Crowd at horse breaking demonstration turns tragic death
A large crowd attended a horse breaking demonstration at John Strottman and Sons farm in Maxfield township. Iowa horse and mule breeders secretary Harry D. Linn, who has broken over five thousand horses, died after a western broncho ruptured a neck blood vessel during the event. The five year old horse belonged to Mike Rosol of Washington township and was deemed too vicious to break by its owner. Linn had the horse examined by a veterinarian, then the demonstration continued with other horses. Coddington & Laird supplied a truck and lunch for spectators.
