Ran'l McCoy's final months (1914) #Appalachia #history #HatfieldMcCoyFeud #feuds

Oral history relating to Randolph “Ran’l” McCoy’s final years is scant. Most historians rely upon Truda Williams McCoy’s book The McCoys: Their Story (1976) for information about his life. Here are a few news items which may in some part be reliable that provides more information about Ran’l and his final months of life.

Republicans for Kamala is taking off and includes some high profile former office holders and staffers. This is more than just the usual handful of mid level and obscure officials.

At least three former governors including Jim Edgar of Illinois (1991-1999) have publicly announced their support for the candidacy of Vice President Kamala Harris.

Nine days into her 2024 candidacy, Vice President Kamala Harris picked a couple of notable Republican endorsements: Former Georgia Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan threw his support behind the Democrat fairly quickly, and John Giles, the mayor of Mesa, Arizona’s third-largest city, endorsed her soon after. Given the state of the cotemporary GOP, it’s not easy for any Democratic candidate to pick up cross-party backing, so this represented a decent start. But hanging overhead was an obvious question: Would other Republicans soon follow? The question received a rather emphatic answer over the weekend. NBC News reported: >> The Harris campaign on Sunday unveiled more than two dozen endorsements from Republicans, including former governors, members of Congress and Trump administration officials. Many of the endorsements came from politicians who were already openly critical of former President Donald Trump, including former Republican Gov. Bill Weld of Massachusetts; former Rep. Denver Riggleman, R-Va.; and former Trump administration press secretary Stephanie Grisham.<< Those names are, of course, just a sampling. According to a press statement from the incumbent vice president’s campaign, Republicans for Harris includes endorsements from former Trump White House officials Stephanie Grisham and Olivia Troye; former Secretaries Chuck Hagel and Ray LaHood; former Governors Jim Edgar, Bill Weld, and Christine Todd Whitman; former U.S. House members Rod Chandler, Tom Coleman, Dave Emery, Wayne Gilchrest, Jim Greenwood, Adam Kinzinger, John LeBoutillier, Susan Molinari, Jack Quinn, Denver Riggleman, Claudine Schneider, Christopher Shays, Peter Smith, Alan Steelman, David Trott, and Joe Walsh; and former GOP State Chair and State Senator Chris Vance, among others. “As a proud conservative, I never thought I��d be endorsing a Democrat for President,” Kinzinger said in a written statement. “But, I know Vice President Harris will defend our democracy and ensure Donald Trump never returns to the White House. Donald Trump poses a direct threat to fundamental American values. He only cares about himself, and his pursuit of power. “That’s what we saw on January 6 when he sent a mob to overturn our lawful election, who violently attacked law enforcement and ransacked our nation’s Capitol in the process,” the former member of the Jan. 6 committee added. “There’s too much at stake to sit on the sidelines, which is why I wholeheartedly endorse Kamala Harris for president. Now is the time for us all to unite to save our democracy and defeat Donald Trump one last time.”

I FEEL LIKE THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT MOMENT OF MY LIFE.

I work as a receptionist at the Center for Autism Spectrum Disorders where I live.

On Halloween, we’re having an office party, and I decided to dress up as Pam Beesly from The Office. We’re both receptionists, we both work with watercolor, and we wear almost the same styles to work.

I usually stay in my office to answer phones and emails, but my boss has given me a special task for the day of our Halloween party.

I get to stand outside the screening rooms and HAND OUT CANDY TO THE CHILDREN WHO COME IN FOR AUTISM SCREENINGS.

How cute is that?! I feel like this will be the sweetest moment of my entire life.

It’s also totally something Pam would do! I remember that episode where all the office workers took their kids to work and Pam put out extra candy on her desk to get the kids to come and talk to her, and I feel like I’m getting that full circle moment here.

…..

I also have to save all the black jelly beans for Dwight.

Remember that time Trumpers asked a Navajo House of Representatives member if he was here legally?

Oh, and yelled at brown 10 year olds that they were illegal and needed to leave America?

Yeahno, I 100% believe Trump would revoke all our citizenships in a heartbeat. Vote BLUE.

Black Phone/Stranger Things Crossover Idea

(or another one at least)

Gwen and Steve Harrington must team up with their friends when Finney is kidnapped by a serial killer.

However, their investigation gets complicated when Robin Buckleys estranged father; Albert Shaw, becomes a suspect.

For this AU…

No Hawkins Lab or Upside Down.

Steve is Finney and Gwen’s older brother (He takes care of them more than their parents do)

Robin Buckley is related to The Grabber, and their relationship is… complicated, to say the least.

Vance is Hoppers son and Els’ brother. Still debating on his fate here.

Dustin and Griffin are half-brothers.

Gwen and Finney are friends with The Party

More ideas to come.

The new Hopper part 3

Part 2

Part 1

Vance hadn't realised how much he'd missed Finney till he was curled up in his arms.

He didn't like to think of his time in the basement.

None of them did.

But if there was one almost happy memory of that place was how he and the others would sleep.

The Grabber... Liked to watch.

And they were afraid he'd take one of them in the night.

Maybe kill them off or worse.

And so they would take the mattress and the thin sheet and lay it over them all.

They slept all curled up in a tangle of arms and legs.

It made them feel grounded, solid in the knowledge that they weren't alone.

Feeling each others hearts beat in synch, knowing they were alive.

They weren't alone.

Vance could feel the phantom sensation of Billy's back on his side, said boy resting his head on Bruce.

Who was sandwiched between Robin and Griffin.

And Finney... Finney fell asleep in Vance's arms, just like he did now.

It had been so bizarre, near laughable, for someone as small and frightful as Finney to feel comfort in the arms of Vance Hopper.

Now?

Now it was like putting a bandaid on a wound.

Vance let his curls fall on Finney's face, letting him know he was here.

And if Finney's grip on Vance's shoulder tightened for a second before loosening.

Well that was between them.

He had questions, so many but he didn't care. For the first time since he'd left Denver, Vance felt at peace.

The rest of the rooms occupants looked at them, in shock yes because everything since Vance had entered had been one mind blown after the other.

But this, this they looked at with fondness and quietly went back to their meal.

It had been a long time since they'd seen Steve so relaxed.

Robin held up a slice of Pizza to Vance, who with a snort chomped it, eating it all up.

God he was starving.

He didn't want to let go of Finney though, anxiety pooled in his stomach.

He knew it was fine but the idea of letting him go felt like he'd dissappear again.

Robin didn't seem bothered, simply holding up another slice for Vance to munch on."

Man there almost as werid as Robin and Steve." Said Dustin.

Vance looked up, squinting at him "... Dustin... Wait YOUR Henderson?" He asked, putting 2 and 2 together.

Now he wasn't distracted by seeing his friend in person again, Vance realised he had heard the names of everyone in the room in Finney's letters and calls home.

"So your the legendary Dustin Henderson I've heard so much about." Dustin practically preened under the praise. "That I am, what's Steve say about me?"

"That your hella smart, your funny, you got wicked hair." Vance's smile morphed into a smirk as Dustin preened became more and more. "And your a complete and total butt head."

Eddie laughed so hard he fell off the sofa. "He's got you there, Henderson." Dustin huffed. "That he loves like a brother" finished Vance, Dustin blinked and than beamed.

Eddie looked at Vance "sooo, your Steve's mystery best friend?"

Vance snorted "Nah that's her" pointing to Robin who grinned. "He's my friend, he's everything to me" said Vance simply, smiling down at his friend as he snored softly.

He felt tears well up in his eyes.

"I've missed him."

Eddie softened "hey, he seems glad to see you too. Though I didn't expect an ol friend of Steve's to be soo... Nice.... Er... No offence."

Vance snorted "nah I'm a grade A asshole just you wait." Eddie grinned "ohhh? Oh do share."

Vance shook his head with a smirk "nope, you'll have to figure it yourself, Eddie."

Eddie grinned wider, rolling over with a hand on his heart. "Oh, the honour of Stevies friend knowing me, I could just faint. Oh be still my beating heart!" Vance couldn't help but laugh at his antics.

Eddie got up from the floor and bowed.

"I'll admit, wasn't expecting you to have a secret sister Cheif." He said looking at Hop who was having some water.

"There's a lot you don't know about me Munson... And no I'm not going to tell you." He said deadpanned at Eddie's hopeful look.

"Oh I'll figure it out one way or another, scouts honour." Hopper shook his head, turning from Eddie's ridiculous salute to look at Vance.

Finney, gripped his shoulder tightly because even in his sleep he knew when one of his friends needed him.

Vance let out a deep breath.

Hopper kept his distance and tried to look as non-threatening as possible. "How is your mum anyway?"

"She's fine... Well not fine but" Vance ran a hand through his hair. One the kids, Robin and Eddie recognised as the same thing Steve did when he was nervous.

Something he'd picked up from Vance.

It was worrying how carefree and happy Vance had been up until now where he looked skittish.

Robin shuffled up beside him till there knees were touching, and Vance felt a wave of gratitude for her.

Sure he'd met Robin prior but it was over the phone and here she was making sure he was okay.

"Erm... She.. I... She's gotten into gardening recently. Mrs Miller across the street has this big ol rose bush and Ma thinks it's the best thing since sliced bread. Got a bunch of plants and pots all around the house."

He was rambling and he knew it.

His relieve came from Argyle of all people who nodded sagely "gotta respect a lady who knows her plants." Vance nodded, feeling some of his anxiety ease.

He tried to brush off that he probably looked pathetic but no one was judging him.

"Sorry I don't know who you are..."

Argyle smiled, giving him a side hug without touching him "names Argyle."

Vance appreciated that, he didn't like to be touched by anyone who wasn't one the boys or his Ma.

His blood ran cold.

The boys... He'd forgotten to check in.

"I need a phone" He said. Hopper raised an eyebrow, Vance looked away from him. "I need the phone... Is there a phone I can use?"

It took all of his self restraint plus Finney not to yell it.

He needed a phone... Now.

"Hey" said Jonathan, "I'll show you it." Robin gently took the sleeping puddle known as Finney out of his arms and he clung to her like a koala.

Vance didn't want to let him go but he needed to check in.

He followed Jonathan to the phone and tried not to rapidly type the number in.

On the second ring it was answered.

"Billy!.. PB, you there?!"

Nothing.

He knew it! He was too late, he was too late he was to-

"Yeah?! Yeah! Yeah I'm here. Robin's in the bathroom. Griffin's sat here petting Rosie with me, Bruce is here."

"Hey!"

"Hi!"

Vance breathed a sigh of relief, slumping against the wall and digging his fingers through his hair.

"Fuck! I'm sorry...I forgot to get the phone number and to check in but we came to some house dinner thing."

Shame and embarrassment welled up inside him. Could've leave for one day without messing up.

"It's okay man, you were in a rush and we're okay. We're all okay. Are you okay?" Asked Bruce.

Vance nodded before remembering Bruce couldn't see him. He took a few deep breathes "yeah.. Yeah I'm okay."

A now, awake Finney yawned and walked over and took the phone from Vance and squeezed his shoulder.

"Hey Bruce."

Bruce said hi back before the phone was snatched from him.

A scuffle happened over the phone line before "Hey Finn" was heard, loud and clear. Finney's face lit up like a star in his beloved sky.

"Robin!"

The two of them began catching up like they hadnt spoken earlier.

Vance rested his head on Finney's shoulder, he could just picture them all at Billy's and sighed, relaxing at their familiar voices.

"Oi! Arellano stop hogging the fucking phone." He said though he knew it would fall on deaf ears.

Anything that wasn't Finney Blake didn't matter to him at the moment.

Vance left them too it though he added his snarky input here and there until a happy Finney handed him the phone.

"And Bobbins here" said Vance, letting Robin hear the boys hi and hellos which she returned back with vigor.

She definitely belonged in their werid hodge podge of a friend group.

"Oh wait, is my cousin there? He said he was staying in Hawkins." Asked Robin, saying something that wasn't shout Finney for the first time in a while.

"Your cousin?" Asked Vance he looked at Finney but he looked just as confused.

"May I? " Asked Argyle, taking the phone. "Robin my man, how are you!"

Vance and Finney both stood in confused silence, neither having any idea what was going on.

"I'm sorry does everyone have a secret family member we don't know about?!" Asked Eddie.
