    Was this when they were moving from the first Mint to the Granite Lady?

    Is the purpose mentioned anywhere?? If it was a major move, I imagine it was more than one horse and a large buggy....Cheers, RickO

    Yep.

    Q: Who fed and watered the horse. Did he take the horse home at night and give it a place to sleep?
