Postcard: Beaumont Inn, Harrodsburg, KY.

"Phone 249 - C.C. DEDMAN, Manager
Here, amid century old forest trees, serenely remote from the noise and dust of a work-a-day world, is Beaumont Inn- once the beloved Daughter's College of our mother's and grandmother's day, later Beaumont College. Fashioned in true Colonial style, with spacious halls and broad galleries, it breathes the spirit of peace and of welcome. And there is old country ham and yellow-legged chickens and beaten biscuits served in a way that suggests another and perhaps a better day. Come and let us bid you welcome. Rooms with or without bath."

This postcard, canceled in 1949 and carrying a 1 cent stamp was sent from a son to his mother in Kansas. He says that it is supposed to be one of the 10 best places to eat in the US.

This postcard left Kentucky for Kansas in 1949 and returned in 2010.
