
captured with his sister. They were taken to
an Indian village near
Niagara Falls. Father
had to run the gauntlet
upon first entering the
village. He was adopted
by a widowed squaw
and trained on the bow
and arrow and then the
musket. When he was 16
he accompanied the Indians on all their hunts
and warfare expeditions.
Father could speak most
Indian
languages…
When my father was 19
he traveled with his Indian friends to Detroit to
trade furs for blankets
and ammunition. There
he met a French trader
who spoke English and
with the Indians’ consent he stayed there for
three months to act as
an interpreter,”
D.K. Stockton, 10th
son of George Stockton
Draper manuscripts volume 12 BB page 49.
I’ve been born again
hard with passion for
history,
archaeology
and
artifact-hunting,
dear reader.
I braved the slicing
wind and plummeting
temperatures again this
RETURNERS
past weekend to go artifact hunting.
I had a little luck,
found a projectile point
and a few interesting
pottery shards on a local
multi-component
site. Two pottery shards
were of particular interest to me; one shows an
artistic flare where the
artisan crafted a flange
on the bowl rim, possibly a “duck butt’ as my
friends call them. One
end of a bow will have
a pottery head of a bird,
moist-often a duck, and
the opposite end will
have, well, a duck butt.
You can see the finger and thumb prints
still superimposed in
the hardened clay after
all of these years from
where the pottery maker crafted his bowl.
A second shard displays geometrical patterns upon the clay pottery.
The cold, brief artifactadventure rejuvenated
my interest in our fasci-
nating history and this
weekend I kept wondering about the many elusive aspects of Native
American life regarding
northeastern Kentucky
that remained a mystery.
I found myself returning to notes about white
captives among the historic Native American
tribes. I kept going back
over my notes on captives, such as Daniel
Boone, James Crawford,
Berry Allen, Clarenda
Allington, Mrs. Abner
Baker, Mrs. Joseph
Young, Rachel Becraft,
and her brother, Benjamin. George Stockton,
Jack Calloway, Jones
Hoy, Joseph Jackson,
Benjamin Kelly, Ansel
Goodman and others.
Many of these were
fully adopted into the
various tribes of which
they had become prisoners.
Clarenda
Allington
became the slave of a
Cherokee sub-chief, and
had three children by
him before returning
home many years after
her captivity during the
1793 attack on Morgan’s
Station
Stockton, captured as
a child, lived among the
factions of Iroquois Nations for a dozen years
and yet his many depositions remain silent
regarding that time. We
have only brief narratives from his sons.
Boone, like Stockton, kept the Native
American secrets closely guarded, which he
learned after being adopted.
I continue to seek all
the information I can,
wither it be reading and
re-reading pioneer testimonies and depositions
or analyzing geometrical figures inscribed on
ancient pottery.
The history of northeastern Kentucky is
fascinating and remains
largely unknown prior
to 1750.

County residents provided 379 pints of blood
to be used by patients

residents in other area
hospitals. More is needed. On Monday, March
8 a blood drive will be
held at the First Methodist Church from 1:009:00 p.m. The county’s
goal for 1982 will be 400

Fondest Memories
Since 1867
As most you of you know
that Santa Letters will be
published in next weeks
edition of The Carlisle
Mercury.
With receiving so many
letters it makes me think
about the joy that this
gives to all of the little children throughout the community.
I remember when I was
a little girl that I couldn’t
wait to send in the Santa
letter in. I just thought
that was the biggest thing
to be able to send that letter in.
Some of the letters that
the children have sent in
will warm your heart and
just give you a great feeling with Christmas right
around the corner. I have
seen some kids ask for
things not for themselves
but for others, and then a
couple will ask for a few
toys, but one thing that I
can say that all of the children ask for Santa to remember other loved ones
and friends.
Its nice to see that thinking of others not only comes
from adults but from the
younger ones as well.
In this community there
have been angel trees,
snowflake wreaths, toy
drive boxes and one of the
all time favorites shop with
a cop.
I personally cant think
of a thing that I truly want
for Christmas because I
feel that I am the richest of
all with the family, friends
and a wonderful community to live in. There is not
present any greater than
that to me.
And on Christmas Eve,
we have special people
that make a lot of fun,
with watching for Santa
and his reindeers pull that
sled with all of the gifts
on the radar. They help
Santa know who has went
to bed early so that he can
make his travel all over the
world.
So to all of you little ones,
and the older ones young
at heart be sure to leave
some milk and cookies under the tree for old St. Nick
and fix up that reindeer
food with oats and glitter
to spread out on the grass
so they will know that you
are anxiously waiting for
them.
Make some wonderful
memories during this holiday season and be sure to
love those around you. Its
not about the gifts that you
receive but the love that
you share. And remember
that it is Jesus birthday
which is the reason for the
season.
Until next time keep
those memories rolling!
Wedco District Home
Health Agency has been
named a 2013 Home
Health Consumer Assessment of Healthcare
Providers and Systems
(HHCAHPS) HonorsTM
recipient, a prestigious
award recognizing those
home health agencies
that provide the best
patient experience.
Established by Deyta, this annual honor
recognizes the top 20
percent
of
agencies
that continuously provide the highest level
of satisfaction through
their care as measured
from the patient’s point
of view. HHCAHPS
Honors acknowledges
the highest performing agencies ranked by
analyzing satisfaction
measures covering both
performance and improvement of care over
a twelve-month period.
Deyta
used
the
HHCAHPS survey results from over 1,200
eligible home health
agencies contained in
its HHCAHPS database with an evaluation
period of April 2012 to
March 2013. Two domains of performance
were used in the calculations covering the
nineteen questions that
comprise the five publicly reported HHCAHPS
measures
found
on
Home Health Compare.
Qualifications for eligibility included those
HHAs that were compli-
ant and partnered with
Deyta for the evaluation
period.
“We are excited to
honor these outstanding home health agencies,” said J. Kevin Porter, President and CEO.
“Their tireless work has
made a real difference
in the lives of their patients, and we look forward to acknowledging
their excellence.”
Crystal Caudill Miller, Public Health Director, Wedco District
Health Department and
Home Health Agency,
credits the strong leadership in this program
as well as the work ethic, loyalty and dedication of the staff within
the Wedco District. She
said, “We focus on the
development of human
capacity on all levels
because our staff is the
nucleus of our organization.
Focusing our
efforts on leadership as
well as recruiting and
retaining highly skilled
individuals with strong
work ethic, loyalty and
dedication to serve the
patients in each of our
communities is what
made Wedco a staple in
our communities.”
These are the goals to
which we strive.

A very large crowd enjoyed
a nice reception for the 90th
birthday of Betsy Cleaver on
Friday from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m.
at the beautiful Wallis Home
in Paris. Each of the garden
clubs had a room to decorate
for Christmas and it was gorgeous. Many weddings or
receptions ect. Are held here
in the big house or outside.
Today Martha sue Taylor
gave a talk on “This is Your
Life” and both sons, John
and danny gavea talk, and
also several others. There
were many tributes as well as
many chuckles. Such a nice
day for a lady who does not
look her age.
The Carlisle Christmas parade was held Saturday night.
Terry J. Doyle had his team
of thiw hroses and beautiful
white buggy with the top up.
He also was in Falmouth parade and Richmond parade
and then Mt. Olivet on Sunday. Sometimes he carried
officials or family and Carlisle he carried heather Midden Fryman who is a candidate for Family court judge
in 18th Judicial Circuit. Terry
was supposed to carry Mr.
and Mrs. Ssanta in Cynthiana
but it again was canceled.
The Headquarters u. M.
Church had a good crowd
on Sunday afternoon for
their Christmas play which
was very good, directed by
Stephanie Flora Cole with
others help. The children
were given their treats following the program several
visitors attended. The young
adults had our church decorated so pretty. They wanted
our offering to go to St. Judes
Childrens Hospital, as was
done another time.
Around 75 people enjoyed
the “Woodmen of the World
Christmas Supper” held on
Friday night at the Harrison County 4-H center. The
pledge to the flag was first
then Jeff Doyle asked the
blessing, before our delicious
meal. Mr. and Mrs. Charles
Doyle coks the turkey, all
the trimmings, the ham etc.
with potluck. Also decorates

A large crowd enjoyed the
good “Christmas Cantada” at
the Carlisle Christian Church
on Sunday night directed by
Whitney Mathes. It also had
a narrator and drama.
Thoughts from the Pastor
Steve Smith,
Carlisle Christian
Church
In 1994 two
Americans
answered
an invitation from the
Russian Department of
Education to teach morals and ethics (based
on Biblical principles)
in the public schools.
[IMAGINE
THAT!!!]
They were invited to
teach at prisons, businesses, the fire and police departments, and a
large orphanage.
It was nearing the
holiday season for the
orphans to hear for the
first time the traditional Christmas story.
They told them about
Mary and Joseph arriving in Bethlehem and
finding no room in the
inn, the couple went to
a stable, where Jesus
was born and placed in
the manger.
Throughout the story,
the children, according
to one of the Americans, “sat in amazement as they listened.
Some sat on the edges
of their stools, trying to
grasp every word.”
As a follow-up activity
to the story, each child
was given three small
pieces of cardboard to
make a crude manager. Each child was also
given a small paper
square, cut from yellow
napkins which the children tore into strips of
paper and carefully laid
them in the manger for
straw. Small squares of
flannel from a thrown
away nightgown were
used for the baby’s
blanket. From pieces of
tan felt a doll-like baby
was made.
As they made their
way around the room
to observe the children
this is what one of the
Americans noted, “All
went well until I got to
one table where little
Misha sat. He looked
to be about 6 years old
and had finished his
project.
As I looked at the
little boy’s manger, I
was startled to see, not
one but two babies in
the manger. Quickly, I
called for the translator to ask the lad why
there were two babies
in the manger.”
The observer goes on
to note that Misha very
accurately recalled the
story that had been
told until he came to
the part where Mary
put Jesus in the manger. “Then Misha,” it
is noted, “started to
ad-lib. He made up his
own ending to the story
as he said, “And when
Maria laid the baby
in the manger, Jesus
looked at me and asked
me if I had a place to
stay. I told him I have
no momma and I have
no papa, so I don’t have
any place to stay.
Then Jesus told me
I could stay with him.
But I told him I couldn’t
because I didn’t have a
gift to give him like everybody else did. But
I wanted to stay with
Jesus so much, so I
thought about what I
had that maybe I could
use for a gift. I thought
maybe if I kept him
warm, that would be a
good gift.
So I asked Jesus, “If
I keep you warm, will
that be a good enough
gift?” And Jesus told
me, “If you keep me
warm, that will be the
best gift anybody ever
gave me. So I got into
the manger, and then
Jesus looked at me and
he told me I could stay
with him – for always.”
As little Misha finished his story, his eyes
brimmed full of tears
that splashed down his
little cheeks. Putting
his hand over his face,
his head dropped to the
table and his shoulders
shook as he sobbed and
sobbed. The little orphan had found someone who would never
abandon or abuse him,
someone who would
stay with him – FOR
ALWAYS!”
This my friends, is
what Christmas really
means. It means, “for
always.” It means to
transform what needs
to be, to forgive what
failed to be, to heal
what yearns to and restore what cries out to
be.
May the true meaning
of Christmas fill each of
your hearts with joy,
love and peace.

Bread of Life
Isaiah 7:14 Therefore the Lord Himself
shall give you a sign;
behold a virgin shall
conceive and bear a
son and shall call his
name Immanuel. 15.
Butter and Honey
shall he eat, that he
may know to refuse
the evil, and choose
the good. Isaiah 9:6
for unto us a child is
born, unto us a son is
given; and the government shall be upon
his shoulder; and his
name shall be called
wonderful, Counselor
the mighty God, the
everlasting
Father,
the Prince of Peace.
Luke 2 And it came
to pass in those days,
that there went out a
decree from Caesar
Augustus, that all the
world should be taxed.
2 (And this taxing was
first made when Cyrenius was governor of
Syria) 3. And all went
to be taxed, everyone
into his own city. 4.
And Joseph also went
up from Galilee, out of
the City of Nazareth,
into Judea, unto the
City of David, which
is called Bethelehem;
(because he was of
the House and Lineage of David; ) 5. To
be taxed with Mary
his espoused wife, being great with child.
6. And so it was, that,
while they were there,
the days were a accomplished that she
should be delivered. 7
and she brought, forth
her first born son, and
wrapped Him in swaddling clothes, and laid
him in a manager;
because there was no
room for them in the
inn. 8. And there were
in the same country
shepherds
abiding
in the field, keeping
watch over their flock
by night. 9 and, 10,
the angel of the Lord
came upon them, and
the glory of the Lord
shone round about
them; and they were
sore afraid 10 and the
angel said unto them,
fear not; for, behold, I
bring you good tidings
of great joy, which
shall be to all people.
11 for unto you is born
this day in the city of
David a Savior, which
is Christ the Lord.
12 and this shall be
a sign unto you; ye
shall find the babe
wrapped
in
swaddling clothes, lying in
a manger. 13 and suddenly there was with
the angel a multitude
of the heavenly host
praising God, and saying 14 Glory to God,
in the highest and on
earth peace, good will
toward men. 15. And
it came to pass, as
the angels were gone
away from them into
heaven, the shepherds
said one to another let
us now go even unto
Bethlehem, and see
this thing which is
come to pass, which
the Lord hath made
known unto us. 16 and
they came with haste,
and found Mary, and
Joseph and the babe
lying in a manger. 17
and when they had
seen it, they made
known abroad the
saying which was told
them concerning this
child. 18. And all they
that heard it wondered
of those things which
were told them by the
shepherds 19. But
Mary kept all these
things, and pondered
them in her heart. 20
and the shepherds returned glorifying and
praising God for all
the things that they
had heard and seen,
as it was told unto
them. 21. And when
eight days were accomplished for the circumcising of the child,
his name was called
Jesus, which was so
named of the angel before he was conceived
in the womb.
As we celebrate the
birth of our Savior
may we each realize
that Jesus is coming back to earth to
get his brid3e (which
is everyone that has
accepted
Jesus
as
their Savior) He’s not
coming as a babe in
a manger this time.
He’s coming as King
of Kings and Lord of
Lords (rev 19;16) Are
you ready for his coming? No man knows
when he’ll come but
after he comes it will
be too late to call on
him. If you don’t know
Jesus as your Savior,
accept him into your
heart and life right
now, before it’s Everlasting too late. Jesus
is Lord.

Jackets outlast Bath County for first win
Nicholas County, playing
on the road, notched its first
win under new head coach
Roger Newton on Tuesday
(Dec. 10), outlasting rival
Bath County 89-85.
Scott Keaton and Tyler
Newton led Nicholas County with 25 points apiece.
Keaton, who dominated
down in the post, grabbed
four rebounds and dished
out two assists for the Bluejackets. Newton added four
assists and two rebounds
for Nicholas County in the
hard-fought win.
"It was a great win and
effort with two starters out
with injuries," Nicholas
County Coach Roger Newton confided, following his
team's emotional victory.
The younger Newton's
free throw shooting helped
to lift Nicholas County to
the victory. Tyler Newton
was 20 of 21 from the foul
line in the contest. He was
14 of 15 from the charity
stripe in the fourth quarter.
Logan Fryman joined Keaton and the younger Newton in double figures with
13 points. Fryman also
pulled down a team-best six
rebounds for the Jackets.
Nicholas County shot
62.8 percent (22 of 35) from
the field. The Jackets were
three of 13 (23.1 percent)
from 3-point range.
Nicholas County thrived
at the foul line, shooting 80
percent (36 of 45).
The Jackets trailed early
in the first quarter. But
Nicholas County battled
back to lead 19-16 by the
end of the opening quarter
and 44-39 at halftime of the
rivalry game
The Jackets came out
on 9-0 run to lead 53-39
midway through the third
quarter. With Nicholas
County dealing with an injury to Ben Duncan before
halftime and foul trouble
to Austin Shepherd and
Dillon Webb, Bath County
made multiple runs in the
third quarter. After its
lead dwindled down in the
third quarter, Nicholas
County fell behind. Nicholas County trailed 71-77
with 3:08 remaining. The
Jackets rallied behind baskets from Keaton and free
throws by Tyler Newton,
Logan Stafford, Webb and
Keaton. Trailing 78-82 with
41.7 seconds remaining, the
accurate-shooting Newton
sank two free throws to cut
it to 80-82.
After one free throw
by Bath County's Blake
Maze, Tyler Newton, who
had been face guarded
and harassed all night,
was pushed to the floor by
Caden Messer directly in
front of the Bath County
student section just before
Maze could take his second charity toss. With the
foul, the second free throw
was not awarded and Tyler Newton went down to
the other end of the court
and sank both free throws
to make the score 83-82 in
favor of the Bath County
boys' basketball team. After two free throws from
Maze pushed the score to
85-82 in Bath County's favor, Nicholas County came
down and found Keaton
inside, where he made the
basket and was fouled. The
defender, Hunter Johnson,
was tagged with a technical
foul for inappropriate language and demonstrative
reaction to the call. Keaton,
however, went to the line
and missed his attempt at
a three-point play. Then,
Tyler Newton sank both
technical foul shots. When
the ball was inbounded, he
was fouled. Tyler Newton
calmly went to the line and
sank both free throws to
make the score 86-85, giving Nicholas County its first
lead since the third quarter.
On the inbound, Tyler
Newton was fouled by Ty
Rogers. He went to the line
and hit both free throws
to push Nicholas County's
lead out to 88-85.
Bath County's Mac Becraft was fouled before he
was able to take a threepoint shot and went to the
line with 12.7 seconds remaining. He missed both
free throws and Logan
Stafford was fouled with
8.0 seconds left. Stafford
hit the front end of the
Merry Christmas
from
The Linville
Family
two-shot penalty. On the
rebound, Becraft raced the
down court and launched a
running three-pointer from
the left wing that fell short,
preserving the Jackets' dramatic comeback.
Webb and Wes Sapp
scored seven points apiece
for the Jackets. Stafford
and Elijah Barnett followed, finishing with five
points each. Contributing to
Nicholas County's thrilling
come-from-behind win, Taz
Eckler and Duncan tossed
in two points apiece.
Duncan left the game in
the second quarter with a
foot injury and did not return.

A Message from the Judge’s Desk
I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving. It's been another busy month. We have received the new dump truck that was ordered from World Wide Equipment and
the way the weather is acting we will be soon be using it to push snow. We also purchased a used grader that is helping our road department keep county roads in
good shape. Robinson Masonry has finished repairing the wall on the east side of the courthouse and it looks great. The men at the County Road Department reset
the cap stones and lined them up. Robinson Masonry retucked the joints at no extra charge. I attended KACO state conference a few weeks ago and had a chance
to meet with many officials and legislators. I also talked to the Governors Chief of Staff and asked for the Governors support with the future needs of our County.
His response was very positive and he assured me that they want to help when ever possible. Also, we have been able to keep our County protected by dealing with
the possibility of a shutdown at our local ambulance service. We were informed on December 6th at 8:15 pm that Med One had filed for bankruptcy. On Monday,
Rob Biddle, my staff and I started gathering the information needed to keep our ambulance service up and running. After a lot of phone calls and research we were
able to offer a plan to the Fiscal Court that will keep our county safe. We will be advertising for someone to operate the ambulance service and run it according to
the guidelines we give them. I want everyone to know that every second of the day we are looking out for the well being of all residents of Nicholas County. I want
to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

Kentucky Fish and Wildlife Commission proposes 2014-2015 deer
season dates and modifications for deer hunting on select WMAs
The Kentucky Fish
and Wildlife Commission at its quarterly
meeting Dec. 6 proposed
the dates of the 20142015 deer seasons. Commission members also
voted to modify deer
hunting regulations on
select wildlife management areas (WMAs)
along with changes to
the furbearer trapping
season.
The commission recommends all hunting,
fishing and boating regulations for approval by
the General Assembly
and approves all expenditures by the Kentucky
Department of Fish and
Wildlife Resources. All
recommendations must
be approved by legislators before they become
law.
2014-2015 deer season dates (no changes
from last season, dates
reflect calendar shift)
All zones:
Archery: Sept. 6, 2014
– Jan. 19, 2015, either
sex.
Crossbow: Oct. 1 –
Oct. 19; Nov. 8 – Dec.
31, 2014, either sex.
Early Youth Weekend: Oct. 11 – 12, 2014,
either sex.
Early Muzzleloader:
Zones 1, 2 and 3: Oct.
18 – 19, 2014, either sex.
Zone 4: antlered only.
Modern Firearms:
Zones 1 and 2: Nov. 8
– Nov. 23, 2014, either
sex.
Zone 3: Nov. 8 – Nov.
17, 2014, either sex.
Zone 4: Nov. 8 – Nov.
17, 2014, antlered only.
Late
Muzzleloader:
statewide: Dec. 13 –
Dec. 21, 2014.
Zone 4: Dec. 13 – Dec.
18, 2014, antlered only.
Dec. 19 – Dec. 21,
2014, either sex.
Late Youth Weekend:
Dec. 27 – 28, 2014, ei-
ther sex.
Bag limits remain the
same as last season.
In other deer-related business, the commission recommended
changing Menifee County from Zone 3 to Zone
4. They also proposed
several changes to deer
hunting on select wildlife management areas
(WMAs). These changes
will not affect the current hunting seasons,
but will be effective for
the 2014-2015 deer seasons:
- Open J.C. Williams
WMA in Nelson County and Lloyd WMA in
Grant County under
statewide
regulations
for youth firearms season.
- Institute a quota firearms hunt for the first
weekend in December
on Dewey Lake WMA in
Floyd County.
- The 15-inch outside
spread antler restriction will be removed
from Yellowbank WMA
in Breckinridge County.
- On Beaver Creek
WMA in McCreary and
Pulaski counties, the
modern gun quota hunt
will be for antlered deer
only.
- On Paul Van Booven
WMA
in
Breathitt
County, the 15-inch
outside spread antler
restriction will be removed along with modern gun hunting. The
area will remain open
under statewide regulations for archery and
crossbow hunting, but
is closed to all firearms
hunting for deer.
- Move the quota hunt
to the first weekend in
November on Big Rivers WMA in Union and
Crittenden counties.
In furbearer-related
business, the commission recommended pro-
hibiting night hunting
of coyotes on all lands
managed by the U.S.
Forest Service and the
National Park Service,
including
Kentucky
Fish and Wildlife-managed WMAs contained
within the boundaries
of these properties.
In
fisheries-related
business, anglers fishing on a sport fishing
license may keep one
blue and flathead catfish more than 35 inches long and one channel
catfish more than 28
inches long on the Ohio
River with no daily creel
limit on fish under those
limits. Anglers fishing
on a sport fishing license
may give Asian carp to
commercial anglers to
sell, but sport fishing
anglers may not accept
payment for the fish.
The next Kentucky
Fish and Wildlife Commission meeting will be
held at 8:30 a.m. (Eastern), Friday, March 7,
2014, at 1 Sportsman’s
Lane off U.S. 60 in
Frankfort. Persons interested in addressing
the commission must
notify the Kentucky
Fish and Wildlife Commissioner’s office in
writing at least 30 days
in advance of the committee meetings Feb. 4,
2014 to be considered
for placement on the
commission
meeting
agenda. People who are
hearing-impaired and
plan to attend the meeting should contact Kentucky Fish and Wildlife
at least 10 days in advance and the agency
will provide a translator. To request to address the commission,
write to Kentucky Fish
and Wildlife, 1 Sportsman’s Lane, Frankfort,
Kentucky, 40601.

Dec. 4 preliminary hearing.
Court documents allege that Peel sold two 15
mg oxycodone pills and a
single 30 mg oxycodone
pill to a confidential informant on August 2 for
$90.
Nicholas County Sheriff Jeff Sidles launched
the investigation but was
unable to testify during
the hearing due to services being held for a death
in his family.
Carlisle Police Offi-
cer Gary Kinder, who
has worked closely with
Sidles on multiple drug
trafficking
investigations, including the one
against Peel, testified
under direct questioning from Dawn Letcher,
County Attorney for
Nicholas County and under cross examination by
Peel’s attorney Matt Perdue.
Kinder testified that a
confidential
informant
had made the purchase
from Larry Bowles and
Peel was a passenger in
the Bowles vehicle at the
time of the purchase.
Did Mr. Peel handle
any pills?” Purdue asked.
“No sir,” Kinder testified.
“Did he handle any
money?”
“No,” Kinder answered.
“He was just present?”
Perdue asked.
“Yes,” Kinder replied.
Judge Kuster found
that “no probable cause”
had been established for
the charge.

On behalf of the EMTs and paramedics
formerly employed by First Med/
MedCorp and currently working for
Nicholas County EMS I would like to take
the opportunity to express my thanks
to Judge Pryor and the members of the
Fiscal Court who worked diligently to
provide the community with ambulance
coverage and continue our employment.
Being new compared to the Fire and
Police Services in this country EMS is
often forgotten. The Fiscal Court stepping
in to save the ambulance service shows
that they are dedicated to the health and
safety of the citizens of Nicholas County.

The Saltwell United
Methodist Women met
on Wednesday night at
the church Dec. 11, for
their Christmas meeting. There were 9 members and two children
present. Sharon Feeback
called the meeting to order. The purpose was
recited. Prayer requests
given and Phyllis Brady
prayed for these. The
missionaries were named
Phyllis Brady gave the
devotional. It was a reading entitled “the Manger was Empty.” Esther
Weidle gave such a good
program about “cups.”
First we each sung one
part of “the Twelve Days
of Christmas.” Which
had a religious meaning.
Most people don’t know
that. We each were given
a cup of hot chocolate. So

(Home)
many good illustrations
of “What kind of cup are
we?” Are used seasonal
or everyday? We may be
flawed or chipped or dirty
or damaged and in need
of cleansings. We may be
empty or full. Are we like
a pretty teacup on a shelf
only for show and never
used? Do we hold up under heat etc? We can be
so full of Christ that tour
cup overflows. At the end
of our program we sung
“Fill My Cup, Lord.” A
Christmas life will pour
out a cup of love and
cheer to others.
Mollie Smith read the
minutes of the last meeting and roll call was answered by naming our
favorite Christmas song.
We had 24 sick visits and
33 charities. Little Ansley Earlywine took up
the offering. Sharon Feeback read a good article
entitled “Signs of Immanuel” The project for
Dec is bringing Witner
wear for the needy. We
hang them on another
tree and had a tree full
of gloves, socks, scarves,
taboggins etc. Secret pal
gifts were exchanged and
new names drawn. Sharon gave everyone fudge
candy and Esther Weidle
had made everyone such
a cute snowman. Sharon
read our projects for each
month next year and
couple of them may be
changed. A list was made
of who to have meal each
month and who to give
program. In Dec. the
meal is potluck. Phyllis
Brady will have program
or lesson in Jan.
