The sign is old and faded. There is nothing to say when the sign was actually put there. But I guess General got to that spot on July 30, 1906. I haven't been able to find any details through the library or the historical association to lend any more information about the horse, or who owned him, but when I do I will edit it in. He must have been special, and special to someone in the early government of Lakeview to deserve a spot in a corner of the courthouse yard.
I was thinking of asking the powers that be if I could repaint the letters on the sign. I'm sure they would be happy to have someone do that.
Good news!! The sign has been completely repainted (January 2016).
