SOME OLD PHOTOS WERE LOANED TO ME FOR THIS DAILY. LOWER RIGHT
IS OF MAQUOKETA'S FAMOUS RACE HORSE "BILLY THE GREAT".
APPARENTLY IN THE LOW-40'S WHEN THE JACKSON COUNTY FAIR WAS NOT HELD BECAUSE OF THE WAR, MAQUOKETA DID HOST HARNESS RACES
AND ALSO A PRETTY LARGE HORSE SHOW.
HARRIS PENROSE WAS A LONGTIME BUSINESSMAN AND CATTLEMAN
IN MAQUOKETA.
NANCY JO MOORE STILL LIKES HORSES.
NOT A VERY NICE DAY TODAY....A COUPLE HOURS OF SNOW.
