Saturday, February 17, 1900: One hundred and twenty-five years ago today, The Knoxville Sentinel reported news with a dateline from Johnson City. Readers learned that “It is positively announced here that ex-Gov. R. L. Taylor has bought a residence in Knoxville from Col. William Caswell. ‘Our Bob’ expects to make his home in Knoxville in winter, and will spend the summers at his Johnson City home. This information is gained from Dr. Walter J. Miller, Gov.
