Misfortune In Kentucky
The pleasant old home might never
have sheltered the great woodsman
but for the misfortune that caused
him to leave Kentucky. When Ken
tucky became a state In 1791 Boone
did not file legal claim to the land
he held there. Land operators forced
him to relinquish his 'holdings
through civil courts and the Impov-
erlsbed pioneer had to atrike out In
search for a new home for the fourth
time In his career.
Boone returned to the scene of his
childhood, but left because of the
change worked by the swift sdvance
of civilization. After a ahort visit
and he was accorded a warm reoep
tlon.
When Boone settled with his son
In the Femme Osage district he had
been a subject or citizen under five
flags. Born before the revolution, ne
lived his early life a subject of
George II and George in of England,
After the revolution he became a cit
izen of the United States. He was at
one time a citizen of the- temporary
nation. Transylvania. The Shawnee
Indian tribe adopted blm as a son
and citizen. Then he became a aub
Ject of Charles IV of Spain, and later,
of Napoleon. He died under the
United States flag In the first year
of Missouri's statehood.

brother, John, Is the present owner.
The stone house, which ' changed
hands many times, was bought In
1904 by 'a farmer, Henry Bollman.
Bollman sold It to Col. Curlee In
1925.
Boone's youngest son. Major Na
than Boone, built the house In 1810,
taking almost two years to complete
the Job because the plaster had to
be burled during the winter to
"ripen." All cutting and finishing
was done with an adze.
The walls are two and a half feet
thick. Their extraordinary thickness
makes the house warm In winter
and cool In summer.

During his sojourn at the Point,

with dreams ot a new land to explore
beyond the Mississippi. Boone again
struck out for a new home.

The Spanish government, then in

to settle the land, welcomed emi
