West Jersey Horse Show Trophy 1913

In September 1913, E.T. Stotesbury entered a fine pair of trotters in the West Jersey Horse Show at Collingswood. They were the matching bay mares Ruby (7 years, 15.1 1/2) and Lasca (5 years, 15.1 1/2). The pair won first prize in the show for Class 37--Pair of Roadsters (trotter) suitable for road work. The judging was based on horse 50 per cent and appointment 50 per cent. The sterling silver trophy cup (shown below) was donated by Fred M.
