From the local Shelbyville Newspaper, Ed Observer, April 11, 1912
For the benefit or information of your readers who may not know, I will
state that Chestnut Ridge is situated on the Shelbyville and
Fayetteville pike, fourteen miles from Fayetteville and twelve miles
from Shelbyville, and to all appearances about the middle of the world
as the sky seems to touch the earth at about the same distance all
around. We have two dry goods stores, one blacksmith shop, one grist mill, one church (Christian), one school house, Masonic hall, Odd Fellows' Hall, and Woodman's Hall. Besides, we have clever men, pretty women, and very fine water. Don't everybody come here for there is not enough room for all.... Anonymous Author |
