Description

One of the attractions in the parade at the Borden County 50th anniversary celebration was the old mail hack (wagon) which was used to carry mail to Gail, Texas. Sitting in the small wagon are three men, all wearing suits and hats. The hack has four, large wheels and a sign on the side that reads, "Hack Line." In the background are a few cars riding alongside them and a few men walking in the opposite direction. The hack is attached on both ends and is being carried along through the parade.
