Description
The crumbling horse trough which has stood at the southeast corner of the Courthouse Square for 48 years is to be razed to make way for modern paving, but it will be restored elsewhere as a historic monument. On the statue, in stone, reads "Gude masters a' his weel earned due ye humble beastie gie; Justice an'mercy's blessings flow nae less for him than ye." A group of employees of the City of Fort Worth are standing around, looking at the statue.
