[Scott County]  [Georgetown City and Precinct]

PROF. R. L. GARRISON, Georgetown, was born in Boone County, Ky., in 1846,
and when a boy moved to Owen County; he attended Georgetown College four
years, reached the senior year, and left in 1875, to take charge of the
Georgetown Public Schools, since which time he has retained the office of
Principal, being an earnest and efficient worker.  The schools were in a
deplorable condition when he took them in charge, but he commenced at the
foundation and renovated the entire system, making and carrying out a good
and thorough course of study; he has three departments and six grades. When
he began he had about sixty pupils, and now enrolls 128. His work deserves
special commendation, both as to education and discipline.
