Mrs. Bessie T. Crawford, retiring business woman. She bought three Shetland ponies and installed them in a little corral near the old board walk at Lake Worth and charged 10 cents a ride. She is retiring after 23 years of operating her pony ride business and still amazed and happy of the way the business prospered. A woman with a way with the kids and Shetlands, a ready laugh and plenty of happy recollections. In the picture you can see her wearing a striped skirt suit, a patterned collared shirt and she is standing in front of the doorway of her house.
