Description

Oliver Gilmore Keown, LL.B.

Hartford, Kentucky

We do not see much of Keown where squirrels are common fed,

But he helped win a war in Europe where squirrels dared not tread.

For six long years he’s been a victim of wedlock’s holy ties,

But, withal, he’s a promising lawyer, and we expect to see him rise.

-The Kentuckian, 1923
