FOR YOUR INFORMATION
RIVER TREE FARM
A recent letter from Mrs. Jean Baum, Ixonia, Wis
consin, contained sad news of the death of their good
stud, RED BOMBER.
Mrs. Baum wrote: "Just when he was getting along
so beautifully, and we thought we’d have him home
in a couple of weeks. The results of the autopsy are
not complete, so we don’t know why - but I guess
the veterinarians axe as shocked and frustrated as
we. It’s been such a long siege (over four months)
and just when everything seems finally OK, this hap
pens! The whole family is pretty sad.”
Our sympathy goes to Mr. and Mrs. Leo Baum on
the loss of their fine horse.
R&R STABLES
The big news out of the R & R Stables is the recent
sale of RODGERS ACE by Howard Roberts to Adam
and Maxine Thomann of Salem, Missouri. This fine
stud recently made his first appearance in the show
ring at Shenandoah, tying reserve in the Open Class
for his proud new owners. The horse will stay at R&R
under the capable hands of Howard Roberts.
Howard also won the Junior Class at this show on
HANDSHAKER’S JOY, a real good mare. The fourth
spot in this class went to MAGIC’S BETTY WHITE
and owner Ronnie Blackwell. This was Ronnie’s initial
ride in the show ring and he did an excellent job.
The new National Half-Walker Association has se
lected Howard Roberts to be its state representative
for Missouri. Howard will no doubt be a big asset to
this fine organization.

CLARENCE GEESLIN INJURED IN ACCIDENT
We received word during the latter part of Decem
ber that Clarence Geeslin of Georgetown, Ohio had
been badly injured in an accident which occurred
near Rome, Kentucky. He was en route from Tennes
see to Ohio with two fillies in a van when the acci
dent took place.
As of December 20, Mr. Geeslin was in Christ Hos
pital in Cincinnati with a broken back, and the doc
tors were unable to determine if he would be para
lyzed as a result of the break. We have had no fur
ther information on his condition, but know that he
would appreciate hearing from his friends in the Walk
ing Horse business.
Friends in Ohio are helping with the store, the
horses and the farm.
Mr. Geeslin’s home address is Maple Leaf Farms
Route 1, Box 236A, Georgetown, Ohio 45121. Cor
