If you notice the change in my address from Hum
boldt, Tennessee, this is due to my family’s moving
to Meridian, Mississippi where my father, M. D. Ellis,
was elected Executive Vice President of the First
National Bank in Meridian. I am going to miss some
of my good friends in West Tennessee and Kentucky,
like Jimmy Waddell, Ted Baier, Tom Banks, Dr. Kuhl-
man and his daughter Susie, Dr. Barker, Neil Robin
son, Coon Jones, Dickie Wood, Chalmus Davenport,
and Dee Bufford. I understand that Dee will be show
ing a new horse next year and I certainly wish her a
lot of success. I hope to see some of them next sum
mer at the shows. I am very lucky to have my horse,
JET, in training here in Meridian at the Mai Graham
Stables with Baine Lee as trainer, and I will be show
ing out of this stable next year. Baine is working
about ten horses at present, and some of the out
standing ones are: a two-vear-old mare, PHIL’S LIT
TLE ANGEL, owned by Mr. Graham; a three-year-old
called PHIL’S PRINCE PHILLIP, ridden by Art Har
well and owned by Art’s Record Mart. Mrs. Jewel
Graham shows her outstanding Reserve World Cham
pion Gelding, MAYFLOWER MOVER. Mr. and Mrs.
Larry Edwards have their horse, CLOWN’S DOING
DOLL, in training here. Another outstanding mare,
MOON MIST, is owned and shown by Beth Gaillard.
JET PARADES MIDNIGHT, owned by Mr. Graham,
was shown last year as a three-year-old and is quite
an outstanding horse. Baine has won many blue rib
bons and is looking for an even better season next
year.
They have many fine horses in this area and some
very fine trainers, such as Jack Moorman at Forest,
Miss., Jimmy Holloway at West, Miss., and Ronnie
Spears at West Point, Miss.
Our 1967 tri-state show season ended with the al
ways great LaCrosse Riding Club Show in LaCrosse,
Wisconsin on September 16 and 17. The weather was
beautiful and the Walking Horse classes were well
filled. Results of this show are printed elsewhere in
this issue.
The Minnesota Tennessee Walking Horse Associ
ation is now in its initial stages, and has had two
general meetings. The first meeting was held at Kan-
tell Farm in Hamel, Minnesota, and the second meet
ing was hosted by Hank-Mur Farm of Rosemount,
Minnesota. This organization is being formed by per
sons who are interested in Tennessee Walking Horses
- whether they exhibit, ride for pleasure, or simply
admire them. Temporary officers appointed were: Mr.
George Stotesbery, Minneapolis, president; Miss The
resa Lane, Minneapolis, secretary; and Miss Carlene
Holt, Stillwater, treasurer. Anyone interested in learn
ing more details about this newly-formed association
should contact: Miss Theresa Kay Lane, 5400 Elliott
Ave., So., Minneapolis, Minnesota.
