Dad, (William Orlando Bigelow), once purchased a beautiful horse. He was high spirited and would run away if he got half a chance. He was a wonderful walker. In any relay race he could out walk any other horse, but he would not trot, he always broke into a run so he was disqualified.
Mother, (Emily Selina Holt Bigelow), often drove Babe on the one-horse buckboard.
Babe was a wonderful saddle horse and easy as a rocking chair. Father loved to trade, but Babe was never traded and lived a long life owned by the Bigelows.
(Told by daughter Guinevere Bigelow Heninger)
