[Watering Trough on Avenue A]

In 1895, Caldwell Green felt Palestine's horses needed more attention, so he built a watering trough on Avenue A in downtown Palestine. This trough, with his name and the date, is still there, but now contains a flower garden. At one time after this picture was made, it sported the figure of a child on a dolphin in the center of the fountain.
