Original Toronto Star caption: Going, going, gone: The 29th Ontario Belgian Horse Association draft horse auction was held yesterday at the Canada Farm Show at Exhibition Place and more than 200 beasts of burden went on the block. Eddie Rankin, top, was one of the handlers yesterday whispering goodbye to the steeds. Sheldon Mador, 16, from Sault Ste. Marie took time to rest on the back of 17-year-old Algoma Queen and David Binns, 3, of Owen Sound took charge of his family's two champions.
