Where Are Our Four Horsemen?

Posted by Dan Jensen

In dramatic lore they are known as famine, pestilence, destruction and death. These are only aliases. Their real names are Parr, Davis, McKinney, and Landriault.

Our Four Horsemen (that would be Ralph Parr, Lynn Davis, Joe McKinney and Arthur Landriault) need to start riding through Carlisle's Creek, reading and posting. They are all prominent figures in Clear Creek lore but none have mounted a single charge on this blog.

Are our Four Horsemen just a myth? Have they faded into the mists of history? I wonder. And, I know others do also.

Give me my Four Horsemen; and when they shall die,
Take them and cut them out in little stars,
And they will make the face of heaven so fine
That all the world will be in love with night
And pay no worship to the garish sun.

About

Coach Carlisle at Southwest Texas

The photos in this album are taken from the yearbook, entitled The Pedagog, from Southwest Texas State University in San Marcos for the 1948/49 school year. Coach Carlisle was a senior that year. The photos tell a story of a very accomplished and talented athlete but also a person who had many other outstanding attributes as well. Thanks for Peggy Carlisle for supplying the yearbook from which these photos were taken.

The Houses of Carlisle

This album contains pictures of Webster High School and the George B. Carlisle Field House at Clear Creek High School in League City.

Hurricane Ike

Photos showing the aftermath of Hurricane Ike which hit the Texas coast at Galveston during the evening of September 12 and throughout the day on September 13.
