MR. BEN HATFIELD, of Glasgow, Barren county, Ky., was born in A. D. 
1844.  He fought to free the negro in the time of the Civil War, and 
enlisted at the age of 16.  When 30 years of age he professed a hope in 
Christ and joined the Oak Grove Missionary Baptist church, the church 
then chose him for a deacon and he faithfully served in that office for 
40 years.  He is a well known citizen of Barren County, owning a farm on 
the Scottsville pike, three miles west of Glasgow, worth about eight to 
nine thousand dollars.
