Also would you have any background info concerning the other Campbell Bros.elephants, "Venus" and"Baby Hamburg" that also died in that train fire? I was wondering, if perhaps this is the same Topsy,perhaps Venus's name was changed? Venus was a mature female Asian elephant.

Venus was a mature female Asian elephant.
This book was published in 1911 well after the Campbell Bros. fire.
