William Boyd - cowboy or western movie star known as Hoppy or Hopalong Cassidy
with his white horse Topper in movies such as Three Men For Texas
William Boyd was born as William Lawrence Boyd on June 5, 1895 in Hendrysburg, Ohio
and rode off into the sunset on September 12, 1972 at Laguana Beach, California.
William Boyd was in many films between 1935 and 1948.
I once heard that he used proper English or speech in his movies to
influence kids watching to follow his lead, commendable.
