raid on Hopkinavillo Dec 7 was Mr John Latham of NAW rk who owned the Latham warehouse the filSti building destroyed by the night rid I erStMr Lathams loss was probably 20000 or 26000 and the loss t1fnlJs upon a man who has for thirty years been the greatest benefactor and philanthropist the people of Hopkinsville have had to call upon in their needs No call upon him has ever passed unheeded Twenty or more years ago when the first union turnpikes were build in the county Mr Latham invested 60000 to build the turnpikes made free in 1901 The people of several sections of Christian county are now reaping the benefits of his liberality and pro gressive ideas in the development of his native county In 1886 itrwas his generosity that gathered together the bones of 101 Confederate soldiers who died in this IJ city during the war and erected over their common grave a monument to 1 their valor at a cost of more thani 20000 In every railroad enter 1 prise every publicspirited move ment on every subscription to aid a 1 public building his name has always I aa been on the list usually at the head When the city was in dire need of a first clttss hotel he came forward with a proposition to subscribe as much as the whole city would contribute and the result was the elegant Hotel Latham that cost more than 100000 He gave largely to Baptist church of which his father was a member and has always been heavy contributor to the Episcopal church the church of his mother There is scarcely a church in this city white or colored that he has not given to when called upon His smaller benefactions have been al mot countless Hundreds of people of Hopkinsville have been made happy by his assistance in one way or another Some years ago he constructed in Riverside cemetery a splendid mausoleum for the Latham family which is one of the chief attractions of our beautiful city of the dead Only last year on the old homestead just across the street from where the raiders destroyed I his property he spent 10000 in improving I and adorning the house where his childhood was spent That the wrath of the night riders should have fallen so heavily upon Mr Latham sick as he was a thousand miles away in no way to blame for the tobacco troubles of Kentucky is one of the keenest regrets of the people of Hop kinsville It is said that Mr Latham feels deeply the I blow and will not
