Horse Traders

This is from March 31, 1909 in the Adams County Free Press. I've been doing a lot of research on Wm. P. Hall. I've done enough to be giving a presentation on him at the CHS convention in July of this year. Known as the "Horse King of the World", he wasn't the only trader in town.

The next ad is for Bert McClain who was Billy Hall's main buyer and right hand man for over 40 years.

The rest of these ads are for other horse buyers who all appearred in the same sales barns that Billy Hall has been found buying horses in.
