Mule Wins Race With Bob Martin's Car, Nov. 26, 1920

If anybody wants to know whether a black mule can run, let him ask one Bob Martin. To explain, Mr. Martin tried to drive his car faster than the mule ran, but had to turn to the woods. Neil Clark then stepped out of the car, waved the mule back and a boy on a bicycle halted the animal as it was stretching its legs for the home stretch on the Rhodhiss road. The buggy drawn by the mule was not damaged. (From the Hickory Daily Record, Nov. 26, 1920)
