I removed the following comment from the text of the article; it is interesting but certainly doesn't belong within the article.--Gloriamarie (talk) 21:30, 30 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

"My stepfather, a cowboy from Joplin, Missouri, was the one who sold the horse that was ran over the cliff and killed in the 1939 Jesse James movie filmed in Pineville, Missouri. His name was Sonny Clark and he was a real old time cowboy. He told me in the 1960s that he sold the movie company the horse for a thousand dollars, which he said was a lot of money for a horse at that time. He also told me he did not know they were going to kill the horse or he would not have sold it to them. He always kept a horseshoe from that horse on the inside rearview mirror of his 1958 white GMC pickup. He took good care of his animals all his life until his death in Webb City, Missouri in the 1970s."

Death of a horse

[edit]

The death of a horse is mentioned in "Production" and in "Animal cruelty"; the details are contradictory. ~2026-28514-34 (talk) 20:12, 11 May 2026 (UTC)Reply
