CHAPMAN CASON.  Near the little village of Sherman is a tract of 700 acres
of the best land in the county of Grant.  Once not long ago it belonged
to one of Grant county's pioneer settlers, Louis Cason.  He is dead and
buried now and his son, Chapman Cason, does the honors where he once lived
and reigned "the lord of all he surveyed."  It is an old tradition that he
was offered, even before land became high, the sum of $70,000.00 for his
tract of land but refused to take it.  He lived and died a true and model
Kentucky citizen and Chapman Cason is the progeny of this character.
     "Chap" was born and raised on the farm and lives on the farm to this
day and is one of the best farmers in this state.  He cultivates tobacco,
corn, wheat and rye and usually raises a little more per acre than any of
his neighbors.  He is kindly and genial, a good friend and a good neighbor,
and what more could any man be in this life?  One of these days he will own
all of the broad acres once owned by his father and will be one of the rich
men of the county.  He is a Democrat in politics who asks no questions, but
votes the ticket and does all he can in his humble way to assist the party.
