History On a crisp and sunny April 29, a group of Dan Patch Historical Society members were caught on camera on their way to hold a small ceremony at Dan Patch's burial site in remembrance of his 112th birthday. The site of Dan's grave is a tightly-guarded secret. Pictured here (from left to right) are George Augustinack, Jens Bohn and Jim Ross. The trio carried a picture of Dan and one of his horseshoes, a floral arrangement, binoculars and a shovel to make a spot for the flowers.

Send it to snapshots@savagepacer.com Author hopes book gives insight into famous pacerMay 1, 2008 - 2:24pm — Tom Schardin By Tom Schardin, Staff Writer New York author Charles Leerhsen spent two years digging up information for his soon-to-be-released book about Dan Patch. Was there a nugget of information that even he was shocked to find about the famous pacer, who turned 112 years old on April 29? Many books have been written about Dan Patch, but Leerhsen wanted to tell the complete story in “Crazy Good: The True Story of Dan Patch, the Most Famous Horse in America.”  The double wedding at St. John the Baptist Catholic Church of Josephine McNamara, Elisabeth McNamara to Thomas Quigley and William Kennelly was taken by Shepherd Photo Company of St. Paul.
