Capt. Stephen Samuel Cole, Indian tight' er, veteran it the Mexican and Civil wars, has served the United Slates seventy-five years, and at the age of ninety-five still helps to keep green a national cemetery where his comrades sleep. According to a writer in the Louisville Times, Captain Cole attributes his longevity to a lesson taught him by his mother: "Do right and just by all mankind.

If you can not say a good word for a man, never say a bad one You may do a great injustice. Have good neighbors and friends by be' ing neighborly and friendly with those about you. Then you'll have no worries and live to ripe age." Captain Cole, according to this same chronicler, stands six feet, weighs 175 pounds, walks with soldierly erectness, has no use for a cane, reads without glasses, shoots squirrels out of tree-tops, and bowls over rabbits. And this notwithstanding that he has endured the hardships of pioneer days and has been twice wounded. The brief biography continues: As keeper of the National cemetery at Is'elson, Jessamine county, the "eteran warrior keeps sentinel-like guard over the graves more than five thousand sleeping comrades of the Civil war.

He is still in the employ "of the best government the world has known," the only employer he has ever worked for.

Going into Mexico with regular troops when the Mexican war developed, he was with Gen. Zaehary Taylor in the battle of Euena Vista.
