1870s Dead Horse Photo Sparks Mystery

Wisconsin city tries to unravel mystery of an 1870s photo of a man sitting on a dead horse

By ROBERT IMRIE Associated Press Writer
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(AP) It's a cliche, beating a dead horse, but it sure fits what's happening in a southeast Wisconsin city trying to unravel the mystery of an 1870s photo of a stovepipe-hatted man sitting on a dead horse in the middle of a dusty, deserted street.

The black-and-white picture taken in Sheboygan between 1876 and 1884 has sparked curiosity, speculation and jokes from people nationwide after a newspaper published a 2007 calendar with the scene. A response from readers prompted the newspaper to report about it. From there, it took off on the Internet and blogging.

2. It's Bush's great grandfather pondering foreign policy.
