#5 Polack Bros.

While we were playing California we took "Stella" to Barbara's sisters' home (Billie) and of course the Press was alerted.

My sister lived in San Jose, Calif. We took " Stella " to her house in her car. They told us when we bought her that she was six months old. She was not. She could not have been more than six weeks old if that. She had no teeth. She had long white hair over most of her body, as is the case with very young baby elephants. As they get older they lose the white hair and get darker hair. Well she and I had a ball in the pool. I was her mama. We did so many things together. She always loved the water. I missed her so much when we left the show. It is funny a few years later I am not sure exactly how many, but it was a long time. We visited her, and Pom Pom & her husband Donaho ( sorry can't spell it.} had the act and I ask them if I could go up to her. She was big by this time. They said I could ( she had gotten tough. ) Well I don't know what I was thinking but she always sucked my finger when she was little. So I put my finger in her mouth like I used to do, and she went right to sleep, like she used to do. They were surprised, and so was I. For she could have bitten my finger right off. I never should have done that. BUT SHE REMEMBERED ME....Barbara....
