The story seems to have appeared first in the Delphi items of the Lafayette Journal.

The famous black horse troop of horses of Culver Military Academy was practically wiped out of existence Monday night when sixty-three of the animals were consumed in the fire that destroyed the stables in which they were confined. The fire occurred shortly after midnight. The animals were valued at from $250 to SSOO each, and the stables and horses were insured for $22,000. The fire was caused from either crossed electric light wires, an incendiary or a carelessly thrown match, probably the latter as the troopers had returned only a few minutes, before the fire was discovered frdm a cross-country ride.
