Florse magazirre and wish you great success with this magazine as we feel therc is great need for it.
" Enclosed is a rough copy of what we thought should go in the magazine. ' Ihe family group, as was in the
Celebration magazine, we feel is a little dated, particularly with regard to our daughter, Jan, who is the primary reason we are in the Tennessee
Walking Horse business. Also included is a picture of Jan and our trainer, Bill Moore, showing trophies which brings her up to date
" I tried to get my father ro rvrite you why he has been interested in thc
Tennessec Walking Horse for such a long time, but had no success. Our interest in Tennessee Walking Horses started with my Mother and Father ' s Iove of riding-we think there is no better pleasure than riding a Tennessee \ 4ralking FIorse. " Father and Mother ride near every day whcn wcather permits. Father is 78 years old., l \ s I statcd, rny interest is with my l0-ycar-old daughter. This will be the fourth season she has sholvn Tennessee Walking Horses. We keep lrom 20 to 25 horses in training and oul trainer is Bill Moore from Calhoun, Geolgia, rvho ' n ' as lolmcrly associatcd with Davis Blos, at Calhoun and G ] enn Turner of Dallas, ' fexas.
" I show horses occasionally and we intend to corltinue with the Tennessec \ Valking llorses-breeding and sho ' rving. l { ost of our horses are } Iiclnight
