The Darrell Young summit of Jamestown Hill is almost leveled now, flatter'n Waco, and signs for the new CVS Pharmacy building are prominently in place.

The top of the known world, for a townie in those days was two thirds up the northwest corner tree on the Young property; before The Levelization of Adair County began in ernest -correstion: "earnest," Oscar Wilde's to blame! - in the post World War II era.
