Dr. J. Smith Thomas' Horses

Sweetheart and Katie are pictured here, the third and fourth horses from the left, with the rest of Dr. J. Smith Thomas' stables. THe photo was taken around 1900. The men keeping this feisty bunch in line are from left to right: William Turner, Clyde THomas, Milton Turner, Frank Darrah, Forrest Darrah, Leslie W. Thomas, 'Dosh" Gilliland, 'Bud' Browning, Charles Willeford and Dr. R. P. Wells.

The tombstone (left) marking the faithful horses' resting place expresses the endearment Dr. J. Smith Thomas (above) felt.
