Excerpt from From Coast to Coast: The Only Man to Drive a Single Horse Across the Continent, Starting at Catalina Island, California, and Finishing at Coney Island, New York; Complete Story of This Wonderful Trip as Told by the Author Fanny for Handsome Dick, so that the short-cared little rascal became the property of the author of this book. Nelly was delighted to get the chance to make the trade as she could not handle Dick, so by the change she was mark happy and so was the author. Now I had the great little stallion that was to be the Champion long-distance Horse of the Union. Some of my friends looked at him and said, No Good, too small. But the author smiled and made no reply but kept his business to himself, telling no one what he was going to do. The author believes in doing a thing and telling of it after it is done. He never says I am gomg to do a thing but gets out and does it. Dick was trained in The Circle City till he was two and one-half years old, then the writer moved to Santa Monica, Cal., and there he was trained for one year. The author is a trainer who trained under that famous old horseman, Professor Magnor of Battle Creek, Michigan. That grand old man knew how to handle horses and from him the writer learned his lesson and learned it well. The author knows that good old man's secrets and knows them well. The author of this book has a memory that serves him well and this case has proved it in many ways and to this memory he owes his success in this, hls great trip. The author hoped to make this little horse the most famous and most talked about horse in the U. S. A. And in the world today.
