**Sunday Gazette: September 1, 2024**

Hello and happy Sunday, Riverside. We are on the hunt for photos of squirrels out and about in our neighborhoods, backyards, or anywhere else fun in town. If you have any you're willing to share with us, please email them to [newsroom@raincrossgazette.com](mailto:newsroom@raincrossgazette.com).

As a reminder, tomorrow is Labor Day, so City Hall, schools, banks, and other government offices will all be closed.

#### [HISTORY](https://www.raincrossgadfgdfgzette.com/tag/food-drink/?ref=raincrossgazette.com) 

## Prince Albert: Riverside's Remarkable Horse 

In 1908, Riverside marveled at Prince Albert, a horse with astonishing tricks, trained by James Cuthbertson. Their bond was so strong that Cuthbertson declined a hefty offer to sell him, making Prince Albert a local legend.

At the beginning of August, the Riverside Historical Society hosted a Zoom presentation entitled “Riverside Pictures in the Library of Congress.”The speaker was Leigh Gleason, the Head of the Reference Section, Prints and Photos at the Library of Congress, and formerly curator and director at the California Museum of Photography in Riverside. Leigh gave an inspiring and educational talk, pointing out some of the many treasures about Riverside in the Library of Congress collection. Among those, she showed several photos of a remarkable horse from Riverside, Prince Albert.

Prince Albert, a four-year-old dapple gray, appeared on the scene in late 1908\. He was trained by James Cuthbertson, who taught him numerous remarkable tricks.
