The Annie Fellows Johnston Room
This room is named for the popular 19th Century author of books for young
people (and the young at heart). She was often a guest here and her fondness for the
Culbertson children
led her to adopt them as the characters Malcolm and Keith, the "Two Little
Knights of Kentucky," who play a significant role throughout the Little Colonel
stories

room you will find mementos of Mrs. Johnston and the "Two Little Knights of Kentucky,"
including a complete vintage set of the Little Colonel books, and a

19th Century Pulitzer Prize winning editor of The Courier-Journal
