My Mother on Wallace Bros. about 1940. She once told me that her Father had brought a well known Riding Instructor named Miller to the Orton Show to teach she and her sisters Dressage. She added that unfortunately for the rest of her riding career it was, "Give that "Knot-Headed" horse to Babe, she can handle him!"
