MORRISTOWN HORSE SHOW HELD IN RAIN; Children's Pony Jumping Class One of the New Features of Exhibition New York Times, 8 October 1915: "Five children, none over 15 years, took part in the pony jumping class...Miss Ruth Brady rode Miss Helen Fiske's Maidstone, with which she took the reserve...." Could this portrait be the same equestrian Miss Ruth Brady, a few years later? www.christies.com/lotFinder/lot_details.aspx?intObjectID=...

Luther and Nicholas Tucker were the sons of Carll Tucker (1881-1956; Yale 1904) and the former Marcia Myers Brady (b. 1884). The Tuckers were members of the Rumson Country Club of Rumson NJ. Given Marcia's maiden name, it's probably reasonable to assume that the Brady children and Tucker children here were cousins. Luther Tucker (1909-2000) also attended Yale, and earned a divinity degree from the Episcopal Theological School. He was based in Shanghai while regional secretary of th World Student Christian Association (1938-1940), and became rector of the Indian Hill Church in Cincinnati. He married Josephine Pullman, and was father of four (Elizabeth, Marcia, Naomi, and Luther Jr.). He died while swimming off Old Lyme in the summer of 2000, age 91. articles.courant.com/2000-07-25/news/0007250608_1_seven-g...

Also, six children, but only five names? So one of these is a mystery girl!

Here is Tucker's report, which was published in 1914: www.archive.org/stream/reportofinvestig00newyiala#page/n0...
