LOOKING BACK: A weekly historical news feature

By Dorothy Brush / dcb1@frontier.net

June 1903

With oil gushing from wells in paying quantities some 40 miles north of us and bright indications of like results 30 miles south of us it would seem Cumberland County is likely to become an oil producing district as well as holding large coal deposits.

Crab Orchard — Work has begun on the new Presbyterian Church.

Linaria — The bark peeling is about over.

Judge Cordell Hull made an excellent impression on the people of the county in his conduct of the Circuit Court here last week. We have rarely heard such unbounded praise bestowed on a judge on the bench here as was accorded Judge Hall.

June 1938

Mrs. Laverne Tabor submitted the winning title of Meadow Park Lake for the newly completed lake which will furnish water for Crossville. She received ten dollars.

Plans are now complete for a post graduate course in obstetrics which will be offered in Crossville by a Chicago specialist. The course will be given over a ten-week period. Many local and nearby physicians have signed up for the course. All registered nurses are also allowed to attend the lectures.

Work on the new $18,000 movie theater is going along in good shape. The front is to be veneered with Crab Orchard stone. The inside of the walls will be the new material — cinder blocks — and it will be veneered with brick. William Garrison, owner, will have his law office in the building.

June 1993

Local VORP (Victim Offender Reconciliation Program) volunteers have been recognized throughout the state for their efforts in pushing for the State Legislature to vote the Victim-Offender Mediation Center Act of 1993 into law. With its passage the volunteers were full of praise for the assistance of State Senator Anna Belle O’Brien and State Representative Shirley Duer who were co-sponosrs of the act.
