Changes in Ohio River lights announced yesterday by Lieut. Col. W. P. Stokey, superintendent, Fourteenth Lighthouse District, are as follows: Owensboro Bend Light No. 2 has been moved up the river 100 yards; French island light, No. 1, moved down river 150 yards; Diamond Island light, No. 1, will now be a day mark, as it was impossible to obtain a keeper; a new white light has been established at the Fayette Bar, and it will be known as light No. 2. The original light at the point will be maintained.

I happened to be talking to my brother Roger about a couple of other newpaper items about our grandfather's work on the Ohio River, and Roger figured that the waterways weren't as regulated back then as they are now. Reading this item, I'm not so sure, though there are probably additional environmental regulations now.
