This Day in History: 1902-01-28

Mr. Carpenter has spent the last few weeks traveling through New York, New Jersey and Massachusetts searching for a truly superior horse for the Crocker Farm.  In New York he bought the handsome trotting stallion King Muscovite who has won several blue ribbons in western shows and has a record of 2:21 1/4.  He now graces the stall formerly occupied by Kentucky Prince, sold by Mr. Darling for $10,700.
