  5. A good friend of mine back in the '70's was from Hillsville. Long since gone Home but what I learned from him doing mechanical work has served me well. Visited his family there on several occasions. Also acquainted with 3-4 of his fellow "Hillsvillians" that also lived locally. Father of one of the old boys came up to visit one weekend. Paraphrasing now; shaking hands, the slow speaking gent introduced himself saying; "I'm XX from Hillsville, that's where the Carroll County courthouse shootout occurred. Took it in a full 36" stride as all my people are from Franklin or Henry County, Virginia.
