| Mural Of Kentuckians At Paducah |
From The Devil's Backbone, The Story of the Natchez Trace...:
"Already (in March, 1806) 'Kaintuck' described a kind of man and not merely a place of habitation. General Jackson at the Battle of New Orleans described only their mildest marks of identification." 'I never met a Kentuckian,' he (General Andrew Jackson) said, 'who did not have a rifle, a pack of cards and a bottle of whiskey."
