They were Samuel McDowell, who died in 1830, and his wife who died in 1816. A portion of Mrs. McDowell's coffin was well preserved, showing the walnut wood and the velvet bound to the wood by brass tacks. From this same Mercer county farm the remains of Gov. Adair and wife were 16 years ago taken to the Frankfort cemetery. In the Danville cemetery in addition to those placed there Tuesday, and in the same lot, are the bodies of Col. Joseph McDowell and wife, Judge Samuel McDowell, the eminent jurist, and wife.
