  • Nature, Animals
“Prince” was a horse that originally belonged to Nell (Carrroll) Thornton in Houlton, Maine. Prince apparently died while staying with the Carroll Family in Southwest Harbor. Archivists were surprised at the number of Carroll family photographs of or featuring the horse, each lovingly labeled with his name. This letter attests to the family’s attachment to Prince.
