"During the war, Porter's home was demolished by the Guerillas, and he and his wife were forced to flee for their lives and selected Homer as a good hiding place, where they have since made their home.
"Mr. Campbell was a man possessed of a high sense of honor and integrity. He was prominent and influential and his advise on financial and religious matters was often asked. He was a grand old man in every respect and Logan County, Homer especially, will feel deeply and keenly, the taking away of one of their best citizens and neighbors." The Democrat - Russellville, KY
